How old were you when you started taking showers instead of baths?

[Gizmo j]

I think I was about 9.

How about frequency of showers and baths?

 

[WelshBloke]

49 and still prefer a bath if I have the time.
You cant read a book and drink a beer in the shower!

 

[Printer Bandit]

bath = body soup

No poll?

How long do you take between washes that your bath turns to soup!

You can absolutely drink a beer in the shower.

I wear glasses so reading a book would be out of the question anyway.

I was 11 I think.

I haven't taken a bath in 12 years despite having a super nice "garden tub". My wife takes one like every night though. Always been a shower guy- got my pipes tweaked so the water pressure is 3 PSI below "Electric Power Washer"

My brain cant remember that far back, about 30-35 years ago I think....

Not out of a glass like a civilised person! monocle.jpg
And where do you put the tray of nibbles?

What's the problem with glasses in the bath?

I honestly don't really remember. Probably like 10ish maybe? Though it could very well be before that.

I sometimes still take a bath but it's mostly just to relax. Throw in some bath salts and I'll be in for a good time. I need to look at a way to recirculate the water to heat it though. An indoor hot tub would be kind of fun.

They'd fog up and also get water droplets everywhere on them. Glasses and a moist environment don't mix. I used to absolutely hate that when I had glasses. Even a little bit of drizzle was super annoying.

I wear my glasses in the bath all the time. Just give them a wash in the warm water when you get in and they dont fog up any more as they are hotter than the air.

5 or 6. Mom started hosing us kids down in the summer before she'd let us in the house.

 

[Denly]

Don't know I grow up without a bath tub so ...forever?

 

[zinfamous]

By 6, at least.

 

[clamum]

It was probably a little later than most, maybe around 10 or 11? Something like that.

 

[RLGL]

Did not have a shower in the house I grew up in,

 

[FeuerFrei]

Elementary school - can't narrow it down any further.

I dimly recall showering with my father at least once ... at an early age, maybe a toddler.

 

[lxskllr]

My first apt had a clawfoot bathtub only. I still take the occasional bath, but haven't in awhile.

 

[snoopy7548]

Probably around 10 or 11. Showers were cool back then...

You can shower as you leave the bath.

 

[NutBucket]

My kids started getting showers as soon as they could stand up pretty much. I don't ever recall taking a bath so it must have been early for me too.
