I can stay from 20 to 30min in a bath. It's more for me to relax when I take a bath. I'm more of a shower girl but since I've been with my boyfriend I've start taking more bath.

For bathing it takes 15 to 20 minutes for me. For shower it only takes 10 to 15 minutes. This is in my case. I agree that women stay longer in the bath.

I take probably 15 min. My husband says I take too long but as a man I think they understand why we take so long. Woman have longer hair so it takes longer to wash their hair and woman have to shave there underarms and legs so that's time consuming also.

Yes, that is true, you have to love her or not, the way she is. I'd rather have a man complaining though for taking too long in the bath than complaining for not taking a bath at all! Atleast we are trying to take care of ourselves, it's a good thing the way I see it!

I think you maybe got the numbers wrong. At least in my house... Yes i would stay in the bath for half an hour as often as i could. It was soothing to just lay there and maybe have a special scent in it to enjoy. Now we only have shower and its a blessing you feel tired and weak if you stay there for longer than 20 25 min. But when we still had a tub, my husband would stay there for two hours almost every time, he always fell asleep.

I suppose eveyone is different. It doesn't take me more than 15 minutes at all. My husband stay in there longer than that. I envy him somewhat that he can do that, I can't stand being in a bathroom for that long at all.

It takes me about 15 minutes. I don't linger. I just wash and get out. Since we only have one bathroom I can't hog it.

In the morning I take a shower in 10-15 minutes, but if I'm taking a bath any other time of day I take as much time as I can get. Then I put in bath oils or bubbles, light candles, and relax. I've been known to spend over an hour in the bath this way. It feels good, and it makes my aching muscles feel so much better.

I normally spend between half an hour and two hours in the bath. Of course, it takes me only a few minutes to wash myself and that includes shaving, but if I want to relax, the tub is where I'll go. Quite often I've been known to bring a really good book with me and just sit and soak and read.

On weekdays, I'm always in a hurry so I just stay about 15 minutes in the bathroom. But on weekends and at night, I like taking long warm shower and I have a lot of skin care rituals to so I stay in the bath for almost an hour.

I don't take baths. I am squeemish so I would have to scrub the tub first and I don't have the health/energy to do that. I take showers and I am usually out in no more than 15 minutes.

I spend ages in the bath. I put bath cremes and fragrance oils in and just lie back and relax, for probably upwards of an hour, but not usually over two. I leave the hot tap running slowly so that it keeps the water warm enough and just soak away all my problems and tiredness. Sometimes, I have a twenty-minute bath, if I have to be somewhere and leave it a bit late, lol. Otherwise, I like to savour my aromatherapeutic bath. :-) Brightest Blessings.

I really dont take baths. I take showers almost all of the time. It typically takes me 10 minutes to shower, and it takes my Girlfriend almost 20. Im sure most girls do shower longer than men or even bathe longer for that matter
