Some people like to take a short sower, but there are also people who prefer taking longer bath with bubbles. What's your preference? Why so?I'm interested which preference is more popular. Maybe some of you are undecided which one is better for you?

Hello pyewacket:) I'm really good in late replies;) I hope it's not because I need few months to think what to say LOL I also find taking a bath in the bathtub relaxing, but only when it's cold outside. Sometimes I listen to music while bathing, it's even more relaxing than.

I prefer bath tub definitely. Because I like the feeling of being in the warm water. But in reality I couldn't afford to have a bath tub in my bathroom, I can only have shower due cost and space limitation :( But unless I have much free time, I will still choose to have the shower during normal days, because it is fast, water-saving and cost effective.

I think it's good solution to have both a bathtub and a shower in the house, but I also don't have both of them, only a bathtube.

Since I’m living in tropical country, the weather is hot here so I normally take bath at least 2 times daily. So to take a shower bath is more convenient for me. More over I don’t have bathtub in my house lol.

Do you have claustrophobia? Or do you feel only uncomfortable inside a bathtub in a small room? I don't like narrow places too, but only because I like ease.

I guess with the whole stress of saving water etc. I started taking quick showers which in the end does give me a lot more time in my day. If I look at all the water going down the drain after a bubble bath I just feel guilty about all the people out there who don't have clean water and here I am wasting it for bubbles (my teachers at school practically drilled this in our heads). I guess that's why I prefer taking showers, it's faster and makes me feel less guilty!

hi eroemorto. Taking a shower is saving time, water and money - I agree with you. It is nice that your teachers pays attention to such things like saving water and protecting enviroment:). When we are young, it is the best time to learn some good habits. We should think not only about ourselfs, I agree. have a nice day. jazgottt

Yes, if you're that kind of the person, busy one, it's nothing weird that you prefer to take a shower. You've specified preferations:)

SInce I'm usually always in a hurry I tend to use the shower more, but to relax i really prefer a nice bubble bath. I tend to shower during the week and indulge in the bathtub on weekends, that way I have the best of both worlds :)

I think it's quite popular solution, bathtub to relax and shower on busy day to make you clean & fresh quick. That's also mine point of view:)

I like showers. You never really get clean soaking in water that is dirty because you are dirty. Bathes are for relaxation, but showers are more practical.

Oh, I think sleeping in the bathtub is a little dangerous, I've heard that there are some cases, when a person is drowned in the bathtub.
