When you have a shower......

My fantasy is to have a bath installed as well as a shower but I'll probably be too decrepit to get out of it by the time it happens.
Meanwhile I always unhook the shower head and wash bits of me and then rinse them. Saves water. When I wash my hair it feels luxurious to have water cascading all over me. I only use soap and scent free products as well.
Having conducted my own mini survey, I can reveal that all men (well one of them) have their back to the spray.

No bath installed here, sadly. But a good powerful shower. I tend to mainly stand wth my back to it as I don't like too much water on my face.

I'm a bath person; my main problem when we stay oop north is that we only have a shower there and I get withdrawal symptoms after a couple of days. When I think of moving sometimes, any house on Right Move that doesn't have a bath puts me off straight away.

I face the shower most of the time, but do keep turning to wash off the bubbles.

Back to the shower so I can tip my head back and not get shampoo in my eyes.

I'm another that tends to rotate in the shower but I always spoil myself with hot water pounding the small of my back - absolute bliss

I turn around and around, then at the end I finish with it on my shoulders for a massage feel.

No eroticism has been knowingly portrayed, just sheer efficiency!

shy and kitty - the waistline of many men of gransnet age effectively prevents overhead shower water from directly striking their 'front bits'.

Too true, grumppa!

Bather by preference but when I have a shower after swimming it is always back to the water me to wash my hair.

Back to the shower. Lather hair and leave shampoo on while soaping the rest of me. Then rinse all, including hair, put on conditioner and rinse it off. Unhook shower head to do nether regions and rinse walls and shower door. I don't get those huge fixed, overhead shower heads. I think they appeal to males but wouldn't do for me and are no help for cleaning the shower.

No shower and I don't want one. I need my scalding hot bath at bedtime and - shock horror - I don't use soap.

Have you any skin left...?

I start facing the shower - so that I can turn the taps on and adjust the temperature, and finish up with my back to it while I wash my hair. My treat used to be L'Occitane Lemon Verbena shower gel but then I found that M&S do their own Lemon Verbena for £2 and it smells exactly the same

I turn slowly and try not to get dizzy. We no longer have a bath as we redid the bathroom with a bigger shower. I do miss it sometimes and try to get room with a bath on holiday if possible.

Back to the water every time! Eases the aching shoulders and lower back. Pears shower gel ...........

Front first, then slow turn to back, front, back. I love the water on my face actually.

Hate showers. I find a bath so much more relaxing, warming and easing of any aches and pains.

I haven't liked baths since as a child I had my weekly bath on a Sunday night and I knew school was coming up the next day. As I grew older I would notice how I started to worry about things whilst lying there soaking.

Have a daily invigorating shower now and love it and the worrying thoughts have gone away.

As the old phrase goes 'there's none so queer as folk'.
