Which do you think is more sanitary, taking a bath or a shower? I take baths everyday but I am starting to wonder if it is more sanitary to take showers, since you are not sitting in a tub with dirty water.
 
That is why I stopped taking baths because I started thinking, "Now how am I getting clean when the grime that came off of me is floating around and sticking back on me." Sometimes I would drain the water and then refill it which made me feel better but still. I haven't had a bath in I can't remember when. I'm a shower girl! I will soak in a hot bath once in a blue moon with some essential oils to help relax me but to get clean I like to stand up in the shower. Now don't get me wrong, I don't think bath takers are dirty (Love ya Jennifer!) I just prefer a shower for myself.

 
I generally take showers... Every once in awhile I'll take bath, but it's rare. We still rent, and there's something about the bathtub that I never feel like it's clean enough... Not even if I used bleach! I'm just weird like that though ~ I think it's the ring that bothers me if the tub has a permanent one! However, when I do take a bath, I generally stand up and take a quick shower to make extra sure I'm clean... I'm w/ Lisa on wondering how clean I'm getting in a bath... My DH was a compulsive bath-taker when I first met him because the house he grew up in didn't have a tub, only a shower... That was weird ~ A guy who took half-hour baths almost daily :wacko:

 
lol i love you to lisa!

im not dirty where i would see dirt floating around... if i go to the beach where i have sand all over me then yeah i take a shower but i dont go out alot and im never dirty nore have dirt on me, so i wouldnt see where its nasty to always take baths.

if your walking around that dirty then u need more then a shower! i wouldnt take a bath if i sweat neither.. well you get the idea. but i only take showers when i need to wash my hair and thats once a week, im a bath girl all the way!

 
I am just a shower person in general. To me, its like sitting in dirty water...no matter how much bubble bath you add.

 
i never have time to take a bath, and i share Little Lisa's points on how clean is the water when i just scrubbed all the dirt from my body into it ? If i do decide to take a bath, I always shower right after

 
Shower, for the same reasons as little Lisa

I'll have a bath once in a while for pure relaxation.

 
I prefer shower though because it's timesaving lol.

But, in Japan when we take a bath, we always take a shower after that so I love it because I feel more clean rather than just taking a shower.

We don't usually use the bubble bath, only Japanese bath essence and aromatherapy stuff.

 
The last place I lived only had a tub, and I lived with a bunch of guys in a band. They were all very close and they would all use the same bath water!! One would take a bath and after he got out another guy would hop in!! Each guy would soak in the tub for a long time and often they would make phone calls from the tub or we would all chat with them from outside the bathroom. I love taking baths, and I don't feel like they're unsanitary at all. BUT I never shared the bathwater with those guys! They were gross!

 
there was a signfield epiosde i remember and kramer was talking about how he hates baths cause its like the germs are having sex around him.

i rarely take baths and when i do i take a shower afterward. i dont know, when i take a bath i never feel fully clean.

 
On daily basis I take showers, but I do enjoy a bath every now and then. I always take a shower after the bath though.

 
my bath tub is pretty clean. I spray it down w/ scrubbing bubbles after every use, so I don't really worry about it. I tend to shower most of the time because it's quicker and I feel that I use less water (I don't know if that is truly the case though). I do enjoy a nice bubble bath though :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I'm a shower girl all the way! I will take baths to relax once in a while.

When I was living with my mom I would only take a bath. There was a window in the bathtub with a wooden sill and we weren't allowed to take showers.

I totally prefer a shower though. It's quicker and easier.

 
Normally, I take showers BUT I love baths and do those as well.

 
Like most of the girls, I usually have showers but do love the occasional bath to relax. Showers for cleaning, baths for chilling out! I usually take a book or magazine in with me though cos I get bored just sitting in the tub.

 
I like to chill out in the bath, shave my legs or whatever then have a shower afterwards to wash my hair, but if im being lazy the odd time I just have a bath.

 
shower bc i don't trust my roommate (or her disgusting boyfriend)'s cleanliness enough to take a bath in our tub...

i love baths when i'm home though :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
i take a shower everyday. i save (bubble) baths when i just want to unwind and relax and then shower afterwards.
