SWMBO likes a bath, so when I did the new bathroom it got a bath and a shower. Shower gets used most and always nice after a ride at this time of year, but in the past year having regular baths worked really well on the legs.

The last bath I had was over a year ago after an 82 mile, 9,000 ft climbing sportive.
Hardly worth keeping it for the off chance I put myself through that purgatory again

Raw saddle sores on gooch top that. By alotThere is something worse, it's getting into a steaming hot bath when your man bits hit the water
Ah, yes....anyone who doesn't wash the same way as you is 'dirty' eh?
I use a bath 90% of the time. I also use a clever substance called soap. This holds the excess dirt in suspension, so it doesn't stay on your body.
Also, after 50 or 60 miles, a good soak will be a far more thorough means of cleaning your intimate parts than a pint of water trickling over you.
A shower is just for freshening up.

Shower in the morning. Bath at night and after exercise. I once lived in a house without a bath. Utter misery.
A walk-in shower big enough for two....

Shower for me.At 73 my flexibility is not all it should be. Her in doors would object to me using her as a bath hoist.

Showers for me, not baths, thank you.
In our last house we removed the bath and replaced it with a shower cubicle, as we both prefer showers to baths. And the house we moved to recently only has a shower, which is no hardship for us.
I do concede that, after something like a whole day of hard gardening, or some such real hard physical labour, then a soak in a hot bath may ease out some of the aches and pains. But, for us, such events are so few and far between that it's not worth keeping a bath for literally a "once in a blue moon" event......

Maybe I'm odd but I really don't have a problem with "wallowing in my own filth". I quite like it.

Quick bath for me. I've never been convinced a shower gets everywhere.
Get yourselves a bath big enough for two, or is that a blue moon event?

Shower 99/100.
I don't feel clean after a bath & so I pull the plug & then shower straight away.
Baths are to remedy aching for me.
