Shower Poll [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by DonViejo (a host of the General Discussion forum).

Friends and I were talking the other day and the subject of Time in the shower came up. So the question was, basically what is the average time you spend in the shower at home?.

Now granted, your time might be limited because of obligations, but assuming you have no place you have to be right away and you need to take a shower..

Baths will not be included in this poll, cause a bath can be fairly lengthy or short. This has to do with the time you spend, just cleaning up and relaxing in the shower... please give an estimate and it doesn't have to be entirely exact.
