As soon as the shower is off: 🥶
Never. I go straight under my powerful ceiling fan and dry off.
I finish off with ice cold water, i never freeze afterwards
Having a cold shower at the end is probably number 1 if I made a list of things I do right in life that most people don't do. I feel so clean and comfortable for ages afterwards, no matter if I'm in my house or the middle of the forest, summer or winter. Best thing my dad ever taught me. (I mean he's still alive, so technically 'best so far', but I'm not holding my breath).
Towel robes are fucking amazing for this. Fuck Bernie Sanders with his advocacy for universal healthcare, and Vermine Supreme for his policy of "everyone gets a pony." No friends, true political power comes with towel robes. I will not rest until every man, woman, NB and child has one (if they want, I mean I'm not about force. And while I'm on this rant, is Vermin aware of how costly ponies are to keep? Hay alone, let alone a barn with their own pony healthcare. But ok yeah I'm typing this as I'm passing out, just food for thought)
I hate taking the time out to do all the self-care things.
Then when I get in the shower I just want to sit down and let the warm water drip down on me.
I am literally on lemmy enjoying sitting in the shower right now. The fun part about being an adult is now only my husband can give me shit. And he doesn’t. \o/
Waterproof phones are nice.
That's called "status quo bias" I think
Happened to me a lot as a kid. Not wanting to go outside and then saying no to getting back in. Not wanting to wake up or go to bed
I always hate the dry world, I would love living underwater
Life is better down where it's wetter.

Why do people hate taking showers in the first place? Is this a meme that just gets perpetualized online or do people actually feel that?
I hate them because I work 12 hour shifts and so I have very little time to myself at the end of the day. But what I hate even more is smelling like shit. So I figured out that if I buy a water resistant Bluetooth speaker and listen to podcasts in the shower, suddenly I don't feel like I'm cutting into my limited freetime as much anymore.
That said, if some technology came out that automatically bathes you while you sleep, I'd be an early adopter.
This is how the robots take over by drowning us in our sleep.
Autism, do not like the feeling at all
To add to this. The sensory experience of showers is a lot.
- being comfortable in your warm clothes
- having to take them off to get cold
- having to get wet and warm
- having to dry yourself with a rough (ish) towel
- Getting cold again
- Damp air makes it harder to breathe
- Putting on different clothes which potentially feels different from the used ones
- Getting out of the bathroom to non-humid air
- Coldness of the remaining water (hair etc) evaporating
I also have sound sensitivities, so the sound of water hitting the floor is also disturbing.
I developed a condition in my forties in which I'd itch fiercely after taking a shower. My doctor couldn't work out why but it had to do with residual water evaporating on my bare legs in warm weather.
After that I developed a resistance to showering, even though that condition has remitted for years now.
I don't like taking showers because it leads me to sad thoughts.
I hate it bc it takes some much effort for me to actually go and do it and even afterwards the rewarding feeling is barely there. If I could not take showers I doubt I'd do it even once a year, just wastes my time and mental effort
After taking off my toe nail the doctor has recommended me to keep it dry the first month and insisted to never let it get wet no matter what, so the first time I failed since I like taking showers if not daily at least twice a week, so they had to remove it once again because the nail grew wrong and piercing the meat so the second time they removed it now, let's just say I took a shower only once these couple of weeks and I now have a water phobia. I can't describe the pain of touching water directly on the meat when you don't have a nail..
Showers vs rain is a great lesson in consent. I did not consent to be rained on, I do not want to be wet just then so I don't like it. When I turn on the shower I consent to be rained on, so I like it.
Maybe it's more about clothes. I wouldn't want to be clothed while in the shower. I think I'll try getting naked next time I get caught in the rain 🤔
It's also about control where you're being rained on. The shower gives you targeted rain, so you can wash yourself with one hand while eating a (dry) pizza with the other.
Also, when I have rain clothes, I love rain, so I think you're on to something.
Tbh when I get caught in the rain I just embrace it and enjoy the feeling
When I get out of the shower: The dry world is a terrible place but I feel able to take it on and make a difference.
Thank you for your service.
I wish I had opinions as strong as this.
It’s honestly better to not
You really don't, it isn't fun
Well, I'd contest that, but my opinion on the topic isn't really that strong.
*Starts taking cold showers/baths*
Problem solved. I hate every second of this. Although it is nice when I can drink from showerhead and the water is cold instead.
It also saves time when 1 minute feels like 10. Plus it's cheaper and more ecological.Ngl cold showers in the summer hit hard
We live in a Wet-Dry World
