Men who take long showers.

I rinse and use body wash. Usually the shower itself is around 10m. I rinse everywhere too.

If you count shaving and using the can then we may be talking 20-30 minutes.
 
Jeez, why do some GUYS act like WOMEN, right OP? I too enjoy gender restrictions.

OP takes 30 second showers and uses this on his body, hair and teeth like a REAL MAN:

I used to take long warm showers just to chill. But nowadays it really dries up my skin so can't do it anymore.
 
What's a long shower? 20 mins? Hour? I usually take ~ 10 min., but every so often I like to take a 20 min warm shower as a form of stress relief. It is very soothing and helps with my joints.
 
The one thing I'm not doing during a shower is worrying about whether or not my time in the shower has exceeded the allotted amount required to retain my masculinity.
 
I shower until the hot water is no longer hot enough for me, so it's pretty long. During that time I'm usually just relaxing.
 
we have plenty of water up here in Canada, so I'm going to CONTINUE to enjoy my daily 40 minute hot showers and not worry about fitting into OP's gender defined man box
 
Wash my hair, with shampoo
Wash my face, with face wash
Wash my body. with body/shower gel

3 different products used, using shampoo for all, is like using sand paper for toilet paper, shit.
 
I generally have 20-30 minute showers. And I have a shaved head so it's not like I'm washing my hair. I dunno. I just enjoy it. It's kind of fucking cold right now, and I wake up freezing, and I like to just sit in the hot steamy shower and wake up. It's like my own personal sauna.
Masturbating. Having a beer.
Holy fuck why haven't I thought of this. Now my showers will be even longer.
 
Some people drink many cups of coffee in the morning to wake up, except I don't drink coffee, and therefore use a nice long shower as a legitimate substitute to accomplish the same.
 
My friends used to question me about this quite a bit. I've pretty much always taken 15-20 minute showers, just feels normal to me at this point.

Although I do brush my teeth in the shower and I also have a beard that needs some special treatment. Probably the two biggest reasons why I end up taking longer showers. Other than that, maybe I'm just a slow bather.

Also sometimes it's nice to just stand there and really enjoy the hot water.
 
Sometimes, if I've been up most or all of the night and come back home, I take a long shower and let the water just run down into my eyes so I can wake up again. Put my head against the shower wall and just soak in the vapors. It works.

I also shave most times - usually takes me about 5 minutes or so.
 
The fuck are you doing in there?
I can understand a bit more with the girls if they need more time to wash their hair and shit but come on. I just need to get in the damn bathroom because my hair stuff's in there and I need to leave the house.

I take long showers every morning and i think A LOT about work stuff @__@
 
I take <10 minute showers. As fast as 5 minutes. Maybe once a month I'll take a 20 minute shower because it feels so good, but I generally avoid this to not waste water and natural gas (used for heating up water in my house). I shower daily maybe missing a day once every few weeks if I had a particularly non-sweaty day.
 
Usually about 20-25 minutes. There's nothing better than relaxing in some warm water, especially right after gym time. Loosens up those tired muscles.
 
When I smoked I was known to enjoy a cigarette and beer in the shower. Now I usually put my phone in a water proof bag and listen to stuff.
 
I've developed many a algorithms during a long shower. Sometimes you gotta just sit in there and wait for the magic.
 
What is so wrong about taking some you-time? You know, sometimes I like to turn on the shower, turn off the lights, wait for the water to warm up the tiles, sit down and just think for a while as I let the warm water wash over me. Incidentally, this also works wonders against the occasional hangover.
 
Meditating. Relaxing. Thinking. Repeat.

I've found showers to be the calmest place for my anxiety since I was like 11. Anyone who wants to hate on my 30 minute+ shower can suck my balls.Lately I've felt kinda guilty since it's somewhat wasteful of resources but it's for my mental health so screw it.
