I should say at least 10 minutes. Generally, depending on if I shave, it's 10-15 minutes. I can take a full shower in 5-6 minutes, but I'll waste a lot of time just letting the water run over my head.

I probably spend too much time thinking about it, but I feel guilty enough about wasting water that I'm interested in setting up a greywater system for my house.

I have long hair, so that probably takes some time as I use conditioner as well as shampoo, but I'm also a clean freak and like to be and smell clean. Certain parts of the body which accumulate sweat and stinkiness more than others get scrubbed 2-3 times each shower. Normal daily hussle and bustle is more than enough time for a person's natural smell to be present.

10-15 min. is pretty standard for me, but I can take a 4-5 minute shower if I rush.

I had a roommate in college that took 45+ minute showers. Seriously. He would go in there around midnight, and he'd be in the shower sometimes past 1am.

The next morning when I would enter the shower, my first thought was always, "If there's goo on the bottom of the shower, please, please, PLEASE let it be conditioner..."

We've got a bench in our shower and I love it. It's great for shaving your legs too.

Why would there be goo on the bottom of the shower?

Well, no. But sometimes exceptions are made for drunk posts. Plus, I was drunk when I read this last night and I was the only mod on.

Last night's shower was great. I literally just sprawled out on the floor of the tub and sat there lying down for like 15 minutes.
