Who takes longer in the shower?
After having company last weekend, I have decided that men do take longer in the shower than women.
2 fellas, each took *at least* 45 minutes in the shower. I was showered, dressed and ready to go in 30 minutes... I used to think girls did take longer, but not I'm not sure...
I have more men staying this weekend. I'll do more research and let you know if my first observations were correct.

Yes I take ages in the shower... IS THAT A CRIME!?!!?!?
However men can decide what to wear in about 30 seconds
Rather than the prolonged ritual that sometimes begins DAYS in advance that women seem to undertake in order to establish exactly which shoes go with which dress.

Posted: 21:50 Mar 19 2002 Well if you have as many dresses and pairs of shoes as me, sometimes it *does* take you so long to decide!

Is this shaving, brushing teeth ect or is this just showering. 45 minutes just seems odd just showering or is it just me.
I can be ready and out of the door in 20-25 minutes having showered, washed my hair, shaved ect.

Same here. I honestly don't see the need to take that long. For a bath I can understand.

I've been known to take a while. But i do like to try and make myself look half decent

*sigh* okay, here's the full run-down.. (apologies from those who are eating..)
Activites
---------
1. Have a poo
2. Have a wee (nb. 1 and 2 may take place at the same time, maybe not.. depends on the day..)
3. Have a Shower
4. Try to get dry (Can take a while as I'm a hairy chap, I have been known to have to use 2 towels to get dry..)
5. Get Dressed
6. Clean Teeth
7. Exit Stage Left
Durations
---------
1&2 - Anything upto 10 minutes depending on how I feel
3 - 10-15 Mins (So I like to be Clean.. I personally don't see this as a flaw..)
4 - 5 Mins on average, can take longer depending on levels of steam in the room
5 - 5 Mins, Usually do hair at the same time..
6 - 5 Mins (I like to be thorough.)
7 - As long as it takes to fall down the stairs..
If anyone has a problem with this.. umm tough!

You mean you are supposed to wake up before leaving the house? When did they introduce that rule, no fair...

Posted: 01:42 Mar 20 2002 FAO Women: would it not be easier if every time you purchased a new item of clothing and/or pair of shoes you made a list detailing which of your other items said new item would match with? Hereby providing an easy-to-access referance guide in the event of having a limited ammount of time to get ready to go out. I ask merely out of curiousity!

i'd say men always from my experience are ready beofre women, ok they may shower longer, i take about 156 minutes which isn't that long, but women have to do a lot more like put on make up, shave their legs, do their hair, and then chose something to wear and try on about 10 outfits before going back to the 1st one they tried on. a man showers, shaves, does his hair and gets dressed straight away very simple.
