Do you share bathwater?

[MuffinMooo]

I'm just curious as some do, some don't

We fit quite easily. He gets the tap end though (gentleman)

I usually make Dh get in first so I can lean against him like a pillow.

No. Yuck. We all shower.

The kids share a bath (2&3yo) but they never get particularly dirty unless it's pasta night and me or dh will sometimes get in if they ask for the last five minutes but we'd have showered in the morning. Otherwise no chance. I'm a little ocd anyway I'm told!

If I have a bath its me and a book and a glass of wine and the door locked.

My children do. No way am I running three seperate baths

We don't even have a lock on bathroom door..

I couldn't not have a lock on the bathroom door. Especially when we have visitors.

Jeez, how dirty do some of you get before you bathe? I like my bath boil-a-lobster hot and only stay in 10 minutes, dh likes to soak in warm water for an hour, the perfect combination and I don't leave the bathwater in a gross state, thank you, it is still all bubbly. We have an enormous tub and this way I get to fill it guilt-free every other day, lovely.

"I couldn't not have a lock on the bathroom door. Especially when we have visitors"

Yes, that's not nice for your visitors.

Why isn't no lock nice? In out home door open means it's free, if it's closed someone is in there.

I hate visiting people that don't have locks on their loos and bathrooms.

The thought of this actually makes me feel sick.

I don't have baths because you're effectively bathing in your own dirt (unless you shower first I guess) and the thought of bathing in someone else's sweat and everything to do with 'downstairs' literally makes me heave.

Just.....why?!

That might work in your home Art but its not internationally recognised.

No bathroom lock always has me doing this hover over seat/hand reaching for door in case someone comes bounding in I realise I may have issues

I've yet to die or get a hideous disease from sharing bath water.

I also like boiling water bubbles and am.in for a max of 15 mins..every night, shower in the morning.

When I get out the water is still crystal clear.

"No bathroom lock always has me doing this hover over seat/hand reaching for door in case someone comes bounding in I realise I may have issues"

I don't see why you'd have issues. It is very awkward if you're visiting and the people the house, or other visitors, walk in on you on the toilet. It happened to me once when the lock just wasn't good enough and the door opened anyway. It was at a party and both of us were mortified. If I'm not sure a lock is present or good enough I usually put my (heavy) handbag against the door, but it's very uncomfortable.

Yep we share bath water, I'm usually 1st in though tbf...

Depends where I am. In the now infrequently visited main house then yes because the bath is still filled by hand (well huge jug) in the normal house with normal taps then the kids come in with me sometimes but not one after the other

No. My mother was one of 8 and they had a tin bath in front of the fire in the lounge once a week, their Dad would go in first and then their Mum and the children in age order. I don't think they ever threw the baby out though.

Sparkling is that why you don't come and visit us?
We have no lock but also never have visitors (at least not in the last ten years).

Went potholing with a large group when I was a student, got back to the boarding house and they could only produce enough hot water for about three shallow baths, not very hot and no bubbles, so we all had to trlple-up and draw straws, that was not OK,

Sharing with family, OK.

How do those who find bathing in a partner's bathwater dirty, disgusting and unhygienic feel about sexual intercourse>

After all this too involves the possibility of making contact with somebody's skin cells. There's also I imagine a risk that this thing called a 'poo crumb' (am not absolutely sure what one is) might get dislodged in the process.

Put a lock on Duck and you might find you are inundated with visitors.
