SoS

Women are known for having many love/hate relationships, like with our ex-boyfriends or with carbs. But then there’s also our greatest frenemy of all: showers.

This is an indisputable fact and an issue every female has dealt with at one point in her life. Our shower schedule gets in the way of everything, from our gym routines, to our weekend activities. Deciding the optimal time to take a shower is crucial because everyone knows how horrible it is for your hair to wash it every day.

My life changed for the better back in sixth grade when I was blessed with my very first hair-straightener (shout out: Hot Tools), you can thank my fellow Jews at camp for that one. Literally, my life changed — no longer did I look like I stuck my finger in an electrical socket, I now had hair to be proud of.

Men have it sooo damn easy; they hop in, wash themselves for about 7 minutes, walk out and are good to go for the night. For the female, however, this is a 2-hour commitment. Getting ready for a night out is difficult enough when choosing an outfit, so trying to tame that Jew-fro (No? Just me?) is even more of a challenge.

The struggle is real and I am here to break it down for you. Men, if you’re reading this, hopefully you can learn to understand and stop rushing your girlfriend when she’s trying to get ready for dinner.


1. Hair washing
2. Shaving
3. Spending a fortune on hair products
4. The process afterwards
5. It’s f*cking cold

wtf??

i love showering...!!!

to prepare for a function, 1 hour is enough for me...

and it's not cold...

conclusion: can't understand the purpose of this poll

Wtf - exactly my reaction when I read the thread title.

I love showering. In fact, I like taking long showers when I'm not in a rush.

The 5 reasons there, I can only feel for 1, washing hair needs some planning but it isn't anything that troublesome. I don't shave often, there are other forms of more convenient hair removal. 3 and 4 doesn't affect me much. I can get ready for a dinner/night out in about 30 minutes to an hour. Cold? It's Malaysia, you would come out from the shower and sweat right after most of the time.

Most women I know love showers.

They are the one taking 1 hour in the toilet while I slept on the couch waiting for them to be done....

lolwut? I don't hate it at all.

I like to take my own sweet time scrubbing my body and sometimes do a lil bit of thinking while shampooing my hair

EVERYONE

should shower at least twice a day.

Morning and Evening.

I love showering. 1 hour is enough for me

Most of us love shower, especially with the environment in m'sia, just so damn hot

I believe the correct usage of the showerhead does help?

this. But somehow there are still a lot of people only shower once daily. I feel that yucky, but different people different lifestyle..don't know what to say

Ang moh usually don't mandi in the morning or evening coz they 'dont sweat'.

but for me i sweat or dont sweat have to mandi twice a day... unless I wake up at 5pm, then maybe once... lulz

Lol, my gf enjoy shower, & she like cold water bath as well.

for me at least twice per day...cz my place here too hot..hah..face oily..

1 hour enough for me to shower, comb hair & make-up... just do rebonding if hard to manage fizzy hair. well this is malaysia we are talking about. hate shower? really?

I love shower a lot... i can managed to shower, dry my hair with hair dryer, apply make up in less than an hour...

And showering at least twice a day is a must.. can't understand why TS said women hate shower...

At least i don't and ladies around me don't

all the ladies I know loves to shower. they can even bath for almost 1hour wasting water only

lol so true! Especially when we need to decide if we should style our hair when wet, whether to wash hair or not, whether to wash hair everyday or once in two days... Gosh.

Showering actually requires scheduling

hmm ya i agree with some, gals that i know loves shower ... closes would be my mum and sisters ...

Malaysian weather freaking hot. I bathed at least 4 to 5 times a day. Plus I go to the gym during the day.

Try living in overseas where the weather is freaking cold,
