women have more to do in the shower than men, we have our legs and other stuff to shave , and i think women r more into cleaning themselves and do a more complete job of it than men,plus we clean out the shower mess they left behind while we r in there , or at least that's what i end up doing besides cleaning up my mess too

If your husband is anything like my bf he complains about 20 minutes in the shower, but then will spend 20-30 min on the toilet with a magazine, you know, like no one else in the house needs the toilet. I don't think 20 min in the shower is too long, especially if you need to shave. But who cares! Don't let someone bug you like that. If you want to be in there for half the day, it's your perogative as long as you are not bothering anyone or running the bill up more than you can handle.

20 minutes sounds about average to me. An hour would be excessive. I bet the person who only spends 2-3 minutes is a man!

If it's affecting what he needs to do tan reconsider when you're taking your shower.
Personally, I think for a woman to clean her body thoroughly you need at least 20 min.
I use a Dove for my face, Summer's Eve Fem Wash for unmentionable areas, bare-feet foot scrub, Garnier Fructis Shampoo, not to mention shaving and brushing of teeth (which I think everyone should do in the shower).
When I'm in a hurry, I'm lucky if i get out of the shower in 20 minutes

If someone else is waiting to use the shower, 15 minutes is usually enough time. Otherwise, I take my time ... usually around a 1/2 hour. Men do have to realize, that if they like their ladies soft and shaved ... it does take more time to achieve that. Shaving alone takes about 10 minutes longer, then applying lotion ... another 5-10 minutes. Be patient guys!! :)

No, I don't think so either, I spend 15 minutes in the shower. And my brother takes 30 minutes in the shower!

I'd say being in there over 15 minutes is a bit excessive, but that's just my opinion.

No that's fine. I spend about 30 mins in the shower. But if you're hands are getting pruny. After taking a shower you should put lotion on it will help them to stay soft

I'd be in there a hour at a time if I could. But if you both need it you should keep it at 10-15 min. Just for politeness's sake

I spend an hour in the shower when I can.
20 minutes is nothing. ;)
