From wakeup to leaving for work: change phone plugs, go to loo, shampoo in shower, apply toiletries (deodorent, leave-in conditioner, sunscreen), makeup (eye cream, foundation, blusher), blowdry hair till it's just about dry (while styling with fingers), get dressed (shoes, stockings, skirt, top, jacket), jewellery on, choose what to put in handbag, grab keys, run out the door. No ironing, eating, turning on/off appliances or attending to others.

I do everything you are asking about every morning and it takes about half hour. The longest part is shower and blow dry 10 min, makeup 8-10min . getting dressed is a snap, I have my outfit ready the night before, including my purse. I put on my underwear and stockings between blow dry and makeup, but I usually wear a garter belt or thigh highs. No pantyhose they are disgusting and take forever to adjust. Just ad skirt or dress, jewelry and jacket and I am off. Car keys are in hook by the door,

10 minutes when I cut out extra stuff like make-up, blowdry, stockings, jewelry.
I think it depends on the culture and the woman. I know plenty of women who are low-maintenance or who have jobs where image is not a priority (unlike PR, executives, media moguls, etc). Women from other cultures frequently don't gear up like American women do. However, I know someone in a wheelchair and it takes her a long time just to maneuver.

Depends on what I'm getting ready for. Work-30min easily. Going out, about an hour and a half, one hour is spent straightening my hair! If I leave it curly, it will take 45 min. Then there is the time it takes during the school year, my daughter is starting to care about her appearance!

It takes me an hour to an hour and a half. But if im not going anywhere special just a half an hour. But i like to have a good two hours to get ready, even if some of it isnt speant actually getting ready. I HATE rushing! it gets me very stressed out and then i end up looking like crap. So i like about two hours so i can take my time, Enjoy my shower,and not be rushing around like a raving lunatic.

I take about 15 minutes in the morning, including feeding the cats. I don't wear make-up, I rarely wear jewelry, I don't need to worry what's in my handbag -I only toss in my lunch and my current book. When I don't have to leave until later in the day I take a bit more time, but I'm not a morning person so then I rush it all.

Women take forever.
Men are finished in under 5 minutes, with keys in hand shaking hair dry as they walk to the car.

depends on the person i'd say anywhere from 10minutes to 2 or 3 hrs. i know it seems like alot of stuff to do but 30min should be plenty of time it all depends too on how fast the women moves and gets things done. there's no set answer but i'd say 30min average

The average time is whatever she says + 20-30 minutes.
