The steam from the shower condenses on the mirror, which is a colder suface.

Well, there you have it from everyone else. So I won't tell you the same thing about why your bathroom mirror fogs up. But I will tell you how to get it to stop!
Using car wax (such as tutle car wax and it's easier to use the paste kind than the liquid), polish your mirror exactly like you would a car, following the directions on the paste can.
You can do this same thing with all of your house windows. Not only does it keep them from steaming up, but it makes them easier to wash, as the wax prevents dust and grime from sticking. I do all of my house mirrors and the windows (outside and inside in the summer and inside in the winter).
Enjoy my little trick to cut through all the fog! :)

Maybe because of the temperature that a room closed gets(where most people wants privacy) and that great rise of temperature evaporate the water into fog that is impregnated to the mirror or in another cases the temperature of your own body all the times that you wish take a shower (wheter you are exhausted by exercises , you are very suntanned or rather you are simply horny .
I hope that my response has been useful.

because the mirror is cold and the hot water from your shower makes steam. the steam heats the air and causes the cold mirror and the hot air to make contact thus making the fog on your mirror.

Seriously? Because the steam from the shower condensates on the cooler surface of the glass...
actually does the same to everything else, you just aren't trying to look at your reflection in the toliet tank...

For the same reason that your icy glass sweats...The temperature difference from one side of the glass to the other causes water from the air to condense on the warm side.
