Baths, but I haven't had access to a bathtub for the past... four-five years.
I miss it so much.

I guess it would be pretty annoying considering my long hair though. And the fact that I'm a fucking giant would also strip away some of the awesomeness...

Bah. Showers win.

As much as I enjoy baths, showers are more convenient, economical, and hygienic. Also, I currently don't have a bathtub big enough to fully submerse my 6'3" self in. My kneecaps always stick out of the water.

Showers. Our bathtub is so gross that I don't even like to stand in it long enough to take a shower, let alone a bath.

Definitely showers. I take a bath about once a year but I usually take a quick shower just before so I'm not submerged in a pool of my own filmy, filth.

Where do you go to get clean?
Bathtub
Shower
Both? I have to go and step in the bath tub to take a shower. Literally. I cannot not be in the bathtub when showering. And I always take showers. I prefer to keep it quick - a bath takes too long for me.

Shower - never been a "bath person".
Well my favourite soft drink just summed it up for me.

I haven't bathed in about... 11 years? I love me a shower.

Shower all the way on a day to day basis theres just something super relaxing about them.. especially the removable ones you can direct around your body.... baths are good for multiple people if you can squeeze 2 people into your bathtub then have snuggletimes!

Prefer showers for day to day, but a nice bubble bath can be awesome.

But always after a bath I have to have a shower to clean up after soaking in dirty water.

They serve different purposes. Showers are for getting clean, baths are a way of relaxing. Having a daily bath just seems impractical. I also feel uncomfortable just sitting there naked, submerged in water. I'd rather scrub myself, rinse, then gtfo to put some pants on.
This sums up my thoughts perfectly. A bath is the simple best form of relaxing, a shower is a good way to get clean and slightly less relaxing.

I like showers more, because I can have one in 10 minutes, while baths usually take at least 5 minutes to fill the tub to an adequate depth, and however long after that to get the temperature juuuust right.

Besides that, baths waste a lot of water compared to showers, and I've always felt that showers were more effective at making you clean.

Man, I have ALWAYS hated that. It is so annoying to want to soak and relax, but you can't fully do that when a part of your body is exposed and cold.

Showers.

It's nothing to do with convenience and comfort or what's better or not. I choose showers because I'm paranoid. I have heard news and the like of people who have fallen asleep in the bathtub and drowned.

Not taking that chance over here. I could easily slip in the shower, true but at least if I get knocked out, I have a less chance of dying if I don't wake up in time if I'm just lying on the floor with a head injury the I would if I got submerged in water and stayed there.

Depends. If I'm feeling dirty and want to relax my ass off, I take a bath and then shower.

But if I'm in a hurry and just need to get cleaned up, I take a shower.

I haven't had a bath since I was something like 10. (Not that I think it's a kids only thing.)
Of course not. It is also for women.

OT: I shower standing up, I piss standing up, and I damn well sleep standing up. For I am a man, and this is what men do!

Shower.

The only time I've taken a bath is when the shower was broken and that was was far from comfortable.
