Depends on rate of flow of your shower versus amount of water you put in your tub to take a bath.\n\nFor example, I used to run out of hot water when taking a long shower.  Since I have a 40 gallon hot water tank, we know that I was using at least 40 gallons of water.  When I fill my tub with water for a bath I do not use 40 gallons of water so the shower was more wasteful.\n\nI recently put a restrictor in the shower head, and I no longer run out of hot water.  So the water use is much closer to that used in a bath.  \n\nIf you take short showers (say 5 - 10 min.), you probably will use less water than in a full-tub bath.  But if you take longer showers a bath may be a better option.\n\nPersonally, I prefer showers so that I won't be soaking in my own filth after a hard day of work.  However, I do occasionally soak in a hot bath to soothe sore muscles.

where i am was in the 50s today but it was raining a little bit, like drizzly and all. it's not that bad but i don't REALLY like it because it's just dreary and wet. but snow is a lot better. i love snow, and i don't mind the cold weather. i would much rather prefer it be cold enough to snow so it can ACTUALLY snow. i like going out in the snow, but not so much the rain. snow is better.

Both have benefits!! Showers are cleaner. Baths can do more to relax muscles. Both unless you have a good filter are really not the healthiest--proved--Our water has things in it  (and pipes that hold the water)that are poison to the body (not deadly but not good). And time adds to these poisons. Showers are easy to get into and quicker. With baths you can add so much-Salts, Bubbles,Oils,-Nice. Both can be enjoyed with others (keep it clean-gang). Both you can hide in (play, storm ). I would hate to choose-love them both.

Yes, in some specific circumstances, hotter water freezes faster than colder water.  All explanations are still hypotheses and there is no fully proven explanation yet for why.  It's known as the Mpemba effect.

I prefer to shower but I try to have a bath at least once a week.\n\nMy boyfriend on the other hand LOVES to take baths. Weird huh?

Anywhere COLD and snowy.  Hot sunny beaches are extremely depressing to me, summertime depressions me to the point of having to be medicated until cooler weather starts back.  It doesn't help that I'm also allergic to the sun.  I stay inside all summer with thermal drapes drawn and only come out at night, PS I also work as a Phlebotomist (drawing blood), hummmm, might be a connection there.  Seriously, anywhere COLD.

I dont think thats something you could do by taking cold showers, body mass does make a difference when you are getting into the pool.. but I think the more you do it, the less it will matter to you being chilly\n\nYou'll get used to the feeling of chilliness.. but your body wont necesarilly adapt to it

When you are cold, your blood goes to your body's core, away from the extremities.  Once you hit a warm shower, your body dumps blood back to your extremities when they're still cold.  This causes a drop in your body's core temperature, causing you to shiver.  This is experienced by Arctic/antarctic swimmers.  Once they get out of the water and into a warm bath or shower, their core temperature drops because their blood is running through relatively cool arms & legs.

Yes!\n\nWhen I take a bath..I'm forever refilling the hot water. I have the bubbles of course and some of my favourite music playing. I then lay back and close my eyes.  Baths are so relaxing and enjoyable, I'm always in the tub for the longest time. :D

Well, I hate the cold, and I hate driving on slippery roads, so unless I can just stay home, I prefer rain.  Snow is pretty to look at, but again, if I can stay home.

Well,  Hot & Cold are not only subjective (What's Hot for he is cold for me) and relative.  Better to think of temperature.\n\nTemperature is the measure of average kinetic energy.  The hotter, the more energy and vice versa.  \n\nAlso, as temperature is an average, some of the "hot" water may be cold.  In fact, there could be a several molecules that are frozen - we'd never know - but the average temperature is "hot."\n\nWhen you mix them heat is transfered from the high average kinetic energy water, "Hot," to the low average kinetic energy water, "Cold."  The "Cold" water absorbs the heat in the transfer and the results is as follows...\n\nThe "Hot" water is cooled, and the "Cold" water is warmed.  The results is 24 oz's of water that has an average kinetic energy, or temperature, higher than that of the "Cold" water, and lower than that of the "Hot."

What I love is to soak in a bathtub filled with hot H20 on\na cold winter evening. Lots of bubbles!

I think if you have a really hot or really cold bath it can make your heart beat faster so its not so easy to get to sleep. I always have really hot baths and i find this! But a warm bath is good for relaxing before bed.

hot showers, warm weather, hot food, cold drinks, hot cookies, let's just say the only thing i like to be cold is whatever i'm drinking (except for hot chocolate and hot coffee)

Mine's gotta be ice - I absolutely love the cold! Fire doesn't really appeal to me (I hate the heat - even from a warm oven, or a burning fireplace). Besides, ice can be scuplted into different shapes (which just proves how incredibly versatile it is).\n\nFire on the other hand is just a flame licking all over the place, burning with passion and searing with heat.\n\nThat of course, is not to say that I'm a cold hearted guy with an icy stare. I just like the ice... =p
