I have always done this…is this strange?? Is there anyone else out there who brushes their teeth in the shower??
Yep, I brush my teeth in the shower. Shave in there, too.
Why on earth is it strange?
I’ve done a number of things in the shower. Shaved, brushed teeth, smoked a cigarette, eaten a donut, among, ah, other things. I usually wash myself while in there too.
Now if you’re only brushing your teeth in the shower, then yes, that’s strange.
I used to do it all the time when I was living in the dorms. Wash hair, apply conditioner, soap and rinse body, wash face, brush teeth, rinse out conditioner. It beat standing there under the running water doing nothing while my conditioner soaked in, then having to jockey for a position at the sinks to brush later.
I also brush my teeth in the shower. I do it in between conditioning my hair and rinsing conditoner out.
One more who does it while waiting for his conditioner to do its thing - it just saves time, and plus you don’t have to worry about accidentally getting toothpaste on your clothes. I just switched to an electric, though, so my days of brushing in the shower are sadly over.
I smoke and drink in the shower too.
Also brush my teeth in the shower. If I have time, I will also eat breakfast in the shower as well. Usually its just a bowl of cereal.
shudder I just don’t understand people who brush their teeth in the shower. Ick! It just creeps me out!
Max.
I picked up the habit of brushing my teeth in the shower from my ex. It seemed strange to me at first, but now I think it makes complete sense. As most have mentioned, it’s a time saver and no white drips to worry about on clothes.
Hey, Horseflesh, your entry reminds me of when Kramer (of Seinfeld) starts doing all this other stuff while he’s showering, like preparing a meal. What a wacky guy, that Kramer. Man, I miss that show. So glad it’s on every day. But, I digress. Back to the subject. Ahem. Yes, I do brush my teeth in the shower. My three-year-old daughter does, too.
Speaking of electrics… Have you considered shaving in the tub?
Yep. Brush teeth, shave and piss all at the same time in the shower (although it certainly requires a great deal of concentration).
If you’re really able to concentrate, you can also add washing your hair to the above 3 activities. But you either have to attach your toothbrush to the showerstall wall and thrust your teeth onto it, or do the same with your razor and then rub your face against it.
But all 4 activities can be done at once.
Just not real well.
Ummm…I just stopped in here because in Brittania “Brushing your teeth” is whacking off. Though this was going to be one crazy thread.
Brushing your teeth? What ISN’T a euphamism for whacking off these days?
I don’t brush my teeth in the shower because i like to use nice cold water for rinsing. I don’t shave there, because i like to shave in front of a mirror. I don’t jerk off there because i prefer to be sitting or lying down, as it’s more relaxing.
Although i usually go to the toilet first, i have been known to pee in the shower.

I brush there too. When I was younger (11) and all consumed by reading, I used to want to invent some kind of protective cover that would let me read a book while I showered.
Also- I sing in the shower
dispense invaluable advice to the younger generation ( my kids)
threaten my husband about some purchase I may make
and plan my day as I get all sudsy and clean…
I do it, too. It’s better than slopping toothpaste all over my clothes, which I am wont to do. And I don’t have to worry about leaving a trace of Colgate crusted on my mouth.

I brush in the shower, It makes it easy for me to clean up my beard when i’m done brushing. Brush first, then wash and condition hair and beard. I’m all clean and don’t have to wash up twice.
I brushed my teeth and shaved in the shower when I was in the dorms. At first, the bathroom was very tiny, and it was just convenient to do both in the shower than make a huge mess over the tiny sink. Then I moved into a community bathroom dorm. I took everything into the shower stall with me to get it all taken care of at once.
