Did/Will You Take A Shower This Week?
« on: August 09, 2016, 10:46:22 AM »
Not sure if there's a thread about this, but let's vote. Will you only take once, twice, etc., only Friday for shabbos, hot or cold, with shampoo and soap or not. I'm not sure how the poll should look, any suggestions?

Shower twice a day with hot water, soap, shampoo and sometimes significant other. TMI?  :-*
could lead to actions which would require another poll

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

The article is factually wrong.
It's interesting, they define three different types of answers, and none is an outright denial!
If you don't care why would you comment?

Adjust poll to reflect if normal hot shower, 2 minute lukewarm shower, or uncomfortably cold shower.

Halacha is overrated, no? Much more important to be normal.
You were correct in your last post that he should specify the poll by the temp of the water. By "regularly" in the poll, I assumed as regularly often as I normally take one - not my regular temperature.

At the risk of getting yelled at for cross-posting...

For those who dont shower in the 9 days

https://youtu.be/3nSz7qWOlqI
and to translate for our non-members...the hebrew word for ass (as in donkey) and the word for someone who is stringent are similar. 
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Why? You are conservative?

As I specified here, I viewed "regularly" as how often I take one. Never seen a source that you need to limit the amount of showers you take, only the temp.
