A close-up image of a text quote attributed to Carl Sagan. The quote is formatted with a large opening quotation mark and a small, blurred profile picture of the author in the top-left corner. The text reads: "I can remember one occasion, taking a shower with my wife while high, in which I had an idea on the origins and invalidities of racism in terms of Gaussian distribution curves. It was a point obvious in a way, but rarely talked about. I drew curves in soap on the shower wall, and went to write the idea down. One idea led to another, and at the end of about an hour of extremely hard work I had found I had written eleven short essays on a wide range of social, political, philosophical, and human biological topics... I have used them in university commencement addresses, public lectures, and in my books." Below the quote, the name "Carl Sagan" is written in bold.

Other people don't just shower together for fun? Shower sex is awful, but tandem showering is lovely. Even used to shower with roommates back in the days.

    I'd shower with my youngest (son) from time to time as long as we're both still comfortable with it. My oldest has grown past that tho.

    I used to shower with my wife but she would hog the water and have it on way, way too hot for my liking. It wasn't an enjoyable experience for me. I'd just have to try to get her to finish up quick so I can go and tend to myself alone.

    Thanks for reminding me of some great memories showering with my dad. We would have these like endurance contests with the cold water lol.

    With my partner I kind of squish myself against the wall so we have the water pouring between us. But you're right it's not as easy as just trending to yourself.
