Dear Ann Landers, I would like to know how you and your readers feel about couples showering together. Is there a lot of this going on? After 20 years of a fairly good marriage, showering together has be-come a major bone of contention. My husband watches more TV than I do. He tells me that he has seen dozens of couples in the shower to-gether and they seem to be having a wonderful time. Henry thinks I am completely out of sync, because the few times we tried showering together, I didn't care for it at all. We have a standard-size tub with a shower. There is no room for anything larger. We are both average-size people. When Henry and I shower together, he gets the warm water and I get the damp steam. Frankly, I do not think there is anything sexy about this sort of togetherness. I have always looked forward to a warm bath as a wonderful oppor-tunity to relax at the end of a hectic day. I love the solitude and don't need any company when I'm in the tub. Also, showers wreck my hair. Am I alone in this? And please, Ann, one more thing: I already changed Henry's name, so don't change it to something else or you just might hit his real name, and he would kill me. -All Wet in Binghamton, N.Y.
Dear Wet,
I'm a tub girl myself. In fact, it's one of my favorite places to read the mail. If Henry enjoys showering with you, be a good sport and go along with it. You can take a bath later. The least Henry can do, however, is change places once in a while so you get the hot water and he gets the steam. How about it, readers? If you've tried it, did you like it? If not, why not?
