I haven't taken a bath in over thirty years (no wonder I live alone!).

Showers are quicker, cleaner (you don't have to sit in your own dirty water), and just much more convenient.

Stepping over the edge of a tub can actually present a hazard for those whose mobility has been affected by age, or infirmities.

The only use for a bath is the 'soak' theory, but if you don't have the room or finances to install a spa-style tub then why bother. You'll find that most new houses built today include a seaparate walk-in shower stall even if they have a bathtub.
