This is the way.
I tend to face away while soaping up, and I face the water when I'm rinsing off. I also shave in the shower, and I do that facing away.
OP please tell me that you don't just wash one side of your body.
I rotisserie chicken when I'm actually washing myself (and take down there hose to wash my genitals) but if I'm taking a hot shower to self soothe / emotionally regulate I face away.
Away, unless I'm stomping the turd down the drain, then I guess I'm facing towards it
Upside down so I get a good undercarriage wash.
Rotate like a pillar of shawarma
I spin too... have you ever tried spinning in opposite direction... really fucks with your head.
Pfft. Beginner.
Rotate like a rotisserie chicken.
Amateur hour. I start to spin around like a gyroscope the moment I set foot in the shower
I stand still and the shower revolves around me.
Relativistically accurate
I spin right round like a record, baby.
Right round right round????
Right into lovin' arms.
Except not, because shower sex is horrible. The loving arms can respect my space and wait until after I'm done showering, baby.
I sit. I close my eyes and tilt my head up, letting the drops fill my ears
I rotate like a döner
Denn döner macht schöner
Now I'm hungry, for you?
Rotate. Why would you just wash one side?
I cling to the ceiling like a frightened cat.
You must be my local spider. Sorry about the view.
I start facing and rotate as I wash different areas.
I go up and down while spinning like a yo-yo
I shower in the shower.
Yeah, idk wtf op is doing but it's definitely not showering
Predominantly away, unless whatever cleaning I'm doing requires otherwise.
Underneath? It's a "rain" shower, it doesn't matter how I stand.
Fancy
Germany.
I rotate like a rotisserie chicken.
I scrunch down in the shower tray like a spatchcock chicken.

I turn around so both sides can get clean...
Why didn't I think of that?
I do rapid backflips the whole shower to make sure I'm getting washed all over.
I face away from it because it offends me. It's a rocky relationship.
Depends what I'm scrubbing
I start out facing away while I test the water on my not so delicate skin until I acclimate, or make whatever adjustments needed. Then I alternate depending on where I'm washing. I tend to handle my hair last, which always leads to a cascade of shampoo and conditioner foam down in all the crevices which then need to be rinsed again.
Yeah, usually
Shower time is centrifuge time
Kind of both?
I hold the shower head in my hand almost the entire time, but when I need both hands (e.g. shampooing) I put it back in the holder and face away from it.
I can’t stand having the water running directly on my head or face - those waterfall shower heads are my nightmare scenario.
