Amusement

A nice glass of wine to go with the coffee

NGL I never understand why people do things in the bath

It's relaxing, but I wouldn't spend hours reading or something, it's just uncomfortable and you look like a raisin afterwards.

My partner likes to spend a half hour or so reading or watching a show. She uses these trays to hold her book, some bath soap, and some cola light.

It's the only warm place in the house.

as a gay male I can at least partially help break the illusion:

1. it's warm
2. gravity isn't being as much of a bitch on your joints as it usually is (if you're over 30 OR breasting so boobily that you have back pain)

thanks i'm here all week

I used to take a 30 min bath to ease my dermatitis.

Where's the hair wall?

It's a lovely way to unwind after a long day. Soaking in water takes weight off your joints and bones, the heat feels nice, and I'll usually put a show on my phone to unwind with an episode before I wash up.

Why even bathing instead of showering? It feels like swimming in your own dirt, while it's so hot you sweat, but can't really sweat, because it's wet too and because it's wet you can't really read a book or do something else.

ADHD brain can't handle a bath. It's too much relaxing and not enough doing.

These things are great for charcuterie boards

I feel personally attacked!

That's a beauty!

As a straight male I can confirm these benefits.

Unfortunately I don't have a bathtub that works with a tray- the wall side is too close with the wall

I don't usually take a bath to feel clean, I take one to relax

Hence the tray, you do both and it's better than either. Wish I had one

I have that exact tray!
