Japanese people only hop in the bath aber washing themselves, which is much better. It would be beter however to just shower instead of filling a bath tub.

You wash yourself first, then you get in the bath--so its more like having jacuzzi w/o the jet streams every night. Personally, I think Japanese people tend to bathe more consistently than americans.

Non-Japanese are gross because they don't shower at night, meaning they spend the night wallowing in the filth they've accrued all day. And it's a rare person who washes the sheets every single day. The only reasonable non-gross approach is to bathe before bed, and then to bathe after waking up. And that costs both money (water and heating gas costs) and time. So you end out just picking which variety of gross you want to be. Japanese are gross because they don’t shower in the morning, meaning they start the day already pre-dirty.

It's not like you grow more deadly germs overnight. Besides, I'm sure you do a lot of "gross" things too which the Japanese consider intolerable. What’s wrong with showering in the evening?

Wouldn't do you much good in the humid summer time, but who knows. That lady in the audience who kept leaping to her feet must really piss people off at movie theaters! ;-) He probably takes his shower before he goes to bed.
