    That’s the way all our great-grandparents did it. But with a bowl of warm water.

    Uses just a fraction of energy & water. With the abundance of cheap energy, affordable piping and heating became affordable for the masses.

      I mean, I also use an actual shower for the rinsing and hair, I just use a washcloth instead of my bare hands or a bar for soaping everything up.

        That’s what I thought, hence I mentioned the bowl of water. Which was heated with wood or coal which had to be carried manually… in buckets… Imagine that :-)
