For as long as I can remember, my morning showering routine went something like:
Put on yesterday’s clothes
carry bundle of clean clothes to bathroom
Place bundle on an open space such as on a stacking rack or edge of sink
toss yesterday’s clothes wherever
shower
dry off
put on clean clothes
carry bundle of yesterday’s clothes out of bathroom
place in laundry basket in bedroom
Where does a bathrobe even need to fit into the picture?
My typical day is get up, put on a bathrobe, press f5 on SRK for 18 and a half hours.
Showering and clean clothes doesn’t even need to fit into the picture
Bathrobes are amazing. I have 2, one is my typical chilling one (after a shower, or late at night when I don’t wanna wear clothes but I wanna be warm). My sister used to tease me because I would always steal my moms as a kid, and she got me that one last year. SO FUCKING COMFORTABLE.
My other one is my ‘just had sex’ robe. I’ll let u figure that one out on your own.
I have 3. A silk one for the summer when it’s quite warm. A cotton one for more casual wear since it works in winter and not too warm summers, and a velour one for when a lady friend is around.
Read this and instantly thought this is so Zapp Brannigan. Val’s post reminded me of the Professor when he drops his robe and has THUG LIFE tattooed on his back.
Isn’t this more a cultural thing than anything. That’d be like asking “what’s the point of slippers” or “what’s the point of taking your shoes off at the door”
Welp, I just did a Google image search for “black people in bathrobes” and it seems you’re right. Women aside I didn’t see any guys in bathrobes; there was a Kwanzaa stamp, and one guy sitting there WHOA! too much, closing tab.
