That's what bath mats are for..

Ok, but why not leave all the water in the spot that actually has a drain for it?

I believe wet bathrooms have a drain in the middle of the bathroom. This is the way we should build all bathrooms.

Bathrooms should have a floor drain regardless of whether they are of the wet variety. I personally hate the concept of a wet bathroom and the behaviour it encourages. Stuff gets wet that shouldn't, it just makes everything harder and expands the scope of cleaning while compromising "dry" tasks after someone else has used the shower if they partake in the undisciplined behaviour the design encourages. Also not a fan of all the functions being in one room.

I might be using the term wet bathroom wrong, I just mean the floor should have a drain (and be able to get wet obviously).

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I do both. You don’t want to step on a cold floor either.

Because your towel will get wet when drying your feet and such.

No you don't touch the towel to the shower floor, you do everything but that. Then you step into the mat mostly dry, not cold, not making a mess to finish.

...lift up your feet.

No, they are for the last drops missed while toweling in the shower

[–] uncertainty 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

After you've skimmed the water off, then towel dried inside the shower, the bathmat barely needs to get wet, especially if you step onto your towel when getting out.

That’s why I use ham
