I haven't had a bath for about 50 years. I really can't think of a reason for me to take a bath.
Are there times for a bath instead of a shower or vice versa?
I think showering is better for every day bathing. Bathes are good to relax or soothe aching muscles.
i take baths.
Baths are good for soaking and relaxing. Showers are for when you are dirty or have limited time. Also a shower for when you wash your hair. You can't rinse your hair very well in a tub.
Showers, seldom; only when you must wash your hair.
Baths, as often as possible...long and slow and wonderful.
