Woman sparks debate about the ‘normal way’ to shower after realizing she and her mother are opposites – so which way do YOU do?

A woman has sparked a fierce debate over the 'normal way' of showering after realizing she and her mother were looking in opposite directions.

Alexandra “Lovey” Lee, 29, from Southern California, opened up about her confusion on TikTok, where she has more than 100,000 followers thanks to her lifestyle and wedding videos.

The influencer, who uses the handle @alittlebitloveywent viral after she shared her shock at the way her mother showered.

“My mom just told me there are two ways people shower, and we just realized we both do the opposite,” she explained.

Alexandra said that when she showers, she faces away from the shower head so the water flows down her hair and back.

“Of course I'll turn around and walk around every now and then,” she noted.

But she recently learned that her mother is looking at the shower head and letting the water fall on her face and the front of her body.

The content creator explained that “this all started” because she and her husband were remodeling their shower, and she asked her mother for advice on where to place the shower bench.

“She said, 'Don't you want the shower bench behind you so you can put your leg up while you shower?'” she recalls.

Alexandra was baffled by her mother's choice until sherevelation'that they look in opposite directions while showering.

She said her mother was equally shocked by the revelation that they have completely different preferences.

'I think the normal way to shower is with the shower head behind you, looking that way. Is anyone else surprised by this?' she asked.

'Now I need to know: what is the normal way to shower?!?' she added in the caption.

Alexandra's 'shower rant' video has been viewed 4.8 million times and received more than 18,000 comments since it was posted a few days ago.

But if she was looking for a clear answer about the 'right' way, she didn't get one; the responses seemed almost evenly divided.

'People looking at the water… are you okay?!' someone asked.

“Who doesn't look at the water,” asked another.

“No, because voluntary waterboarding doesn't sound fun at all,” someone else added.

There were also many people who shared that they look both ways during the show.

'I'm constantly moving around like a rotisserie chicken! Equal time on both sides,” one user explained.

“I'm constantly rotating like a kebab,” someone else agreed.

“I look at the water when it's hair wash day and I look away from the water when I need to wash my hair,” another shared.
