Idk if it's just a Chamorro thing to grow up showering with your girl cousins? Like even sometimes with some cousins you randomly never met but your moms were like GO SHOWER TOGETHER AND HURRY UP. I was like 10 yrs old when I stopped showering with family.

Going to call it a pacific islander thing? I’m not chamoru, but I was told to go shower with my cousins to save water, even though we were making a mess and splashing more out
& this didn’t stop until maybe middle school yet we’d shower with our older cousins too so, depends?1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

But I mean, I’m filipino & we’d do that on Guam & in PI too. When we were young enough everyone, boys & girls, were showered together by someone’s mom with the palanganan & a tabo
while the other mom cooked.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Then once we were old enough to shower ourselves, only girls or only boys were told to shower together & speed up the process, when we were just playing

Ahhh no kidding! I always forget you're not Chamorro Blue
an islander thing it definitely is. It was a great part of my childhood.
That, and playing in the rain in our underwear on my family's street will stick with me.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

being yelled at when only 1 or 2 go out because we’re gonna get sick & then the rest of us go outside and the adults say “never mind” & let us play
