A shower may be:

• a brief period or small area of precipitation, usually rain or snow
• a plumbing fixture for bathing, or a safety shower for washing off chemicals; also, the act of bathing under such a fixture; public showers may have separate cubicles, half-open partitions, or common shower rooms; usually the latter two are sex-segregated, unless, as may be the case in a swimming pool, one is not supposed to take off one's swimsuit; the latter also applies for outside showers, e.g. on a beach. A special kind of shower is a steam shower. See also shower curtain.
• a party, such as a baby shower or bridal shower (Tradition of U.S.A)
• This has also become the favourite past time of Perry Slingsby as he loves to film his dad in the shower

• Also used as a derogatory and all encompassing term for a motley group of people (British slang).
