I could do it in less time but that would mean rushing things too much for my taste.

Agree.

30 seconds and less. I'm like a real life superman without the phone booth.

45 minutes usually. Maybe longer, depending on how long of a shower I take, often longer in the mornings.

I love a man who can be ready in 30 or less.

45 minutes in the morning, but that includes making breakfast.

Shower, shave, combed hair, dressed and out the door is a 20 minute process.

If I am going formal, add another 10 minutes for tie, cuff links and a final once over for quality control.

I don't know how anyone could get ready (male female or in-between) in less than 30.

My morning routine:

Brush teeth, floss - 5 minutes
Shower & wet shave - 20 minutes just shampoo, 25 minutes with conditioner.
Blow dry & brush hair (I have long hair) - 15 minutes
Pluck eyebrows (only necessary every 3 days or so) - 5 minutes
Apply moisturizer to face - 5 minutes
Get dressed (clothes ironed night before) - 5 minutes

Total: 55 minutes to over an hour, though I can do it in 30 if hurried.

That doesn't include breakfast - 10 minutes
Prepare lunch - 10 minutes

I usually shower again when I get home from work as I feel all icky if I don't.

It takes you 5 minutes to apply moisturizer to your face? Exactly how big is your head??

I'm 5 minutes in the shower (but I run the water a minute or two, to get warm water and warm tub before I get in), 1 minute drying off, 1 minute dressed, 5 minutes shaving, 5 minutes for teeth and hair. I'm a jeans and t-shirt guy so that goes quick. Never was into suits and ties.

I win!
