Rumer Willis, one of Bruce Willis' three daughters, has admitted that her sisters and her maintain one family tradition that most will find pretty strange.

When on the What In The Winkler?! podcast, Rumer got candid about her bathing habits. Well, not just hers, but also of her two sisters, Scout and Talluleh.
"We all still take baths together, my sisters and I," she said. "And that's just the kind of house that I grew up in."
I mean, we all grew up in houses with family baths, for the most part. And we all also stopped group baths eventually.
"People might think that that's crazy and weird, but I don't," she explained. I suppose that goes without saying. The sisters are aged from 31 to 36, with Rumer being the oldest. This is quite the claim to make without any further elaboration, but thinking about it, I think this is elaboration enough.
Not only does she take baths with her sisters still, but she also admitted to sleeping with her mother from time to time. "I still sleep in bed with my mom," which is less strange, but still something that most kick to the curb when it becomes 'uncool.'
Are They Weird For Bathing Together, Or Are We Just Too Uptight?
This whole thing has got me thinking. Is it weird that they bathe together? Taboo over being naked is something that's taught to us from a young age. Privacy of the self is instilled into us.
Any who grew up with their siblings won't be able to remember the moment they went from group baths to being embarrassed over being naked.
I mean, they are sisters, so is it that weird? Of course, most can't think about being naked without thinking about sex, or anything even vaguely sexual. And anything that combines 'vaguely sexual' and 'siblings' is straight up weird.
But bathing doesn't have to be 'vaguely sexual,' just as it wasn't when you were a kid.
For the record, I still think it's pretty weird. But I'm also ready to accept that I'm just too uptight to accept it.
Besides, it's not like they'll bathe together every day. At least I don't think so, Rumer never explained the details. Is this a scheduled or spontaneous event? Do they often meet up to have a bath? There are three of them, and they're adults, can they fit into a bath tub?
So many questions, and frankly, I don't really want the answers.
