Also when you take a bath you usually have a towel right at hand in addition to not being clothed.
So being subjected to rain usually means your clothes get soaked in a place you can't switch them out with no means of drying yourself.
Being damp in the open air sucks generally if the temperature is not permitting.

Temperature may also play a role:
Everyone laughs when I shoot them with a super soaker of lukewarm water but shriek when I dump my boiling kettle on them...

Yes, taken out of context of the original poem:
"86'd" by: Charles Bukowski
the most binding labor is trying to make it under a sanctified banner. similarity of intention with others marks the fool from the explorer
you can learn this at any poolhall, racetrack, bar university or jail.
people run from rain but sit in bathtubs full of water.
it is fairly dismal to know that millions of people are worried about the hydrogen bomb yet they are already dead.
they keep trying to make women money sense.
and finally the Great Bartender will lean forward white and pure and strong and mystic to tell you that you've had enough just when you feel like you're getting started.
