I've just moved into an old (1950's) home.
The only shower is in a tiny bathroom and it's so small that when I take a shower the shower curtain is stuck to one side of my body and the blinds from a window on the other side of the shower are stuck to the other side of my body.
It's very unpleasant, but I don't have the square footage, time, or money to install a new shower.
Is there any easy way to make an improvement?
If nothing else, I'm thinking of restraining the shower curtain with a 2nd rod or something. For some reason (probably related to airflow or temperature, I don't know) the curtain seems to be sucked inward a bit when the shower is turned on.

I would check on the type of shower curtain they use in hotels that have an arced curtain rod. This would give a slightly more room.
The reason the shower curtain sucks in when you turn the water on probably has to do with hot air rising and pulling in cold air at the bottom of the shower. Try leaving the curtain slightly open at the back of the shower to allow air to enter the shower without pulling the curtain in.
You could also put a layer of opaque material on the window and get rid of the window curtain.
Good luck!
