Bathroom Moisture

I am at a complete loss and could use some advice! I have a small bathroom (like 35 sq ft) and the walls are just drenched after every shower. Even if theyre short showers and the water isn't hot. I've replaced the ceiling fan with an 80CFM one that was advertised to be more than enough for the space. There are no windows and leaving the door open helps a little , but not much. The fan was originally vented just into the attic, but I had someone go up and they vented it to one of the gable vents. Not sure if I should've pushed for them to vent it through the roof? Anyone have any ideas? Going to be changing paint soon to a bathroom specific paint, but moisture damages way more than just paint and definitely want to get ahead of this thing. Thanks! submitted by /u/Professional-Worry23 [link] [comments]
