The coughing prevents water from condensing and running down my airways into my lungs. A person also might get much more water in their lungs in a shower by directly inhaling the water streaming from the shower head.
At normal atmospheric pressure, steam has a maximum saturated density of about 0. An average person breaths at an average rate of about 0. Most lungs have a total volume of 0. A steamy shower is less than fully steam saturated, so this time would be longer. Even when this happens, people reflexively cough, expelling the fluid. So the only scenario I think could lead to respiratory arrest due to breathing steam would require that they have pulmonary edema — perhaps by hyper-hydrating them with an IV line — and their cough reflex being suppressed — perhaps by anesthetizing them, or inducing a coma with drugs.
