Shower Sex 101

When you have sex with the right partner, it is naturally enjoyable. But variety, isn't that what makes life interesting—ever tried diluting the mixture with water?

One way to add excitement is to invite your partner to join you at a small waterfall. This can help improve your sex life or just add some fun to your relationship.

Do you know what I mean? If you want to have sex during your period without the mess, shower sex could be a good option. It can also help you hide your noises from a nosy roommate. Additionally, if you can't wait for your sheets to dry, shower sex toy might be a convenient choice.

It's a universal fact that shower sex can be hot and steamy in the most remarkable ways when done correctly. It's not for everyone, and getting dirty while trying to get clean can be riskier than movies suggest.

You're not alone if the idea of whooping while water pours over your partner's entire body sounds too good to resist. Before you get your groove on, take into account these shower sex safety precautions to keep things classy yet safe.

Safety Tips

- Invest in nonslip accessories. Whether one is alone or in a partnership, shower sex has an additional risk of sleazy behavior. Get a nonslip mat for your shower as a safety measure to make the surface less slippery and more gripping. Additionally, footrests and suction cup grips are available so you may better support yourself in novel and uncomfortable positions.

- Remove razors, bars of soap, and shampoo. Throwing your bath accessories around in the middle of things can be annoying and unsafe if it causes someone to slip. Not to mention that you might require the area the shelf or ledge provides to position your hand or foot in a useful way.

- Store your condoms in the bathroom. You understand that hurting someone is not the ideal pre-intercourse scenario, so steer clear of last-minute naked runs to the bedroom. It's a good idea to wear a condom before showering. This can help prevent water from getting inside. Water inside can cause discomfort or slipping.

- Use the right lube. Water does not replace lubricant because, although it is moist, it is not slick. To prevent condom breakage and to ensure that your lubricant doesn't rinse off as soon as water-based lube does, use silicone-based lubrication in the shower. To ensure that you can reapply as needed, keep your lubricant handy.

Hot tip: never lubricate with shampoo or soap! Not unless it sounds like fun to upset your delicate pH balance and have a vaginal infection.

Bonus tips

The following advice will help you keep it sexy, which is the whole objective of shower sex, even though it has nothing to do with safety.

- Clean your shower first. No one gets aroused by crusty soap scum, hair in the drain, or worse, moldy tiles.

- Get clean as foreplay. Don't omit foreplay at all because being wet does not automatically arouse someone. You could even want to soap each other up as part of your warm-up.

What better method to discover the subtleties of one another? Make sure to rinse off thoroughly. But first, before you do any balancing tricks, remember that soap is slippery—you read it right.

- Don’t be penetration-centric. Plunging in or out of the shower is not the end all be all of it. Furthermore, remember that water can be challenging to perform penetrating sex in the shower, so don't give up. Furthermore, a little erogenous bliss and oral sex go hand in hand in the shower.

- Consider waterproof sex toys. Adult bath toys come to mind. Today, there are many great waterproof sex toys available, including vibrators, dildos, butt plugs, anal beads, and cock rings.

Positions to try

After you've prepared your area and taken every safety measure, what specific strategy will you take to shower sex? Try these functional yet wet and wild positions to make the most of your showering experience!

- Upright doggy-style. One leans forward and bends their knees slightly, placing their palms flat against the shower wall. This makes it possible for the other to enter from behind with their fingers, a penis, or a toy. Additionally, they are in the ideal position to lust after your clit, perineum, or other mouthwatering areas.

- Captain Morgan. One person faces the other and raises their leg to rest it on a bench or the tub's edge. The second partner can then come in from the front holding a toy, a penis, or fingers.

Without a seat or ledge, one person may raise the other's leg better still if you have a shower handle to grab onto. This location should be reversed for the back entrance.

- Wet cowgirl/boy. To allow for penetration, one person sits on the shower/tub floor while the other sits on their lap facing them.

This maneuver is excellent because there is no chance of falling if you are concerned about slipping on the damp tile. Just be sure that your shower is spotless. Bonus: technique can also be used for anal, given the proper angle.

- Chairperson. Consider a cowgirl in reverse.

One person sits on a shower bench, tub edge, or floor. The other person sits on their lap, facing away, for vaginal or anal penetration. The person straddling can place their hands on their partner's knees for support, while the person sitting can reach around and play with their partner's genitals or nipples.

- Upright oral. While the other person kneels in front of them, one person remains standing. Ensure the person is comfortable. Place a nonslip pad under their knees. Position them under the shower so that water does not get in their mouth or nose.

Bottom line: When done correctly, having sex in the shower may be enjoyable, seductive, and incredibly refreshing. However, no one will condemn you for leaving the shower and landing on dry land if it's not working.
