There are a few things to keep in mind when showering with sex. First, use a quality lube.
Nothing kills a good mood like getting sprayed with soapy water or dropping into the tub while tangled in passion. Next, make sure you and your partner are both stable enough to do a position that requires some acrobatics.
1. Make sure the water isn’t too hot
Shower sex looks picture-perfect in movies and television shows, but getting intimate under a cascade of water isn’t as simple in real life. For starters, water isn’t a great lubricant and soap gets into the wrong places faster than you can say “yeast infection.” Plus, nothing kills the mood like slipping and getting hurt.
For this reason, it’s a good idea to test out your shower’s water temperature before you and your partner attempt any shower-related intimate activities. Once you know what your limits are, try a new position or use waterproof sex toys to take things to the next level.
One of the most popular shower sex positions is the ballet dancer sex pose, which allows both partners to get close to each other as they thrust against the wall. Just make sure your shower has a nonslip mat or you both wear bathing suits to avoid slipping.
If you’re comfortable with it, you can also try lifting one leg and resting it on a stool or tub edge while your partner thrusts. This is a great position for deep penetration and can be even more satisfying if you both use sex toys to make the most of it. Just remember that you and your partner should always be on the same page about any sexual activity and never agree to do anything against your will – This section comes from the portal’s editor Velvet Seductions.
2. Check out your partner’s clitoris
Like pool sex and sex on the beach, shower sex sounds hot in theory but often falls flat in practice. But with some careful planning, it’s totally possible to have a safe and orgasmic session in the bath.
“If you’re both able to sit in the shower, lean against the wall or on a bench if you have one, and use your hands for touch, then you can play with each other’s nipples, back of the neck, wrists, or clitoris,” says sex therapist and LELO sex educator Casey Tanner, LCPC. This is an excellent way to warm up before getting into deeper penetration.
Another good option for non-sitters is to have one partner stand in front of the shower, with their feet firmly on the floor and their hand on the wall or a towel for support, while the other person leans against the back of the bathroom wall. This is a great position for penis-in-vagina sex, Dr. Grover explains. The partner in the back can reach around to stimulate the clitoris of the partner in the front, and they can penetrate vaginally or anally if they want.
It’s also a good idea to swap between different positions and types of touch so that you and your partner can discover what feels most intense, satisfying, or exciting. You can even add sex toys for extra stimulation. Just remember that it’s important to use protection when you have sex in the shower. Condoms might slip under the water pressure, and the heat of the steam could cause them to break.
3. Don’t forget the back
The close quarters and steamy environment of the shower make it a great place to explore more than just your vaginal or anal clitoris. A lot of couples report that they find oral and genital play in the shower just as exciting as penetrative sex, so don’t forget about all the possibilities!
To start, try the face off sex position. Have your partner stand behind you, leaning back on the tub or shower bench (or even straddling it) and then lift one of their legs off the floor. This allows them to reach you from behind and penetrate you with a dildo or penis and can be a very intense experience! This is also a good place to add a bullet vibrator to stimulate the clitoris and take your shower sex to the next level.
If you’re looking for something a little more adventurous, try the Modified Standing Missionary position. Have your partner sit in the tub or on a shower bench with their legs comfortably extended and then straddle them! This allows them to penetrate you from behind and can be even more intense than the face off sex position. This is also a great place to try some boob play, fingering, and hair pulling to really spice things up. Just remember that the slick floors and a potential splash of water can make this move pretty risky so be careful!
4. Don’t forget your feet
Shower sex isn’t for the faint of heart—wet enamel and slippery tile can lead to serious injury. But if you’re willing to embrace the risk, it can be an intensely satisfying experience. Just make sure to follow these safety guidelines, and don’t forget to use a good lubricant!
For a shower version of the doggy position, have one partner stand with their back against the tub and legs comfortably spread. Then, have the penetrating partner grab onto their leg from behind and straddle them. This position is great for penetration, fingering, or using a vibrator.
Another great shower sex position is the cowgirl—for this, you’ll want to have plenty of space. The receiver should kneel down on the floor or fold up a towel between their legs, then have the giver straddle them from behind. This is a great position for penetration, boob play, or fingering.
It’s important to remember that the less stable you and your partner are, the less fun you’ll have. That’s why it’s always a good idea to use a suction device that can hold your weight while being waterproof, as well as a high-quality silicone or water-based lubricant. Also, don’t be afraid to ask your partner for stability checks if it feels unsafe for them. If they’re feeling uncomfortable or unsure, it’s a good sign that they’re not in the mood.
