When it comes to the realm of expectation versus reality, shower sex has a way of ranking pretty high up there. The slip hazards, the awkward shuffling around, getting soap in places it shouldn’t be…and let’s face it—we all know there’s really only room for one underneath that glorious stream of hot water.

Needless to say, it’s a lot harder than it looks. But the truth is steamy shower sex can live up to the fantasized hype. With the help of a little strategy, practice, and handy hacks to keep in mind, you and your partner both can make all of your wet and wildest dreams come true.

Bath-Time Basics

Everyone loves a deliciously soft bed, but mixing up the scenery is a great way to keep the throes of romance alive. Here enters the shower—a super sexy option for getting it on outside of the bedroom. It’s the perfect chance to exercise your spontaneity and squeeze in a good impromptu romp before the day’s hustle and bustle even begins. But with it also comes a list of practicalities you can’t ignore.

Keeping your balance is first and foremost the biggest feat, since precarious positioning and wet porcelain don’t always mix well. Finding things to hold onto like a towel rack or shower door can help keep solid footing, along with a retro non-slip shower mat. Once you have that down, also remembering to simply relax is another crucial point, since performance anxiety of whether you’re “doing it right” (or about to crack your head open on the side of the tub) sure can ruin an orgasm.

Shower-friendly Positions

If you’re used to doing the deed in bed, having sex while standing up can feel like unknown territory. But the good news is there are plenty of variations to choose from, depending on whatever makes you feel the most comfortable.

Propping one foot on the bathtub’s edge can help stabilize yourself while setting up a good position for penetration from the front. With this stance, you don’t feel the pressure of needing pretzel-like flexibility and can help control the thrusting power—all while being able to maintain that ever-important, irresistible eye contact, too.

If you want particularly steady footing, standing doggie style is another solid shower-time pick. With one person using the wall to stabilize while the other holds onto their waist and enters from behind, you get a super-hot recipe for soaking success that feels comfortable, plus provides quite the arousing view.

And for the lucky ducks out there who happen to have a hefty ledge or full-on bench, opting for a woman on top or lotus position can bring shower sex to a whole next level as well. Considering you have the sensation-filled splashes of hot water on your naked bodies in a naturally relaxing yet erotically confined space, it’s easy to see how the senses become enhanced in virtually every way.

The other notable thing about shower sex is that it doesn’t even have to be about penetration in the first place. You can tap into just as much sexiness in savoring all the alluring appetizers, like mutual masturbation, oral, sensual massage and, for the ladies, shower head fun. Besides, you can always hop into bed and get to actual sex once the shower is over.

Toys & Lube

Even though we don’t typically think about mixing our electronics with the bathtub, the slew of waterproof sex toys on the market these days allow you make toys a part of your shower play. Regardless if you’re more of a rabbit, clitoral or even mesh sponge kind of gal, the tried and true vibrator is always a great place to start; but if you’re up for the joint fun of a vibrating couple’s ring, backdoor exploration with anal beads, or amped up sensation of stroking a la sleeves, they can each add just as much excitement to the unique play space as well.

And although you’re already in a wet environment, never ever forget that lube is still your best friend! Although it sounds counterintuitive, water alone doesn’t work well as a lubricant, so you need all the extra help you can get to ensure smooth, pleasurable action chock full of slips and slides.

So when considering all the ways to make the most of your next shower romp, keep these tips and tricks in mind to ensure a safe and sexy experience.

It’s hard to imagine describing sex as “too hot”, unless you mean it literally.

With the scorching summer alive and well that means the heat is unfortunately here to stay, but don’t let that stop you from ringing in the year’s most sultry season. As temperatures rise, so do our desires; and with the annual spirit of adventure that sets in, so do the endless ways of spicing things up while keeping cool just the same.

Temperature Play

When looking for ways to beat the heat, consider the straightforward approach of temperature play. By incorporating things like ice cubes or cooling lubricant into your ordinary sexcapades, you can provoke all kinds of sensual reactions through the skin’s millions of neuroreceptors. Our bodies are used to the warmth of human touch, so a rush of sensation coupled with the chill of these objects can result in a newfound night of intimacy with an exciting edge. And if you’re really willing to kick things up a notch, try icing down a glass dildo or butt plug for an even more pleasure-packed effect.

Shower Sex

Not too hot, not too cold, but when the temp is just right, shower sex can be a great solution to stickiness and sweat. Although it can be tricky to master, a wet hot shower with your partner (and some slippery lube) can be one of the sexiest sights to see. Nice and slicked down, exchanging steamy kisses from beginning to end—you’ll feel refreshed and recharged without ever once feeling the discomfort of a sweltering summer.

Lingerie

When it comes to lingerie, we all have that special piece (or ten) we’ve been dying to show off. So what better way to do so than when it’s too hot to wear clothing anyway! On days spent close to home this summer, capitalize on the blistering temps by swapping out the baggy loungewear for that super hot getup that’s been collecting dust in your closet for far too long. Of course some pieces are fine to be worn under clothes, but others are just too gorgeous to keep contained, so surprise your partner with a seductive look that will have them (and you) vouching for minimal clothing year-round.

Low-Contact Positions

Getting a little sweaty can definitely be a turn on, but not when your bodies turn into full on slip-n-slides. Opting for positions that minimize bodily contact can be logical lifesavers that still capture the intimacy of sex without the warmth of something like missionary. Other choices like cowgirl, doggy style, a penetrative spooning, or plain old-fashioned oral can offer more comfortable solutions that of course are just as enjoyable…if not more.

Mutual Masturbation

Or you can avoid full-body contact all together through the ever-alluring act of mutual masturbation. Despite the lack of physicality, it’s a great way to guarantee you’re touched exactly how you like to be touched, plus it provides each person a first-hand guide to how the other likes it done. And not to mention, some super sexy visuals, too.

Get Creative Around The House

The first rule of spicing things up means getting out of your regular routine, so for some that may mean the bedroom itself. Once the summertime heat rolls around, we all know there’s no turning back. So let it be the perfect excuse to trade in the hot sheets for more exotic locations around the house. Getting down to business in chairs, up against a table or even right on top of a nice, cool countertop can provide some much-needed relief from the heat that often accompanies your bedroom backdrop. And if your house happens to have a basement (or downstairs), you may have really hit the jackpot! Since we know heat rises, it’s always so much cooler down below.

So as the sun beats down and the heat turns up, at least we can dive into this summer season knowing sensual sacrifices are the last things that have to be made.
