Shower sex is not as sexy and fun as porn would have you believe. You have to worry about slipping, soap getting in your eyes, and if the shower stall is too small for both of you. 

And on top of all of that, you have to think about water slipping into crevices you don’t want it to. It’s really tricky, but when you get it down, sex in the shower can be hot as hell.

Having sex in the shower is definitely sexy. But it’s only fun when you keep a few things in mind and avoid the things that can make having sex in the shower uncomfortable.

How to have sex in the shower

Having sex in the shower is a lot more than just a new way to have sex. Shower sex is intimate and can help both of you feel closer and bond better. It creates an emotional connection between you and your partner.

When you’re in the shower with your partner, you don’t always have to think of sex. Both of you can lather each other up with a loofah and spend a while talking and relaxing after a long day at work.

Now and then, both of you may not be keen to have sex after a tiring day. At times like these, getting under the shower can be the best thing to rejuvenate yourselves and feel grateful for having each other.

1. Lather up

Don’t think of sex just yet. Get under the hot shower with your lover and lather each other up with soap, shampoo, or even a slippery conditioner up to the neck. Just hug each other and relax in each other’s arms as both of you use a loofah on each other’s backs.

The woman can also sit on the guy’s lap for a while and wrap her arms around him if there’s enough space. Both of you will feel good in each other’s arms, and at the same time, the slippery bodies will start to make everything feel sexier.

2. Give each other an oral

Even if you’re not too comfortable with giving an oral to your partner at the end of a hard day, don’t worry about it when both of you are in the shower. 

Running water always makes things feel moist, supple, and fresh. And the best part, it won’t be a one-sided pleasurable activity anymore! [Read: Tips to make him go down on you without a push]

Since you’re both clean and fresh in the shower, you’d better take advantage of it and do all the dirty things you’ve been wanting to do to each other. Pleasure each other orally. Either one of you can drop to your knees and please the other. 

You can also take turns returning the favor. The feeling of the warm shower and the water trickling down your privates, added to your lover’s oral prowess, can be enough to make you gush. [Read: How to master the art of the perfect blowjob]

3. Clean each other up

Lather up and run your hands over each other, paying more attention to those special regions. Before long, all the scrubbing and fingering will arouse both of you. Additionally, you could also use a hand shower or stand under running water and stimulate each other sexually. [Read: How to eat ass – The rimming checklist to eating booty like a boss]

4. Share enough shower time

Don’t hog the shower just because the water feels so warm and relaxing. Stand under the showerhead and make sure both of you get enough time under running water.

Get this wrong, and one person will end up feeling more cold and uncomfortable than the other.

5. Foreplay in the shower

Watch yourselves in front of the mirror while fondling each other, with or without lather. Watching yourselves naked will always turn both of you on.

It’s like watching a sexy couple make out in front of you and making out in front of another sexy couple at the same time. 

Who wouldn’t get turned on by that? Kiss each other under the shower as the water runs along your faces. The kisses will be wet, passionate, and sexy. [Read: Top 17 sexual fantasies for men]

6. Mutual masturbation

You can also masturbate with each other to get things going. This is great for soaping each other up, as well as prepping your places for penetration early on—AKA foreplay. 

The shower is the best place for mutual masturbation because the suds and the water make it all the more sensual. Invest in a detachable showerhead and some lube so you can caress each other with your hands and up the sensual pleasure a few notches. [Read: 15 sexy, slutty moves to give the best hand job ever!]

7. Use a towel

Spread a towel on the floor. When you’re making out in the shower, you’d want to feel comfortable and avoid slipping.

And even if both of you get on your knees and cuddle under the shower or have sex, a wet towel can give your knees and butt the cushioning it needs to feel comfortable. This way, you won’t have to deal with the cold floor too.

8. Hold on to something

Always make sure you’ve got a firm footing. It’s very easy to slip on a watery surface, especially when your mind’s occupied with sex. Don’t rest your foot on anything you think may not take your weight. 

In fact, it would be best to avoid resting your foot or body against anything that’s not as safe as a wall or the ground. And always remember to keep any slippery objects like soap bars away from your feet. It’s better to be safe than twisted and sorry.

9. Don’t change positions too fast

Having sex in the shower is meant to be exciting, not comfy. Just like a quickie, it’s something that’ll give you a sexual high but not the cozy warmth of your bed. Enjoy the sexual high, but avoid constantly changing positions. 

Stick with one unless one of you gets a cramp or feels uncomfortable. Don’t fidget around or move about a lot. Pick a position and spend a few minutes at it in the shower. You’ll enjoy having sex in the shower a lot more this way. Try too many things, and you’ll kill the mood. [Read: The complete guide to having sex on your period]

10. Spontaneity is key

Nothing can turn your partner on more than the sight of you suddenly showing up, in all your naked glory, while he is soaping up in the shower. Before he can turn around, stand behind him and press your boobs against his back. 

Reach around to get the soap or sponge from his hands and gently stroke him all over his chest, stomach, and upper thighs until you reach his package. Do this right, and he’ll be thinking of you each time he washes.

11. Put on a shower show

Getting it on in bed or in other parts of the bedroom often doesn’t leave you with much time to enjoy each other’s nakedness. [Read: Sexy strip tease 101 – How to strip for your man like a pro]

This time, use the art of “erotic bathing” *if there is such a thing* to flaunt to your guy how hot your body really is. First, make him sit from across the bathroom as you get into the shower. Then lather up your bath sponge with a sexy scented shower gel. 

Give him a show as you lather yourself up and let the foam from the soap cover different parts of your body as you let the water run down his favorite spots. Make sure to arch your back and tease him. It won’t be long until he joins you, hard with anticipation. 

12. Move through mountains

The wet and soapy shower environment can encourage you both to try things you may not have tried on dry land. Take, for example, breast play: you may try moving his member between your breasts to turn the heat up further. Just get your breasts all soapy and do the same to his manhood.

Then, kneel in front of him or sit on the edge of the tub *just make sure you have enough support and a foothold*. Then use the heels of your hands to push your breasts together, and make a bridge with your fingers as he moves his member inside. To make it even more slip-slide sexy, add some silicon-based lube.

13. Invest in props

Aside from lubes and a plethora of shower implements, invest in some sex toys, accessories, and oils to make shower sex as pleasurable as you can. Get some scented candles and pair them with a bath or massage oil. 

You can enjoy a warm, aromatic bath together to start things off and relax your minds and bodies for the forthcoming hanky panky. You can also add some rose petals to make it romantic, or even have some music going while you soak.

Other props that you can use in the shower include lubes, vibrators, dildos, paddles, and cuffs *if you’re into roughing it up*. And don’t forget about footstools and handlebars for safety.

Safe shower sex. Those are the three words to keep in mind while in the bathroom with your honey. If you’re not careful, a lot of things can go wrong.

The best positions for shower sex

There are no best sex positions in the shower. What works for one may not work for another, depending on your own flexibility and the space in the bathroom. [Read: Sexual positions to impress your man – The best moves to rock his world]

1. Leg lift

This is like a standing-up version of missionary, where you face each other in the shower. You lean back against the wall while he holds you in the crook of his elbow. 

Penetration can be fiddly, so he has to bend at the knee to gain access. You can choose to lean on the side of the bath with the showerhead so you can enjoy the sensual feeling of the water falling on your bodies.

2. Standing doggy in the tub

In this position, you should be bending over and holding onto the rim of the tub. Bend your knees a little to keep your balance as he moves inside you. Having the water on your back and trickling down his jewels can give you both added pleasurable sensations. [Read: 9 ways to make doggy style your favorite sex position]

3. Standing against the wall

This is another doggy-like position. Stand facing the wall, with your arms raised and pressed against it. Arch your lower back and thrust your butt out to receive him.

4. Take it to the edge

You can also have your partner sit on the edge of the tub as you present your back to him. Then, holding onto him, lower yourself gently with your hands on his knees for balance. You can control the tempo and depth as you move up and down his length. [Read: 50 sexy kinky ideas to try in bed]

5. Mirror, mirror

Another hot move is to have yourself lean on the sink in front of the mirror and allow him to enter you from behind. Arch your back to give him a full view of your breasts as they move with his thrusts. If you both like it rough, you can have him hold onto your hair as he watches the two of you in the mirror.

Now that you’ve steamed things up in the shower, you can get on with the dirty deed. However, since shower sex can be tricky, you have to pick the position that is comfortable and pleasurable for both of you.
