How to Enjoy Pleasure in the Water

Have you ever tried to have sex in the shower? The tub? The pool? On the beach? It’s rarely as sexy as they make it look in the movies, unfortunately. There’s a lot that can go wrong, from tight, slippery spaces in the shower and sand on beaches. There are some ways you can work against this if you’re really set on getting it on in some sort of wet spot, but it might take a little foresight to do it right.

Exploration In Your Bathroom

While reminiscing about college days and dorm bathroom signs, it’s clear that your private bathroom offers a better setting for intimate moments. Shower sex can be awkward with cramped and slippery conditions, and bathtubs can be too small for two. Here are some tips for enjoying pleasure in the water:

• Use silicone-based lube, which is waterproof. Apply it before entering the shower or tub to avoid making things too slippery.
• Invest in positioning accessories and anti-slip aids like suction handles, footrests, and non-slip mats.
• Opt for truly waterproof toys. High-end rechargeable vibrators with submersible features, such as those from Lelo, Fun Factory, We Vibe, and Je Joue, are ideal. If unsure, either ask or avoid using it in the shower.
• Plan your adventure. Decide if you’ll start in the shower or elsewhere. Set up everything you need beforehand to avoid interruptions.

Adventure Yourself Outside

Outdoor water adventures can be thrilling but come with additional challenges. Here are some tips for enjoying intimate moments in pools, oceans, or rivers:

• Pack a ‘go bag’ with essentials: sunscreen, towels, clothing, shoes, a blanket, and a beach umbrella. Include items for your intimate moments like lube, condoms, and toys.
• Respect nature. Carry a disposal bag for trash and leave no trace of your adventure.
• Seek private or remote locations. Be aware of local rules and regulations to avoid legal trouble.
• Preparation is key. Know the laws and regulations of your chosen location and be ready for unexpected encounters.

Conclusion: sex in the water can be fun, but it can also go wrong in a lot of ways. Preparation can help you avoid unpleasant situations so you’re more likely to have a great time.
