Why Everyone Loves Shower Sex
Shower sex is an invigorating and intimate experience that many people enjoy because the feeling of the warm water can be soothing, calming, or stimulating. When your bodies are pressed together, the slick surface of tiles and bathtubs delivers a unique feeling.
It can also be a great way to explore different positions, since you have more freedom in a wet environment.
Plus, it’s easy to clean up afterward!
Pros:
- Improved sexual experiences
- Closeness with your partner
- Easy to clean!
- Privacy — no chance the kids will come barging in!
- Unique sensations
Cons:
- Small risk of injury — read safety tips below.
- Water can be annoying when it slashes on your face or is too hot or cold.
- Special challenges when trying to maintain balance in the shower
How to Have Safe Shower Sex
Shower sex can be thrilling — Think of the rush of taking your partner while standing under warm, flowing water! The only thing to do next is to take your adventures outdoors and make love under a real waterfall. But, if you’re in a pinch or just in short supply of actual waterfalls in your area, try this instead.
Put down a non-slip mat before sex. This makes it easier for both partners to move around without worrying about slipping or falling. As exhilarating as shower sex can be, you don’t have to end up in the hospital afterward.
Rinse off soap and hair products from the shower floor. Living with a female partner comes with perks. Still, one downside is the copious amount of hair products, such as expensive shampoos and conditioners, that sometimes coat the floor or bathtub with odd slippery substances after use. These products, especially conditioners, feel gross under your feet and can create a slimy and unstable surface. To avoid slipping and sliding, take a handheld shower head or a sponge to remove the excess product.
If you’re using condoms with your partner, keep a box near the shower or bathtub to avoid running out of the room to retrieve them from the bedroom.
The same thing applies to lube! Despite water being, well — water! It does not make a good lubricant.
For anal penetration, keep a bottle of longer-lasting silicone lube near the bathtub or shower. Silicone lube does not play nicely with silicone sex toys, so keep that in mind. The best all-around lube is water-based, as it’s condom safe and can be used with all sex toys.
Allow one person to get comfortable in the shower first. Let’s not forget about hygiene; going in one at a time allows both partners time to clean before sex.
The shower head should be aimed carefully so that the shortest person, generally the female, does not have to worry about a high-pressured shower head firing directly into her eyes during sex.
Lastly, if you’re transitioning from taking a real shower to shower sex, don’t forget to remove soap from your body, particularly your penis, completely.
Soaps are great for removing dirt and grime from your skin. However, you don’t want to introduce those potentially harmful chemicals to the vagina’s delicate environment. Vaginas clean themselves, and regular body wash can alter the PH balance, burn and sting, or even cause an infection.
Do’s
- Use a non-slip mat in the shower to avoid slipping and falling.
- Rinse soap and hair products off the shower floor for a safer surface.
- Allow one partner to get comfortable in the shower before transitioning into sex.
Don’ts
- Don't put soap inside your partner's vagina.
- Don't use silicone lube with silicone sex toys.
- Don't use water as lube!
- Don't aim the shower head directly at the shortest person's face.
- Don't try to use shelves, bars, or rails that are not meant to support one or two people's weight.
- Don't forget to prepare! Bring everything you need into the bathroom before sex, including towels, lube, condoms, and sex toys.
Don’t forget to keep the shower sex fun and safe! Now that you know the basics of safe shower sex, let’s get to the fun part: 16 steamy shower sex positions to try tonight!
Our Favorite Steamy Shower Sex Positions
We have sixteen of the best shower sex positions (and the hottest!) for you to try out tonight!
Standing Oral
To get into this position, the male partner stands in the shower while the female partner kneels.
The female partner can then use her hands and mouth to pleasure her partner. This position allows for maximum pleasure for the male partner. For added pleasure, the female partner can use her hands to stimulate her clitoris while giving her man oral sex.
The Chair
This position is great for those who want to take a break from standing up in the shower. The male partner sits on a chair or stool while the female partner straddles him. This position allows for deep anal or vaginal penetration and can be quite stimulating for both partners.
Standing Doggy Style
This position is perfect for couples who don’t care too much about eye contact while having sex in the shower.
The receiving partner should stand with her back to her partner to get into this position. The penetrating partner stands behind her, and then he enters from behind.
Tip: Use the wall as a steady surface to hold on to during sex.
Standard Doggy Style
To get into this position, the female partner should kneel in the shower while the male partner stands behind her.
The male partner enters from behind, allowing deep penetration and intense pleasure. This position does not allow for eye contact during sex but can be incredibly intimate and satisfying.
Ensure the water is aimed correctly before getting in position. Very few women want to have the shower head blasting water at their face or back during sex.
Ideally, the male partner should have the water running over his shoulders while the female partner remains mostly dry.
Standing Missionary
This position is perfect for couples who want to maintain eye contact while having sex in the shower, but may not be suitable for couples with large differences in height.
To get into this position, the female partner should stand against the shower wall while the male partner stands in front of her. The male partner then enters from the front, allowing for prolonged body and eye contact.
Reverse Cowgirl
To get into this position, the female partner should straddle the male partner while facing away from him. This position allows for deep penetration and can be quite stimulating for both partners. The female partner can also use her hands to stimulate her clitoris while riding her man. Don’t forget to aim the shower head away from the female partner.
Shower Head Doggy
Shower Head Doggy is a great position for couples who want to add an extra element of pleasure to their shower sex.
To get into this position, the female partner should bend down in the shower while the male partner stands behind her. The male partner then enters from behind. While bent downward, the female partner should aim the removable shower head directly at her clit.
It might help to use the bathtub’s edge to lift one leg so that the shower head is more directly aimed at the clitoris.
Lap Dance
To get into this position, the male partner should sit on the edge of the bathtub or shower seat while the female partner stands in front of him.
The female partner then sits down on her man’s lap and leans back slightly, allowing deep penetration and intense pleasure.
After that point, the male partner can use his hands and fingers to stimulate the female partner’s clitoris and nipples.
This position also allows for prolonged body contact, making it a great option for couples who want to maintain intimacy during shower sex.
Lap Dance Oral
To get into this position, the male partner should sit on the edge of the bathtub or shower seat while the female partner stands in front of him.
The female partner then kneels in front of her man’s lap and begins giving him oral sex. This position allows the female partner to control the depth and intensity of the oral sex, making it a great option for female partners who enjoy being in control during a blowjob.
The male partner can also use his hands to stimulate the female partner’s nipples while she is giving him oral sex or grab and gently pull her hair.
Trade places, and make the female partner the receiver!
Standing 69
This position is perfect for couples who want to explore oral sex in the shower with an additional challenge! To get into this position, both partners should stand in the shower. The male partner should lift his partner and start giving her oral sex while she returns the favor.
This position allows both partners to receive pleasure simultaneously, making it a great option for couples who want to explore mutual pleasure.
However, this position is challenging, and a non-slip mat and surface is a must! Any falls can be dangerous, so make sure to take extra precautions and do not attempt if you have never tried or successfully did standing 69 before with your partner.
Lotus
Lotus is a great position for couples who want to explore deeper penetration during shower sex. The male and female partners should sit on the shower floor to get into this position.
The female partner then wraps her legs around her man’s waist, sits in his lap, and leans back slightly, allowing deep penetration and intense pleasure. This position also allows for prolonged body contact, making it a great option for couples who want to maintain intimacy during shower sex.
Screwdriver
To get into this position, the male partner should stand in the shower while the female partner kneels. The female partner then bends over and raises her ass high into the air.
The male partner then kneels and places one leg over her side. This position allows for deep penetration while allowing the male partner to use his hands to stimulate the female partner’s clitoris and nipples. The female partner can also reach back and grab her man’s thigh to control penetration depth.
Ballet Dancer
To get into this position, the male partner should stand in the shower while the female partner stands behind him with her back against his chest. The female partner then wraps her arms around her man’s neck, lifts one leg up, and wraps it around her man’s waist or thigh, depending on height, allowing for deep penetration.
This position allows both partners to maintain body contact and allows the male partner the freedom to use his hands to play with his lady’s nipples, hair, or any other body part.
Stand and Deliver
One classic but always popular shower sex move is the Stand and Deliver. This position requires both partners to stand upright, facing each other as the female partner wraps her legs around the male partner’s buttocks. Holding onto each other’s shoulders or waist for support can quickly become an explosive climax for both partners — all within the privacy of a steaming hot shower!
Oasis
This position is perfect for couples who want to maximize body contact! To get into this position, both partners should sit facing each other on the shower floor.
The female partner should sit in her man’s lap, lean slightly backward to angle her pelvis, and move up and down or grind against him. The male partner should wrap his arms around his partner to provide stability and intimacy during sex.
The Sink
Take a break from the water and have sex on top of the bathroom countertop or sink! To get into this position, the female partner should sit on the edge of the sink while the male partner stands in front of her.
The female partner can then wrap her legs around her man’s waist and lean against the mirror or wall behind her. This position allows for both partners to maintain eye contact! When you’re done, quickly rinse off in the shower again, grab a towel, and go to the bedroom.
Want to Be Adventurous? Try Using Sex Toys in the Shower!
Using waterproof sex toys in the shower can be incredibly stimulating and pleasurable for both partners. Not only do they provide an extra layer of stimulation, but they can also help to make the experience less dull.
Shower Heads
Shower heads are not technically sex toys but can stimulate your or your partner’s bodies during sex.
Use the water to stimulate your partner’s body by holding the shower head against her clitoris during sex. Just make sure you check the water temperature beforehand!
Waterproof Wands
These wands can be used to stimulate both partners, and they come in a variety of shapes and sizes.
Our favorite is the Hitachi wand! Its long handle makes it easy to maneuver in the shower and has multiple vibration settings to maximize pleasure for your partner!
Double-check the instructional manual before bringing it into the shower with you, as some wands are not waterproof or merely water-resistant. Meaning it’s fine to get a splash on it, but it can’t be submerged in water.
Suction Cup Dildos
Suction cup dildos are a great way to add extra spice to your shower sex session. These dildos come with a suction cup base that can be attached to any flat surface, such as the wall or floor of the shower.
This allows for hands-free penetration and makes it easier for both partners to move around. Pro-tip: While your partner pleasures herself on her toy, stand in front of her for the best oral sex of your life.
Suction Handcuffs
Suction handcuffs can be attached to any smooth surface, such as the wall or floor of the shower, and can be used to hold your partner in place while you penetrate her — adding a hint of kink to your shower activities!
