A playful romp in the shower can be a great way to spice of your sex life. Not only do you have some fun outside of the bedroom but you and Hubby can get sparkly clean at the same time. Water also acts as the perfect lubricant and may make penetration easier. Clinical sexologist Dr Martha Tara Lee of Eros Coaching tells us five of the best moves for great shower sex.

1. Put on a show

If your man is reluctant to do shower sex, you can easily get him in the mood with this super-hot move.

“Ask your partner to sit somewhere in the bathroom. Apply shower gel on your shower loofah or handheld scrubber. Tell him he can watch but not touch you, before proceeding to touch yourself using the foamy scrubber,” Martha says.

Think of it as a lap dance routine, suggests Martha: “Be sure to have the water runs over your breasts as you slowly massage your body. Add sounds of pleasure or delight as you unleash your inner vixen. It’s then up to you whether you want to allow him to jump in and touch you.”

 

2. Doggie style

There are many surfaces of different heights you can work with in the bathroom.  These will aid you in positioning yourself for maximum pleasure.

Martha says, “Prop one foot up on the edge of the bath tub or toilet bowl. Bend forward with your palms against a wall for stability. Ask your partner to lift one leg a bit higher as he enters you. He can then hold your hips so he can penetrate more deeply.”

 

3. Invest in the right tools

The shower can be slippery! Avoid mishap by installing handles along the shower walls to help you get a good grip in various different sex positions. “For instance, a dual locking suction handle can give you something to hold on to in doggie position – no slipping!” says Martha.

Another handy tool you can use is a single locking suction foot rest, to support you when in your awkward angle. You can find bathroom accessories like these at The Golden Concepts. Martha encourages you to get creative: “With some practice, you can navigate your way into lots of different positions with these handles.”

 

4. Sex toys

It can get cramped in a small bathroom. If you cannot find a comfortable position, it is helpful to add a sex toy into the mix to speed up arousal. This can also enhance the experience and intensify your orgasms.

Martha: “There are lots of water-resistant, splash-proof and even safe-to-be submerged sex toys on the market.” Check out the extensive range of waterproof products at online store Cherry Affairs.

 

5. Be straightforward

Sometimes less is more. Martha reminds us that “sex in the shower doesn’t need to be acrobatic. The intimacy of the water enveloping both of you can feel sensuous and romantic at the same time.”

Simply face your partner so he can touch your breasts and butt while kissing you. You can wrap one of your legs around him as he enters you.

“There is no time like making time.” Martha says. Regardless of your preference for a particular time of day, “shower sex anytime of the day can help wake up your body, so why not give it a go?”
