Shower Sex Step-By-Step Guide
From setting up the scene to navigating the practical aspects, I’ll show you everything you need to know.

Step 2: Set The Scene
Step 3: Get Started
Step 4: Choose A Position
Have a look into more hot shower sex positions you'll leave with a bunch of new ideas you'll want to put into practice.
The Ballet Dancer: One of the traditional shower sex positions, in which both partners are standing facing each other. She is lifting one leg while he is supporting her balancing act. This position allows easy access and is a great position for couples with little to no height differences.
The Hook: This standing shower sex position is one of a kind, while he enters her from behind she can use the shower wall for support when bending one leg. I love the hook sex position since it is a great variation to transition into standing doggy style.
The Caveman: Do you dare try the caveman inside the shower? This isn't for everyone. To do the caveman inside the shower make sure you've done your strength training, the slippery ground adds an even higher level of difficulty to it. During the caveman he lifts her, grabbing her thighs while grinding or bouncing her up and down.
Wheelbarrow: For this one you might want to invest in a non slip shower mat, the wheelbarrow sex position requires you to lift your beautiful partner like a wheelbarrow, while she is pushing her hands on the ground. Done correctly the angle guarantees deep penetration.
Step 5: Be Playful & Explore
Step 6: Aftercare
After finishing, rinse off, dry with a towel, apply moisturizer, drink water, and spend some time cuddling.
Step 7: Cleanup
Clean up the space together after you’re done. Make sure all the soap is cleaned out of the tub, and everything is put back in its place.
A Woman's Perspective...
Shower Sex Do’s & Don’ts
Shower sex no doubt comes with specific challenges. To keep the experience enjoyable and safe, here are some do's and don'ts you should definitley keep in mind.
Do's
Don'ts
The reason behind these do's and don'ts is clear: safety! It's important, and it's easy to get caught up in the experience and forget it.
On that note, to add to the first point, soap is not made for contact with the delicate environment inside the vagina and can cause irritation, pain, or even infections.
Nothing is worse than an overzealous partner who, when in a hurry, puts his partner at risk.
Don't be that guy!
Overcoming Common Shower Sex Challenges
Shower sex can be exciting but comes with certain practical challenges, such as height differences, slippy floors, and uncomfortable water temperatures.
This is how to handle these issues so you can get back to having fun.
Challenge #1 - Dealing With Limited Space
Showers often don't offer much room. To cope, use positions where one person is standing up, like one partner leaning against the wall. This maximizes the use of available space.
If you're feeling constrained, remember that the proximity can actually make sex feel more personal and intense.
Challenge #2 - Managing Water Temperature
Set a comfortable level before starting, and adjust as needed. Just try to avoid knocking the handle around while you're busy with your partner.
Nothing kills the mood faster than unexpected freezing water hitting you or the opposite — burning hot water against your back.
If the water gets too hot or cold, just take a moment to readjust the temperature.
It’s a small interruption that ensures everyone stays comfortable.
Challenge #3 - Avoiding Dryness
Surprisingly, water can lead to dryness. Use a silicone-based lubricant to counteract this, as it stays on longer in wet conditions. If you need to reapply lubricant, keep it within reach.
Challenge #4 - Navigating Weight Differences
Differences in weight might make certain positions difficult. Using a sturdy stool, footrest, or even a shower seat can help balance and support both partners.
Challenge #5 - Overcoming Height Differences
If there's a significant height difference, a stool or footrest can help level things out.
Or you can try old-fashioned (yet proven) techniques, such as having the taller partner sit where the shorter one stands.
This makes it easier to find positions that work for both partners.
Challenge #6 - Transitioning From One Shower Sex Position to Another
Moving between positions in a slippery shower is a bit dangerous, but that's part of the fun. Still, you don't want accidental hospital visits to be on the agenda for the evening.
Take it slow; as one partner stands, let the other partner get into position so that both aren't moving around at the same time. Also, don't forget about handles or solid fixtures for support.
Challenge #7 - Not Having A Shower Available
No shower? A bathtub can be a good alternative. It usually has more space and flexibility. Using a bathtub might seem like a backup plan, but it can actually offer a more laid-back experience.
Andrew's Proven Expert Tips To Have Better Shower Sex
Shower sex is a chance to mix things up and enjoy a different kind of experience with your partner.
Whether you're in a bathtub, a walk-in shower, or a standing stall, there are ways to make sex more enjoyable and ten times hotter.
These are my expert tips — tried and tested in all possible ways.
I. Take Off All Pressure
Don't put too much pressure on yourself to perform or last long. Shower sex is great for getting in the mood and can be a playful start to sex.
If you're worried about slipping or finding the right position, remember that shower sex is more about the experience than perfection. It’s okay if things don’t go exactly as planned.
II. Use Waterproof Sex Toys & Props
Before jumping into the shower, make sure any sex toys you plan to use are indeed waterproof. It's a good idea to recharge them beforehand to avoid any mid-session power outs.
A few props like suction dildos or suction handcuffs could be a good choice, too. And don't forget lubricants to ensure everything moves smoothly.
You might wonder if using toys in the shower is safe. Yes, as long as they are meant for use in the water.
III. Make Her Squirt
The shower is probably the best place to experiment with making her squirt. The water running down will make cleanup a breeze, so you can focus fully on the experience without worrying about the mess.

IV. Shave Each Other
Shaving each other is a highly erotic activity. Not only this, but the act involves a bit of play of dominance and submission, making it a vulnerable yet exciting thing to try.
Grab a new, sharp blade to avoid nicks, and take it slow. This is meant to be sensual, not a race.
