Why you actually shouldn't have sex in the shower

If you like to move sexual activity from the bedroom to the bathroom: pay attention.

It can actually be quite dangerous to copulate under a showerhead. Besides having to twist into some uncomfortable positions just to be able to have a decent romp, you also have to be careful with shower gel or any other kind of liquid soap, it doesn't matter which. Because as soon as this stuff gets into your vagina during sex, you're in trouble. That's the perfect food for a yeast infection.

Moreover, it's a bit harder for a woman to really enjoy some action. Because it's the water that makes you dry down there, let's say, in that one spot that should be wet. The water from the shower causes your body fluid (sorry, not sexy, but true) to wash away, making it a bit trickier to enthusiastically let that little guy (if he's in the game) in, eh, you know. Not to mention how you might reach a climax as a sultry shower lady. Furthermore, it's quite difficult to have safe sex this way, because the chance that the protection tears during a quickie is definitely greater in the water.

And did you think the shower was bad? Then definitely don't lie in the bath to have fun. Or if you're on vacation: avoid a pool or the sea, no matter how attractive it sounds. But unfortunately, we can't make it prettier than it is. Water in lakes, seas, and rivers contains masses of bacteria, and they just go straight into your punani when you're making waves together.

In short, keep it nice and dry. Or start with some cuddling and messing around under that shower, but as soon as the moment is there for the real act, quickly head to your bed or couch. That's much nicer for your vayjay.
