Your own bathtub is not just the perfect place to relax. If you enjoy sex in the bath, we have a few tips on how to make wet pleasure even more fun for two. A bathtub is something special. It’s no wonder that many people consider it an important part of their dream home. The shower in the morning is the first choice for many when things have to be done quickly, but the bathtub is not to be despised for other beautiful things in this world either. We’re talking about unwinding, sipping champagne, reading a book, relaxing, wearing a face mask, but also sex.

On the one hand, there’s the option of doing it alone, with or without water-suitable sex toys. But sometimes it can be something more and a partner in the bath would be just the thing to have really good, wet sex. We have the most important tips for making love in the bathtub so that you don’t completely drown and don’t twist anything in the bathtub.

You should pay attention to this during sex in the bathtub. The best thing about sex in the bathtub is that everything is nice and wet. It simply flows better and the physical contact becomes an absolute magic program. It doesn’t get any better than that. But did you know that it has to be the right temperature for men and how much water is just right for sex in the bath so as not to flood the whole bathroom? Then you’ve come to the right place. Let’s go!

Many people are sure to argue about what exactly the perfect temperature in the bathtub is. However, when having sex in the bath, you should remember that your pleasure is more important than one degree more or less in the bath. This is because the temperature of the water should be around 30 to 32 degrees for a good erection. Because if the water is too hot, he won’t move much.

When it comes to the amount of water, you should also bear in mind that there are two of you in the bath. Keyword: water displacement. What’s more, you don’t want to lie in the water like two oysters, you want to move around. So bear in mind that the waves in the bath can be a little higher at times. Your bath is quickly flooded and the neighbor from downstairs is standing in front of the door. Nobody needs that. So fill with less water. The environment and your electricity/water bill will thank you directly.

By the way: You also need to use contraception when having sex in the bath. The myth still persists that you can’t get pregnant from sperm in bath water because sperm die quickly in warm water. However, this is only true with boiling water. Therefore: If you do more than petting, you should also use contraception. You should also bear in mind that it is not 100% safe, e.g. if she touches herself vaginally and has sperm on her fingers.

What is the best form of contraception for bathtub sex?
Unfortunately, the ever-popular condom has a few pitfalls when having sex in the bath. If you use bath additives, you have to be aware that some additives can attack the latex of the condom. In addition, contraception with rubber in the bath is not absolutely safe, as it can slip off quickly or water can get under the rubber. It is therefore better to use other contraceptive methods, such as the pill, IUD etc. It is often cramped in a bathtub. This severely restricts the choice of sexual positions. Find out which ones are best below. But first things first: in the heat of the moment, don’t forget that in the missionary position, for example, it can happen that the person lying on the bottom swallows water. You can counteract this by using less water in the bath.

These are the absolute advantages of bathtub sex
Whether solo sex or as a couple: bathtub sex has a few decisive advantages over sex in bed or on dry land. Firstly, every touch and stimulation is extremely sexy and hot thanks to a whole tub of natural ’lube’, so to speak. However, you should be aware that what makes your body so slippery does not also apply to your genitals. This is because the water washes away the lubricating secretions produced by your body. Lubricants are therefore also important when having sex in the bath. However, make sure that the already slippery pleasure doesn’t become even more slippery and therefore dangerous for you. 

Perfect for sex in the bath: Massages of any kind. Be it a gentle neck massage or a sexy perineum massage, fingering or wanking. It all goes perfectly with water and will make you melt away.

Jerking off or cunnilingus (cunt licking) is even more fun in the water. Simply because for many more cautious people the fear that they might not be clean is eliminated and the question of whether or not he cums in the cunt can be reconsidered. Thanks to the amount of water, everything is much easier. So try out what you like.

Tip: Waterproof sex toys are also great. Both solo sex toys, such as vibrators or dildos, and couples’ toys that can go in the water. Let yourself be inspired.

Not to be sneezed at either: Sex in the water is very romantic and adds variety to your sex life. Especially if you redecorate your bathroom a little and conjure up a nice atmosphere with light and candles, bath foam, bubbly and music. Feel free to add a bit of romance and love to the dull tiled room.

Another advantage: when it gets hotter towards the end of your number, the increasingly colder water in the tub cools you down pleasantly. This is certainly a blessing in summer.

The best sex positions for sex in the bath
So that there are no knots and you can also move in a relaxed manner, there are a few sex positions that also fit into smaller bathtubs and leave you room for lots of fun. Of course, you’ll be a little cramped in a bath because not everyone has a whirlpool or a huge bathtub. So for all those who have the solo model of a bath in the bathroom: Don’t despair. There are solutions - in the form of the right sex positions.

There are a number of positions that are suitable for sex in the bath, for example the riding position or the classic missionary position. Here you just have to make sure that both of you (including the person lying on the bottom) can keep your heads above water and still let yourselves go.

No matter what you do during sex: do it with love and passion and always in mutual agreement about how far you go and what is pleasant and beautiful for both partners. With this in mind: Have fun making love!
