How to make love in a bathtub?

The narrowness of the bathtubthe taps which act as obstacles, the water which splashes everywhere… so many obstacles which it would be better to take into account so that the alchemy operates without hindrance.

“To make the atmosphere optimal and erotic, you can, for example, add bath salts (like zizi bath bombs), light candles to dim the room or even play relaxing music to complete the sweetness of the moment” illustrates Emmanuel Faure, sex therapist.

Why not also, invite some sex toys ? Among the great classics, the bath duck or the plug soap. “And if you don’t have one at hand, the shower head will do the trick, thus becoming the true ally of your pleasures; especially if it offers different jet options” explains the specialist in sexology, Emmanuel Faure.

Finally, do not neglect la communication : “It is essential in any sexual relationship. Talk to your partner regarding your desires, your limits and what turns you on. And stay attentive to your partner’s signals to ensure that everything goes well and that the practice remains ok “continues the therapist.

If you opt for a bubble bath to make love, take into account that the higher temperature can be a source of bacteria. To avoid problems, stay there only a few minutes and take care to rinse well following your courtship.

Sexual practice: the advantage of water

Like sex in the swimming pool or in the sea, making love in a bathtub offers some people: special state of well-being. “The warmth offered by the hot water of a bathtub promotes relaxation and that famous letting go” continues Emmanuel Faure, sex therapist, also a couples specialist. However, be sure to set the water at a temperature that remains comfortable for both partners.

Note also that everything seems lighter and more fluid in the water, even if the contact between the skins is sometimes drier and jerkier. But isn’t the idea of ​​making love in an unusual place like the bathtub more exciting than the act itself? Let’s admit that the fog on the windows and the water vapor give off something captivating…

What positions to make love in a bathtub?

We will avoid complicated positions which might lead to injuries in favor of more accessible positions such as the spoon position or the bee union position (lying on your partner, himself lying in the bathtub, your back once morest his chest). Namely that more than wanting to repeat a particular position, it is intuition that must take precedence.

Sex in water, how to avoid the suction effect?

Note that it sometimes happens, because of a draft of air, that the bodies become stuck in each other. To avoid this little accident, which is more annoying than serious, immerse yourself completely in water.

Making love in a bathtub: contraindications and precautions

Be careful : the surface of the bathtub can be slippery, be sure to maintain a good grip during movements so as not to slip while having fun. “A non-slip mat can be useful, both inside the bath and at the exit (floor)” advises Emmanuel Faure, sex therapist.

To protect yourself : take care to protect yourself from STI risks (sexually transmitted infections) and/or unwanted pregnancy, especially if your relationship is “non-exclusive”. For logistical reasons, put the condom on out of the water and be careful that it does not tear once submerged. The water that enters the condom risks limiting adhesion to the penis. Also, remove the condom outside of the water to avoid any loss of fluid and contamination.

Can you have sex in a bathtub when you have your period?

While it is entirely possible to make love during your period, the desire to take the plunge will depend on each individual and the relationship with their partner. And as sexologist Marie-Line Urbain reminds us in an article on the subject: “You don’t have to force yourself, whether the man or the woman or both. For some, it can really be experienced as dirty or embarrassing and then there is no point in trying to convince, because it will be experienced badly.” And to avoid all risks of STI transmission, it would be better to avoid indulging in this practice, in the case of so-called “non-exclusive” relationships.

Be discreet : for the record, “sexual exhibitionism imposed in view of others in a place accessible to the public eye is punishable by one year of imprisonment and a fine of 15,000 euros” recalls the Légifrance government website (source 1).

Finally, remember that intimacy is a matter of mutual consent and respect for each person’s limits. “If one of the partners is not comfortable with the idea of ​​making love in an aquatic environment, or here in the bathtub, it is important to respect this decision” indicates Emmanuel Faure, sex therapist. The fact of not controlling their environment, some people can in fact be bothered by this aquatic environment and therefore struggle to enjoy it. For those who feel more comfortable on dry land to make love, rest assured, other equally exciting places abound: nature (beach, mountain…), the elevator, public toilets, the cinema without forgetting all the daily furniture of the house ( table, chair, etc.) or even hidden corners at work.

“The key is to have fun, feel safe and enjoy the experience” concludes Emmanuel Faure, sex therapist.
