Save water! Take a shower together! With this very earth-friendly slogan comes a new date on the calendar that someone on Twitter has invented to celebrate who knows what. Shower Sex Day? Sure, why not?
The truth is there’s an equal number of us out there who love Shower Sex as there are haters, so it’s important in life (crucial, we would say) to choose your partner well so you don’t get the surprise of being on the opposite side: Are you #TeamShower? Or #TeamNatural?
Shower sex can be fun, but the argument of saving water can’t really apply here. Getting it on in the shower means the shower will be running longer than during two consecutive showers. Like the idea anyways? Does it turn you on? Go ahead then, but don’t say it’s environmentally friendly. Greta Thunberg wouldn’t fall for it, and neither will we.
Another downside, the water gets in your eyes and the skin loses all its flavors and aromas, which is fine for germaphobes, but this limits the sensory nuances of the sexual act. Unless there’s a hygiene problem, no need to head to the shower. Another factor is the cold. Unless the temperature is soaring (and in January that’s not what it’s like in the northern hemisphere) sooner or later you’re gonna get cold.
But if you’re determined to ignore these inconveniences, we advise caution: shower slips are more common than you think, and no one on Twitter has yet created Sex-in-a-Cast Day (that we know of).
