How to Have Sex in Water
Underwater sex presents many technical challenges, but people still fantasize about it. Blame movies like Romeo + Juliet and Wild Things . If you intend to fulfill your underwater fantasy, here’s how to get it right.
Find Leverage
One of the hardest things about water intercourse is trying to get enough leverage to push. The weightlessness of the water is good when you’re spending a lazy day in the pool, but it doesn’t help when you’re trying to get inside. You will need to find props to give you enough leverage. Try sitting on the pool stairs, hot tub seats, or holding onto the handrail. Or stick to the shallow end where you can touch the bottom and hold onto the edge at the same time.
Be careful with condoms
If you have p-in-v or p-in-a sex and you don’t have a fluid bond (which means you haven’t made a conscious decision about unprotected sex), you need to use a condom. … This is where things get complicated. Most condoms can be used in water, but getting wet makes them more prone to slipping off. This, of course, could put you at risk of contracting an STI or pregnancy. In addition, the chemicals used to keep swimming pools clean can damage condoms. If you have sex in the pool, you may want to consider a polyurethane (as opposed to traditional latex) condom, as polyurethane resists chemicals like chlorine better.
The jacuzzi is even worse. Aside from the chemical, hot water can also destroy a condom (the problem with heat is that condom manufacturers advise you never to store condoms in your wallet).
Because of these risks, if you are not connected to your partner, you may want to skip underwater sex.
If you are using a strap or waterproof sex toy, you can disinfect the toy (follow the manufacturer’s instructions) before and after use instead of using a condom. (Of course, you can still use a condom if you like.)
Use a lubricant
Being underwater can make your limbs look nice and slippery, but it won’t affect your vagina or anus in any way. If anything, penetrating intercourse underwater can dry out your holes even further. I know this is illogical.
If you just went quick and you have a little discomfort, you might be fine. But if you have sex for a significant amount of time, then you need to use a lubricant for your underwater adventures. You cannot use a water-based lubricant because all the water around you will wash it off. Instead, you will need something that is silicone based. Do not use oil based lubricants, as removing them from the pool can be a nightmare.
Do your usual postpartum care
Another problem with water sex is that it can push chemicals and bacteria into a woman’s vagina or urethra, or a man’s urethra. This can cause irritation and – depending on the level of pollution in the water body – even lead to infection. Be sure to urinate afterward, drink plenty of water, and consider taking an over-the-counter dietary supplement for UTIs.
Hot tubs for fast guys only
Hot tubs can be good because the built-in seats make the levers easier to use. You can also use jets to give a little pleasure to your clitoris or anus (but be careful not to direct the jet into the vagina. This is rare, but can cause an air embolism). But you run the risk of overheating if you stay in the hot tub for too long (not to mention the fact that you just overheat from sex). If you want to have sex in the hot tub, do it quickly.
Skip the oceans and lakes
If any of you have a vagina, the ocean is not the best place to get down. The salt can sting the most sensitive parts. Lakes can be rich in bacteria that can infect the urethra in men and women.
Try a shower or bath
Most people think of sex in water and immediately imagine a pool, jacuzzi, or ocean. I know science fiction is fun, but it can be tricky places for the above reasons! You can have more enjoyment in your own shower or bath. Or try renting a good hotel with an amazing shower or bath. You don’t have to worry about chemicals, getting caught, or trying to clean the pool of lubricant.
Skip anal
Anal sex can sometimes be more messy than vaginal sex, so I wouldn’t recommend doing it in water. Many people get disgusted with anal sex because of the “poop factor”, but as a rule, these are only traces of feces, if any. It’s much cleaner than most people think. However, this is probably not something you want to leave in your buddy’s pool.
Consider foreplay instead.
Sexual intercourse underwater is difficult, but intercourse is not the only way to fool around with your partner. The foreplay can be just as hot. I don’t like the word “foreplay” because it is similar to the steps you take before moving on to the main event – intercourse. But foreplay can be much more fun than intercourse, especially when it comes to water. Have your partner lie on the floating raft with their crotch right next to the edge. You can have oral sex without the annoying swaying in your neck that can occur when maneuvering on the mattress. Or become a bit of an exhibitionist and try touching each other in the water when the other adults are some distance away. (Please don’t do this with nearby children.) Bring waterproof sex toys into the water and go crazy without worrying about leverage. There are many ways to get creative.
