What’s not to like about shower coupling? It’s steamy
(literally), streams of water cascade down both lovers’ bodies and, of course,
both are already bare. Shower coupling can be thrilling for both partners, but
there are special considerations that need to be kept in mind, ones that don’t
always come into play in the bedroom (or any other place besides the shower).
Regular showers are clearly a component of good male organ health, and shower coupling
can be a healthy component of one’s romantic life when the following are taken
into account.
Lube Back-Up
There are few places wetter than the shower, but, somewhat
ironically, showers can dry out natural lubrication from the male and female
organs. That’s because the water washes away the organs’ lube, and water simply
doesn’t pass muster when it comes to providing adequate friction prevention
during coupling.
Silicone-based lubricants are a couple’s best bet in the shower,
as they’re the hardest for shower water to wash away. Ample lubrication is important
for preventing friction that can result in male and female organ soreness. So
keep a good silicone-based lube handy for shower play.
Be Safe
Nothing kills the mood like a partner slipping in the tub during
intimate activity. This is not only categorically unappealing, but poses a
serious health risk should the fallen partner smack his or her head on the tub
or wall.
The first step to preventing falls during shower coupling is to
ensure that a shower mat is placed securely on the base of the tub. Shower mats
provide friction that prevents slips on the wet, soapy shower floor.
Second, couples should consider investing in a few shower
handles. Inexpensive, detachable handles with suction cups allow partners to
move them around easily, helping keep both partners steady in a variety of
positions.
Another safety area to consider is the use of protection. Some
are concerned that barriers are more likely to slip off in the shower. Men can
combat this concern by not standing directly in the water stream.
Don’t Push It
For some people, coupling in the shower means more openness to
activities they aren’t interested in when in a dry environment, particularly
when their usual lack of interest involves concerns of cleanliness. Posterior
play, whether penetration or stimulation by a finger or mouth, is one common
area of sensual activity that becomes more acceptable to some when in the
shower.
However, a man should never assume that a partner who is
uninterested in posterior play outside the shower is necessarily down for it
during sudsy time. Ideally, couples will discuss this before the clothes come
off. If partners are already in the shower and a man wants to know, he should
always ask before pursuing a new sensual activity. Never place one’s finger,
mouth or male organ near another’s posterior without prior consent. Otherwise,
a man risks not only turning a partner off completely, but violating him or her
as well and causing a major rift in trust.
Take Care of the Male Organ
If a man has taken the above considerations into mind, he’s
likely to have some pretty amazing coupling sessions in the shower. Even though
he may have used plenty of lube, it’s not unheard of to experience manhood
soreness or irritation after vigorous romps. That’s why applying a moisturizer
to the male organ is a good idea. A quality male
organ health cream (health
professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) not only contains natural hydrators
like vitamin E and Shea butter, but ingredients that promote member sensitivity
and proper blood flow as well, like acetyl L-carnitine and L-arginine. Keeping
the coupling safe and the male organ healthy will benefit both partners,
whether in the shower or in bed.
