Is Shower Sex Worth It? That Depends On Who You Ask

When you think about getting hot and heavy, sometimes it’s nice to switch up the location. A comfortable bed is always a safe bet, but if you’re feeling adventurous or just bored of the same old routine and tired of that one spring poking into your ass every time he thrusts into you, you might want to try something else. The stairs? The kitchen counter (which you hopefully disinfect after the act)? All of those are great — but what about shower sex?

When it comes to screwing under a stream of hot water, people seem to be torn. Either you appreciate the erotic nature of getting dirty while you’re getting clean, or you think it’s a huge hassle and a potential disaster that could end with a concussion or broken leg. So what’s the deal? Is it worth it?

Buzzfeed asked a bunch of people just that, and as you’d probably expect, each of them have a very different perspective of whether or not shower sex is a good idea.

Everyone in the video makes fair points, whether they’re for or against the idea, and like most things, it really just comes down to personal preference. What do you think?
