Sex in the Water: 7 Risks to Consider

Sex in the Water: 7 Risks to Consider

Sex in the Water: 7 Risks to Consider

Whether your unrealistic romantic fantasy is akin to The Notebook's dreamy moments, or John Cusack serenading Diane with a boom box in Say Anything, it's likely you've fantasised about some sort of sexy water moment at some point.

We hate to shatter your dreams, but despite the movies making it all seem picture-perfect, there are several risks you'll want to consider before diving head first. Having sex in a pool or the ocean isn't totally off-bounds, but you’ll want to take into account a few precautions first!

1. Uncleanliness

Whether it's your grandma's pool or the Pacific Ocean, most bodies of water, whether public or private, aren't going to be the most hygienic. Pools have chlorine and can also contain a lot of bacteria. Think about it. Unless the pool is cleaned every day, it's almost impossible to tell what sort of bacteria and germs could be floating around.

Lakes and oceans aren't much better. These bodies of water can carry bacteria like E.coli and salmonella. Having PIV sex can essentially mean that this bacteria is pushed directly into the vagina, and most health professionals will advise against even dipping your toes in the water – let alone having sex in the water!

It's not confirmed that you'll contract anything from having sex in water, but if you're planning on a splashing around in a natural body of water, you should look out for any warning signs! Most areas that are popular for swimming will have signs posted if they have been tested for E.coli and other bacteria, so do a bit of research before you pick your spot.

2. Privacy

Hopefully you've already considered the issue of privacy, but if not, then you might want to take a moment to think about where you'd like to live out your fantasies. Your own pool is probably the safest bet – but if you have flatmates, kids, or people staying over, it might still be a little risky. Your favourite spot at the lake could be a winner, but keep in mind that it's a public place!

Wherever you decide to do the deed, make sure you and your partner are aware and prepared for any awkward encounters or situations!

3. Dryness

You might assume that water would work just as well as your favourite lubricant, but sadly, that's not the reality! Water actually doesn't work as a lubricant at all, and it can wash away any natural lubricant, making things pretty dry down there! Therefore it's likely you'll experience a little bit of friction in the water, which can potentially be painful and uncomfortable for both parties.

If you're determined to live out your wet n' wild fantasy, you'll want to invest in a quality silicone lubricant. Silicone lube is your best bet for sex in the water as it will remain slippery and won't wash off as quickly!

While silicone lube can be a little pricier than other varieties, it's definitely worth the extra cash! Moist and System Jo are both popular brands that will help keep things a little more smooth running!

4. UTIs

UTIs are fairly common for women, but men can get them, too. A UTI, or urinary tract infection, is an infection in any part of the urinary system. There are many causes of UTIs, but the most common is simply the spread of bacteria. The symptoms often aren't too serious, but can be quite uncomfortable and inconvenient, and potentially lead to ongoing issues.

With all the bacteria swarming around you, your chance of getting a UTI is increased as the bacteria can get pushed into a women's urethra during sex. Take notes, ladies! If you're willing to risk it, do a bit of research on how to deal with UTIs just in case.

5. STIs

Using condoms underwater pretty much sounds like the most inconvenient thing ever. Even if you manage to get it on properly, the water adds another element to consider and could result in the condom breaking or slipping off. And by the way, despite popular belief, STIs don’t travel through water – so if you do end up with one, it’ll only be from direct contact!

6. Pregnancy

It should go without saying, but you can still get pregnant while having sex in the water. Unfortunately the river's current won't wash away the semen and leave you worry-free! As mentioned, using condoms in the water might not be the best idea, so you should make sure you have another form of birth control as a back-up – or make sure you're comfortable ditching the condom if it comes down to that!

7. Pleasure

A lot of the times, having sex in the water can be a bit of a disappointment, particularly if you've hyped it up and are expecting something mind-blowing.

Why not start out in the water with a bit of foreplay? Taking a toy with you could be a great way to ensure that you get your romantic water moment, while having a pleasurable experience.

Something as small and discreet as a bullet vibe can be the perfect companion! Use this powerful, pocket-sized vibe to stimulate the clitoris, or gently rub it against a man's perineum (the area between the anus and scrotum).

Then, when you're ready for the grand finale, takes things back on land – make sure you pack a towel or two!

Stay safe this summer! When done right, having sex in the water can be a thrilling experience – but it's always best to keep in mind the risks to plan ahead and keep everything safe. For all your adult toy needs, Adulttoymegastore has a huge selection of sex toys including vibrators, cock rings and dildos. With discreet shipping, friendly customer service and price guarantee, you'll find everything you need for a pleasurable sex life!
