My husband and I designed and (literally) built our own shower. It was a bitch, but worth it because it made us think about things like this. It's a nicely sized space split with a bath tub and shower. We've got a big waterfall shower head fixed at the center of the ceiling in the shower area, then a separate hosed shower head where one would normally place one. Then the other far end of the shower is slightly dryer with no direct water.

Kicks ass for having shower sex. Also great for just shower and/or bath time together to vent/chat in the middle of our work day.

cool shower

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 12 points 10 hours ago

Nice work. I'd definitely have sex in your shower.

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

That's super cool. Love the tile work.

[–] MTK@lemmy.world 20 points 17 hours ago

The other comments have stupid suggestions, the trick is that the one in the water pees on the other, that way no one stays cold.

If you're looking for a project...

+6 small pipe clamps (one on each end of the three APSH tube segments)

This setup has lasted through 5 different apartments. Wife mentioned she wished we had a double shower, and hated that we couldn't set one up in our apartment cuz we can't drill holes or w/e without owing a ton of money when we move out. Challenge accepted: made a double shower setup using only suction mounts.

One of these days I want to take this idea back to the drawing board and maybe use tension rods instead of suction cups, cuz they DO fail occasionally, which always sounds like a fucking plane crashed into our bathroom, but other than that we've both been super happy with it - even solo, having that hot water hit from both sides is peak comfort.

Also when selecting your shower heads and suction wall mounts, put some thought into how easily it will be to redirect the stream: ours aren't very mobile, and the weight of setup/tubing keeps them kinda fixed at a specific trajectory.

...iirc it was about $100 when all was said and done, but easily the largest chunk of that was getting two matching shower heads - you could probably go a lot cheaper if you find cheaper heads. ...or maybe not cuz everything is like 8x more expensive than it was 5 years ago...

Okay but how do you deal with your water pressure getting cut in half? Install a water heater pump?

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 8 points 15 hours ago (4 children)

The pressure from the wall is better than you might expect: nearly all shower heads have a pressure regulator inside of it - I'm assuming this is a legal requirement that manufacturers know users hate, cuz they tend to be easy to get at and bright red or blue. So, you'll want to pop the pressure regulator out of both heads.

Full wall spout pressure divided by two unregulated heads yields plenty on each side.

The issue you might run into is that your hot water will run out way faster than previously... then again, I live in an apartment, so I'm assuming our water heater is the cheapest shittiest one on the market, so you might have better luck on that front.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Reason why I asked is because I've tried a dual showerhead before and it sucked ass. It was completely useless unless one of the nozzles was off.

My parents actually have this, or something like it! In the master bathroom shower, there were 2 shower heads with one on a hose!

the key is to wash each other, not just take turns showering yourselves….
although shower sex is a lot trickier and not worth it….

[–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 2 points 46 minutes ago

You're right about the first part, the trick for the second part is just to shift shower time to be foreplay

[–] cRazi_man@europe.pub 55 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

The risk of falling and causing a serious head injury is the sexiest part though.

[–] ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 22 hours ago (7 children)

how do you do anything in life if you’re always afraid of such risks?

Wet sex is dry sex

[–] joelfromaus@aussie.zone 3 points 10 hours ago

All I’ll say is; silicone based lubricant.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 20 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

It’s pretty fun until you water board yourself

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 8 points 18 hours ago

Don't kink shame.

[–] ButteryMonkey@piefed.social 6 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

It’s worth it if you have silicone lube.. sometimes..

[–] BanMe@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

For when you want to come out of the shower water repellent, also if that gets on the shower floor it's game over, someone's gonna break a spine

[–] Imadethis@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 15 hours ago

Lol, I've sometimes wondered if my lube or my hair conditioner is more slippery. They both have caused some close calls in the shower.

Whenever I’m in there showering with my wife, it’s never fun, but it is important. Getting clean while discussing the impact of student loans on our budgets, worrying about politics, searching for hope, and drying off.

We come out better for it, but it’s nothing like what the movies suggest.

[–] UnculturedSwine@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 13 hours ago

Was gonna say, my hubby and I shower together intending to get freaky but we end up talking about deep shit and bonding without a single sexual thing happening.

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 60 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Do ya'll not touch your partner? Wash they hair or sumthn. Jesus.

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 38 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (2 children)

a lot of people don't.

i've dated women who didn't want me to touch/kiss them ever outside of sex. it was weird. i can imagine that some people tolerate that behaviour and just have a partner who never touches them. i will say they all had massive control/anxiety issues in other areas of their life as well. I've also had partners who hated certain sex acts that seemed perfectly fun/normal to me.

a lot of people have very strict beliefs about the context in which touch should occur even with romantic partners. or consider touch to be 'dirty'

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 22 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

That's valid but also kind of sad. I've dated ace before so I get that some people just aren't wired for certain things. I but feel a little bad for people who can't even have nonsexual contact free of shame, but maybe there's a perspective I'm lacking. Just feels like shame should have no place in a relationship even if physical touch isn't present either.

[–] real_squids@sopuli.xyz 24 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Some people just don't like being touched. Sometimes it's trauma, sometimes simple preference. It's not always about shame

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 8 points 16 hours ago

Sometimes it's autism. Touch is a lot of sensory.

Not all of that, but a whole lot of it is from being raised in... the American version of a Christian household.

These are the kind of parents who will spy on their kids, catch them masturbating, and then punish them harshly, tie it directly into their moral/spiritual validity as a person.

Puritanism is very much still alive and well.

It produces uptight, broken, neurotic people with those control and anxiety issues you mentioned.

It’s the emotional intimacy, and sharing in something mundane together.

Not “sexy,” but can be comforting and special anyway.

[–] saltnotsugar@lemmy.world 25 points 23 hours ago

Mmmm yeah. Baby it’s like rubbing two wet balloons together.

[–] garth@sh.itjust.works 24 points 23 hours ago (4 children)

Please look away for a moment while I wash my groin.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 17 points 23 hours ago (5 children)

My wife was horrified to discover I wash my ass crack with a face cloth.

How else do you get rid of the bits and pieces?

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

If you asked me yesterday what the opposite of using a bidet was, I would’ve said I have no idea. But now I know it’s whatever this person is doing

[–] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 12 points 19 hours ago

Erm. You're in the shower. Use soap + your hands. Also there shouldn't be larger "bits" there if you wiped properly... Eww

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 16 points 23 hours ago (18 children)

A bidet

Is the cloth's purpose only for your crack or is it a communal cloth? Like, was she using it as a face cloth before the discovery?
