My friends and family all seem to think I’m a freak because (among other things) I like to lie down in the shower. Apparently the concept is completely outlandish to most people. I guess if you’re just gonna get in, wash up and get out, you might as well stand. But I like to take a more leisurely approach to my bathing. I enjoy taking showers - they’re relaxing to me. Maybe most people see a shower as merely functional, but I consider them recreational, too. So I just want to know: am I the only one who does this? Obviously, if you’ve got one of those vertical cube showers it’s not feasible. But for those with a bathtub/shower combo, let me know. All upstanding, God-fearing citizens can leave the thread at this point, but for the rest of you (guys,mostly), I’ve got an additional TMI question:
Do you masturbate in the shower? Of course you do. So do I, and lying down makes it much easier. When I ask my friends, they all claim to stand up while doing the deed, and look at me like I’m a mongoloid when I tell them my method. I say I’m scared that if I was standing up I’d trip and fall when I reached climax. This inevitably makes me the object of derisive laughter. Please, tell me I’m not alone in this.
I really cant see laying down in there just for the hell of it, but when I’m ‘polishing the broadsword’, as it were, of course I’ll lay down. how can you really enjoy it if you have to concentrate on keeping your balance?
Hey woodstock no worries your not the only one who lies down in the shower just for the hell of it. I think it’s pretty relaxing to just chill out and lay down when showering. And as for doing the deed while showering I’m in your boat if I stood up while doing that I’d fall over when I climax.
Yes, I masturbate in the shower as well and I can see where you are coming from. The climax, the weak legs, the loss of balance, it would be easier lying down, but you can avert(sp?) this by using one hand to push against the shower wall and yes, indeed, lying down in the shower is not common at all.
Isn’t the back of the tub rather cold until the entire tub is filled with water? When I take a bath, I have to wait until the tub is almost full, or the back is too cold to rest against. Or does the cold sensation add to your experience? I am being serious. I want to know.
Oh, and besides the cold thing, I guess it would make sense to sit or lie down if one masturbated in the shower.
tatertot: yeah, the back of the tub is cold, but it’s not so bad if you spray some water from the shower nozzle onto it beforehand.
Thanks for the validation, brothers (Tiki and Mnem). And Mercutio, using one hand to brace yourself against the shower wall may work, but it’s more effort than I’m willing to put into it.
Nope, I can’t say I lay down in the shower. Its just kinda weird to me. As far as, um, “taking care of business”, balance isn’t really a problem for me.
I’m 6’5", I have trouble laying down in most tubs, it’s more like sitting in an extremely uncomfortable position.
I find that when I masturbate standing up or sitting up, the orgasms seem more intense - but it also takes me longer, so I usually masturbate laying down (in bed).
I sit down in the shower, but I don’t lie down. I rarely masturbate in the shower because the water makes it difficult. For some reason, when my dick is covered with water, it makes it difficult to build up steam. The water just isn’t slippery enough. I do better with a dry dick. (I rarely use lubrication.)
I like to masturbate lying down whenever possible. My favorite position is on my back, with my shirt off, using both hands. This gives me, hands down, the best orgasms. Thrashing, mind-bending, eye-popping orgasms.

Yeah, but it would be even better if you weren’t circumcised.

mmm…showers. All the TMI you need, lets go.
I will sit in showers, not the ones here at school, but clean tub/shower combos. Its like playing naked in warm rain. I don’t maturbate, but I do give blow jobs.
I love giving blowjobs in the shower. Its better than playing naked in warm rain. Part of it is the standing thing, he has to work to keep standing so he can keep getting a blow job. Its a great power trip. I’m also a big fan of having guys tangle thier fingers in my hair, and with wet, drippy hair it just increases the effect. Digging fingers into trembling ass muscles while he grabs ontpo my head fighting for balance…mmmm…way too much fun.
Sigh. Drat…I just got out of the shower, the lonely get in, get clean and get out kind. I much prefer the other kind.
Medea’s Child:
Damn!
And I’m at work right now.
Now I can’t get up from my desk.
Damn!
You shouldn’t do that to an old man.
Damn!
I’m also 6’5" so I cannot completely lay down in the shower but i do the sitting/lying combo as reclined as possible. As for masturbation in the shower…this is gonna sound weird…i don’t do it in the shower and one of the main reasons is because i almost always stand up while masturbating and i lie down in the shower. This isn’t the only reason I dont do it in the shower though, i tend to take extremely hot showers and I can barely breathe in there as it is, trying to masturbate would probably kill me.
I masturbate standing up in the shower, haven’t fallen over yet. I have sex standing up in the shower too, which is about the only way 2 people can do it in there. Almost fell over a few times doing that, but that wasn’t caused by climaxing. Climaxing in the shower always seems different somehow, although I can’t really say how.
I don’t lie down in the shower just for the hell of it. Not that I’m against it, I’ve just never done it. Maybe if I cleaned my tub more often…
I’ve never had a lying down shower. I don’t feel I’m missing much, but I can see why y’all could want to.
Random story that seems to fit this thread:
Last year I worked in a computer game testing lab, I was the only woman and the guys were all aged 18-24. There was this one kid who was about 22 and living with his girlfriend. Somehow this subject came up (who am I kidding, sex always comes up) and it quickly became obvious that it had never occurred to this guy to masturbate in the shower. He seemed really embarassed about it, but managed to surreptitiously poll everybody else in the office about their favorite soap over the following week.
A few days later I was sick of all the whispering, so I went to the drugstore and bought him 10 different brands of soap and told him to go home and experiment. He did, and then he called in sick the next 3 days. He always insisted he was really sick, but nobody believed him.
OK, maybe it was funnier if you knew him.
You know, the thought of lying down while taking a shower has never even crossed my mind! Hmmm. Somehow I feel deprived now. 
I rarely masturbate in the shower anyway, unless there’s company, but mainly because electrocution ain’t my thing.
Seems to me that if you are just lying down in the shower for the hell of it, the nice warm water would only be striking a relatively small portion of your body. At least, with the shower head I currently have, either my legs and feet or my chest and arms would be out in the cold. That’s no good. When you stand, the warm water runs from the back of your neck all the way down. I can’t imagine that squirming around in the tub to get all parts covered is much fun.
I normally stand. I’ve been known to sit if I’m really sick and am having difficulty staying upright.
As for the other reason, yeah, I sit for that.
You know, I’ve put some thought into this, and I think what is called for is shower seats. You know the kind that the elderly or disabled use? That way you could sit down, relax, do your thing without having to deal with a cold tub, finding a comfy position, ect. It would be great if they could make them like giant waterproof lazy boys and have a shower head that rotates around the seat, giving you full water coverage. Heck, I’d buy one if they made em!
I need a COLD shower now, and several hours of work left. Hey, I have an idea! Wanna come over for some good, clean fun later?
