{{quote|"Shower sex is always an explosive orgasm machine in movies. In [[Real Life]], shower sex invariably results in both parties emerging insufficiently washed and sexually unsatisfied."|'''[[Nathan Rabin]]''', [http://www.avclub.com/articles/colorblind-and-comically-convoluted-case-file-142,30685/ reviewing] ''Color of Night''}}
Two people have sex under a running shower. Since shower windows have a tendency to get steamed up, this allows for literal [[Censor Steam]]. [[Wall-Bang Her]] ''is'' a possibility, but there is the likelihood of injury from slip and fall (which hardly happens in fiction, unless one was to write a screwball romantic comedy and turn that scene into slapstick). [[Two-Person Pool Party]] is similar to this, only it's two people having sex in a bathtub, Jacuzzi, or a pool (public or
Often an example of [[Hollywood Sex]], although [[Your Mileage May Vary]].
See also [[Shower of Angst]] (when a character showers to wash away shame, misery, and/or embarrassment), [[Shower of Awkward]] (when [[Hilarity Ensues]] when one character walks in on another showering), and [[Shower Scene]] ([[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]).

{{examples}}
== Advertising ==
* This is the point of every advert ever created for Herbal Essences shampoo. Most shampoo commercials knowingly hint at it, but these ones take it [[Up to Eleven]] with lashings of [[Double Entendre]] and scenes of women in the throes of [[The Immodest Orgasm|very Immodest "Organic"]] experiences.
* When you apply Axe's [[Sex for Product]] marketing scheme to their line of body wash, you get this.
▲== Anime & Manga ==
* A [[Girls Love]] example can be found in one of the scenes of the erotic [[Manga]], ''[[Hanjuku Joshi]]''.
* The [[Hentai]] movie ''Countdown'' starts with one of these. Needless to say, the artist didn't bother with [[Censor Steam]].
Line 25:
* Such a scene happens in ''[[Hyakujitsu no Bara]]'', but decidly not the [[Good People Have Good Sex]] sort.
* ''[[Full Metal Panic!|Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid]]'' has a [[Twincest]] scene involving the two girl assassins.
* Souma Mizuno from the romance hentai ''[[Fire in His Fingertips]]'' attempted this with Ryo Fujihashi but a blackout ruined it forcing him to go look for candles.
== Comic Books ==
== Comics ==▼
* ''[[XXXenophile]]'' story "The Spirit is Willing" (sex with the ghost of a woman that died in a shower).
* In the ''Jay and Silent Bob'' comic book mini-series, Jay tries to have sex with Tricia in the shower but she kicks him out.
* In a 2009 issue of ''[[Wonder Woman]],'' she returns from a battle dirty and sweaty. She asks her boyfriend Nemesis if he'd like to shower with her. {{spoiler|He breaks up with her instead. Lunatic.}}
* Used (like just about every other sex trope) in ''[[Cherry Comics]]''. See "Beach Party" for one example.
== Films ==
Line 52 ⟶ 51:
* Parodied (with bare boobies) in the "Catholic High School Girls in Trouble" segment of ''[[Kentucky Fried Movie]]''. With each thrust, the woman's (Uschi Digard) breasts are briefly [[Wall-Bang Her|pressed against the shower stall glass]].
* Heartbreakingly rendered in ''[[Snow Falling on Cedars]]'', when the young new widow, in the middle of a courtroom scene to determine the guilt of her husband's accused killer, flashes back to one of the last times she saw her husband alive: having [[Good People Have Good Sex]] in the shower with him. ''[[Your Mileage May Vary|What a tearjerker...]]''
* Ana and her briefly-seen husband do this in the ''[[Dawn of the Dead (2004 film)|Dawn of the Dead]]'' remake. Below the neck you just see outlines.
* In [[Night Watch|Daywatch]] the protagonist chooses this way to reveal his feelings to his [[Love Interest]] (no sex, though, just heavy snogging). Bonus points for him residing in a woman's body in that moment. [[Girl-On-Girl Is Hot|Hell, yeah!]]
** And then they end up in a tropical lagoon. [[Wild Magic|Because that's what happens when you surprise an archmage in the shower.]]
* Right after the infamous line in ''[[Shark Attack 3: Megalodon]]'', the main character invites a woman over for one of these.
* ''[[It Started with a Kiss]]'', as shown in the page image.
== Literature ==
* Used (and showerheads were, ah, utilised) in a certain Rei Shimura novel.
* In ''[[The Dresden Files]]'' novel ''Proven Guilty'', though not outright stated, it is implied that Michael and Charity Carpenter had one of these right before he leaves to go on another mission.
* Turns up in Eric van Lustbader' novel ''The Ninja'', with an unexpected [[Interplay of Sex and Violence|masochistic]] turn.
Line 67 ⟶ 66:
She smiled. "Who said anything about going one at a time?" }}
== Live
* Subverted in the premier of ''[[Alias (TV series)|Alias]]'', where Sydney lures her fiance into the shower with the implication she wants to have sex, when she really wants to use the noise the shower makes to hide that she's telling him about her real job as a spy.
* In an early second season episode of ''[[In Plain Sight]]'', Mary goes to her boyfriend's house and finds him in the shower. After they talk, he asks her for a towel. She opens all the cabinets and finds nothing but a washcloth. The next scene is the washcloth hanging on the door handle and her stepping into the shower. {{spoiler|He'd replaced a suitcase full of drugs with the towels to foil the FBI, and no one had been able to explain the towels.}}
* ''[[Charmed]]'' had one between Leo and Piper. A later [[Time Travel]] episode had Phoebe walking in on this scene.
* Kind of subverted in ''[[Criminal Minds]]'', when Garcia's talking to JJ about showering with Kevin. "Sometimes a girl's just got to wash her hair alone, you know?"
* Kevin and Toby have at least one steamy shower sex scene on ''[[
* [[Shower Scene
* The short-lived British sitcom ''The Savages'' had the main characters doing this, then wondering why it had been so long since they tried it. They remember it was because they could never agree on the water temperature.
* Mentioned in the ''[[All in The Family]]'' episode "The Very Moving Day", when Gloria finds out that she's pregnant, and she and Mike blame each other for the time they had sex without protection:
Line 79 ⟶ 78:
'''Mike:''' I know, I took one, it didn't help!
'''Gloria:''' BECAUSE YOU TOOK IT WITH ME! }}
== Music ==
* Alluded to in R&B group 112's song "Anywhere"
▲== Web Comics ==
▲* [[Questionable Content|"Aaaaaaaand there goes my boner."]]
== Western Animation ==
* In ''[[The Simpsons]]'' episode
* in ''[[Family Guy]]'' episode
