Ahh… The Golden Shower– The Ultimate Pleasure of the Gods? Err… Maybe…

According to ye-old greek mythology, it all started with a beautiful princess (typical).

This Princess Danae found herself unwillingly scoped out by the God of Gods, Zeus (also…typical). So he decided to bless her with a golden shower– super yummy. The mortals below were so mesmerized by the beauty of this shower, they couldn’t help but fall in love with it. And so the trend of taking a golden shower was born.

If you haven’t caught on to the… jist… of this love act– Zeus had literally decided to urinate on this poor lady from the heavens above to impregnate her with a demi-god. That guy (insert eye-roll).

Now, some historians might argue he threw gold coins on her…but the golden shower story has stuck.

Are you looking to explore the taboo of golden shower play, too?

Let’s get WET and WILD.

So… What Exactly is a Golden Shower?

It’s a sexual activity where you’ll urinate on your partner(s) or they’ll pee on you.

Golden shower sextivities can be an incredibly erotic experience that brings both pleasure and arousal to everyone involved. And it’s a naughty way to spice up your sex life. Because who doesn’t love a good sexual taboo??

Why Do You LOVE Taboo Sexual Activities?

Exploring taboo sexual kinks can be an amazingly awesome experience for your relationship.

It’ll bring you closer and lead you to a more fulfilling and exciting sex life (yes, please!). People love exploring taboo sexual activities because it gives them the opportunity to live out their wildest fantasies and desires. It’s a great way to challenge all those pesky social norms and push your boundaries. And you’re gonna kick those feelings of shame and guilt– because you’re exploring these taboo topics in a safe space without the risk of judgment.

But.. pee is kinda gross.

Agreed. In the normal course of your day, you’re not fantasizing about urine and urination (or maybe you are– not judging). We’ve all seen the latest beauty craze of rubbing pee on your face for that all-so-settle glow–AKA “pee facials”. And while there are mixed opinions on those… services… it’s still good to recognize the risks of urine.

While golden showers can be an INCREDIBLY sensual and intimate experience, it’s super important to remember you’re still exchanging bodily fluids. You’re gonna need to take precautions to minimize the chance of spreading bacteria and infections (double yuck).

Here are some basic tips to follow:

1. Don’t pee directly on any injuries or skin abrasions
2. Don’t urinate or get urine directly into the eyes
3. Try not to swallow any urine you may collect in your mouth (yes–this is a thing)
4. Use clean water and thoroughly wash any toys, towels, or sheets used during your play
5. Do your urination play in a shower or take a shower directly after your playtime

All ready to play? Awesome. Now let’s get your partner on board.

How Are You Gonna Chat It Up With Your Partner?

Let’s be real…the idea of golden showers can be a bit tricky, so it’s super critical to be sensitive and respectful when bringing it up to your partner. Because not everyone is gonna be down for this type of sexual play (or maybe they’ve never thought about it).

Here are 5 conversation starters you can use to get those erotic thoughts going:

1. “I’ve been thinking about trying something new in the bedroom — have you ever heard of golden showers?”

2. “I recently read about this thing called golden showers — have you ever about it?”

3. “I think it could be really fun to try something new, like golden showers — does this sound sexy to you?”

4. “I was wondering if you’d be open to trying golden showers — do you think that’d turn you on?”

5. “I’d love to explore the idea of golden showers with you — what do you think?”

No matter what, start the conversation slow and make sure your partner is comfy with the idea. Talk about it openly and honestly– make sure to emphasize this is something you want to do TOGETHER. Not “hey… I’d love to pee on you”.

Once you and your partner BOTH consent to this new sextivity– it’s time to figure out how you want to play.

Different Ways to Play the Golden Shower Game

The cool part about exploring new kinks? Making your sexual experiences YOUR own.

Because there’s no right or wrong way to add a little spice to your sex life via golden shower goodness. But… if you’re kinda a newbie to the whole kink/fetish scene– here are some sex-spirational ideas.

The Fetish Scene

For those of you who love a bit of kink and fetish play, a golden shower scene can be incredibly exciting. The Dominant partner can dress in leather, latex, or other fetishwear and the submissive partner can take on the role of a willing participant. The Dom then urinates on the sub, creating a beautiful and sensual display of power and pleasure.

The Domination Scene

If you’re more into power play and humiliation, a domination scene can be incredibly arousing. The Dom can use the golden shower to assert their power over their sub, making the experience incredibly exciting and thrilling. Wanna little more degradation added to the scene? Write “pee slut” on their body prior to any urination (IF this is their thing).

The Pleasure Scene

If you’re less into power play and more into the satisfaction of the warm urine drenching your body, a pleasure scene can be incredibly intimate. You and your partner can enjoy the sensation of the warm liquid without any power play or humiliation– making it an incredibly pleasurable experience. You can add a little praise kink to your delightful golden shower by telling your partner how sexy they look and how proud of them you are.

The Bondage Scene

For those of you who are tantalized by ropes, chains, and restraints (oh my)- a bondage scene can be a kinky way to explore your golden shower kink. The submissive partner can be restrained while the Dominant partner urinates on them, creating a thrilling and intoxicating experience. Safety Tip– If you’re gonna be gagged or bound in a way you can’t vocalize, make sure to establish some non-verbal cues to let your partner know if you’re in duress. AND for the love of goodness — DO NOT water board them ala pee.

The Mutual Scene

So you’ve decided you BOTH want a golden shower, a mutual scene can be super hot. Both you and your partner can take turns urinating on each other, either as a form of power play or simply for the pleasure of it. Whatever the case, it can be a great way to explore the golden shower kink together.

Don’t forget to speak up during your play.

You’re exploring golden showers as a pleasurable experience–so do your partner (and yourself) a solid and speak up! If something isn’t working, say “Babe, I’m so happy you’re into this, but you accidentally peed in my eye, can we take a break?”. Or, if you’re loving a certain sensation, encourage them with a “Yes! This feels amazing” or “You’re so sexy, I’m so turned on right now”.

Safewords are a must.

These are non-sexual words used in BDSM to let your partner when you’re not having a good time–something hurts, you feel grossed out or uncomfy OR you need to STOP playing immediately.

Of course, you can shout the phrase “pineapple”…but the traffic-light system is a great intro to using safewords during your sexploration.

Red for “stop” and yellow for “slow down”.

How to Setup Your Golden Shower Sextivity

1. Shower before AND after your golden shower experience. Taking a shower before and after your golden shower experience is essential in keeping things clean and hygienic. Now it’s not essential you shower before (because maybe your partner loves to watch makeup smear down your face from their hot urine). But it is SUPER important to take a shower after your peed on. This will keep you from getting any gross infections or bacteria.

2. Set up the area with a waterproof sheet or tarp. Setting up the area with a waterproof sheet or tarp can make it easier to clean up afterward, as well as protect your furniture or flooring from any messes (yuck). Or simply avoid the mess by exploring your golden shower scene in an actual shower stall or bathtub. Easy peasy.

3. Communicate with your partner. Communicate. Communicate. Communicate. Communication is key for any successful golden shower experience. Make sure you and your partner are on the same page about what to expect and what you both enjoy. Talk about where you want to urine to land, if you want it to go in your mouth, or if you want to avoid certain body parts.

4. Have an aftercare plan. Even if you enjoy peeing on your partner or getting peed on, you still NEED to do some aftercare when your playtime is complete. Shower, brush your teeth, snuggle, and talk about the scene. This is all about creating trust and intimacy with your partner.

Golden Shower Accessories and Toys

Maybe urination is enough for you… but maybe you want more? Explore these accessories and toys to add some extra pizzazz (salt bae style).

Shower Head

A shower head is a great way to add a bit of extra fun to your golden shower play. Simply attach the shower head to your shower or bathtub and bask in the sensation of the warm spray (both water and urine).

Waterproof Sheets

Waterproof sheets can help keep your golden shower play mess-free. Simply spread the sheet out on the floor or bed (or kitchen table) and enjoy the sensation of the warm liquid squirting, dripping, and sliding down your body.

Lube

Lubricants are honestly a GREAT addition to any sexytime play. It helps reduce friction and overall makes the whole experience smoother (see what I did there).

Massage Oils

Massage oils are a great way to add a bit of extra sensuality to your golden shower play. Simply apply the massage oil to your body and enjoy the sensation of the warm liquid.

Funnels

Funnels are a playful way to ensure a kinky-good time during your golden shower sexploration. Simply place the funnel over your partner’s body and let them relish in your warm liquidy goodness washing over their skin.

But wait… there’s more! Wanna become a connoisseur of urine?

Exploring Different Urine Flavors

Yes, as previously stated, some peeps love to hold urine in their mouth. So flavor… is kinda a big deal.

Urine can come in many different flavors, from sweet and tangy to savory and salty. Depending on what you’ve been eating, your urine can take on a variety of different tastes.

Eating foods such as asparagus, garlic, and onions can give your urine a more distinct and pungent flavor. While eating foods such as pineapple or melon can give your urine a sweeter taste. Drinking plenty of water can also help to dilute the taste of your urine and make it more pleasant.

Exploring the different flavors of urine can be an incredibly fun and exciting experience– if you’re into that thing.

The Bottom Line

Golden Showers are a fabulously intimate and erotic way to spice up your sex life! From the ancient Greeks to the modern-day kinkster, this taboo sextivity has been around for centuries. Exploring the different types of golden shower scenes can be a pleasurable and sexy way to push your boundaries and indulge in your wildest fantasies.
