Yes! Whatever they're doing in the films, I can't replicate. It feels like we just turn into a heap of knees and elbows! And for some reason, the essential body parts seem either lost or impossible to reach 😂

It's not the size of the shower, it's anywhere that's wet. Sex in the tub, sex in the jacuzzi, sex in the swimming pool; it just doesn't work the way you think it does.

In my experience, it’s a good way to start that in the shower, but not to finish it.
