With the arrival of summer, the inclination to engage in sexual activity outdoors often increases. However, transitioning intimate moments to natural environments, such as beaches, poolsides, or boats, inherently elevates the potential for injuries. For a comfortable and secure experience, awareness of your surroundings, proper protection, and carrying a blanket are highly recommended by experts in sexual health and entertainment.
Friction burns are a frequently reported sexual injury. During summer, these can easily occur from activities on abrasive surfaces like sand at the beach, rough pool edges, or even picnic blankets. Furthermore, the presence of sand, dirt, or chlorinated water can irritate sensitive areas, potentially leading to discomfort or infections if not addressed promptly. While certain scenarios, such as 'sex on the beach,' might seem appealing in theory or in cinematic portrayals, their practical execution can pose significant risks.
When you choose to be intimate in locations other than your bed — perhaps on a slippery pool step or within a swaying hammock — your stability is naturally compromised. It is essential to remember that these environments lack the inherent support and safety of a traditional bed, necessitating increased caution to prevent unexpected physical strains or sprains.
While sun protection is commonly applied to visible skin, intimate areas that are typically shielded from sunlight are particularly vulnerable to sunburn when exposed. If you anticipate removing clothing in sunny outdoor settings, it is advisable to consider applying SPF to these sensitive regions. Should the desire for beachside intimacy arise, seeking out a shaded spot is a wise precaution.
Whether you're enjoying a spontaneous moment while camping or near a lake, it's vital to be aware of insects. While direct application of bug repellent to intimate areas is not recommended, measures should be taken to avoid being bitten by flies, mosquitoes, or other pests. Lighting mosquito repellent candles or moving your intimate encounter to the enclosed space of a car can offer a similar thrill while providing protection from insects.
