Golden Shower: What is it, and how can you do it safely?

A golden shower is when someone urinates on another person (or multiple people) for sexual pleasure.

Other names for sex acts that involve urination are water sports, urophilia, or urolagnia.

Other water sport kinks include:

• Wetting yourself.
• Voyeuristically watching someone pee (with consent, of course!).
• Holding your pee until you’re busting.

What Does a Golden Shower Involve?

In plain English, a golden shower involves peeing on someone. This is the basic idea, and it can range from a simple splash to more elaborate setups. 

A golden shower in sex can be foreplay or part of your aftercare routine. Some couples even practice it daily.

Is a Golden Shower Kinky?

Yes, golden showers are considered a kink.

Although it might sound weird if you haven’t heard about it before, wanting to give or receive a golden shower is a common BDSM kink.

Looking to experience your first golden shower, but feeling nervous about asking someone to do it with you? An AI girlfriend is the answer. With HeraHaven AI, you can create the woman of your dreams and explore anything you’d like to try.

Why Do People Like It?

Reasons why some think of golden showers as a highly erotic experience include:

• The domination or submissive aspect. As in, “Yes, Daddy, golden shower me.” You’re a master wanting to mark his territory or a submissive whose deepest desire is to be degraded. Many people use golden showers to explore power dynamics such as humiliation and degradation. 
• It’s a tactile thing. Golden showers can be a pleasurable sensory experience for both the giving and receiving partner. The physical relief felt when the bladder empties can create a sense of relaxation and release. The flowing sensation of warm urine leaving the body or spilling over your body can also feel really good.
• Forbidden fruit. Some people love the NSFW or taboo nature of this kink. The socially unacceptable nature of golden showers can provide an intense psychological thrill.
• Fantasy zone. You don’t need to practice golden showers with a partner to explore this kink. Even just thinking about peeing on someone or being peed on can be a huge turn-on. 

Where To Do It

Golden showers are a little messier than most sex acts, so where should you do it?

• At the risk of stating the obvious, your bed or couch is not the place for a golden shower. You don’t want to have to take an emergency trip to IKEA to replace your urine-soaked mattress or throw cushions.  
• A golden shower in the shower, however, makes perfect sense. We recommend your shower or bathtub because it makes it easy to clean up.
• As long as it’s not within eyeshot of your neighbors, your garden could also be a cute setting. Side note: Some plants (like citrus plants) love being fertilized with urine, but make sure to dilute the urine down after with a squirt from your house.  

How Can You Do It Safely?

How can you practice golden showers and make sure everyone stays psychologically and physically safe? 

• Talk to your partner. As with any sexual practice, consent is key. The reality is that not everyone is into the same things. Therefore, you need to test the waters (pun intended) by asking your partner if they would like to give or receive a golden shower. Choose a time when you are both feeling relaxed. Tell them it’s something you’re curious about and are wondering if it’s something they would like to try. Let them know it’s okay if they’re not into it.
• If you’re giving a golden shower, avoid eating or drinking things that can make your wee whiffy. These include asparagus, supplements, garlic, and onions.
• Drink up, especially in the morning. Concentrated urine can be a bit intense, especially for first-timers. Many golden shower aficionados recommend that you consume a lot of water and pee to flush your system. Then drink more water before giving the golden shower.
• Don't pee on open cuts, into eyes etc. It’s a myth that urine is sterile because it can contain bacteria.

A safe way to explore a kink or fantasy is to chat about it with an AI girlfriend. With HeraHaven AI, you can create your own AI girlfriend and roleplay any situation, including a golden shower.

Types of Golden Showers

A golden shower isn’t just one thing. There are many variations, which include: 

• A 69 golden shower. Hopefully that’s self-explanatory.
• A golden shower in the face. Some people like to taste their partner’s pee when receiving a golden shower. You don’t have to swallow it and you can also kneel to the side of your partner’s stream to lap it with your tongue rather than having it all go into your mouth.
• A latex golden shower. Combining the wet look of latex with the wetness of urine can be a seductive experience.  

Is It Safe to Drink Urine as Part of a Golden Shower?

• Urine is a waste product that the body is trying to get rid of, so your doctor will probably tell you that drinking it isn’t a great idea. This is because urine contains waste products and toxins filtered out by the kidneys. Consuming it, therefore, means putting those waste substances back into your body.
• But hey, if survivalists like Bear Grylls can chug it to prevent fatal dehydration, that means it’s not an absolute no-no, right?
• Ultimately, choosing to drink your partner’s urine comes down to a personal decision based on your own risk tolerance.
• Some people who do take part in drinking urine suggest drinking pineapple juice to make it taste sweeter.

Golden Showers in Pop Culture

References to golden showers in film and television include:

• Adam getting a staff member to pee on his face in Season 4 of You. The scene went viral, probably helped along by the choice to dress Adam in a pair of safety goggles.
• Carrie’s discomfort with a lover’s urine fetish in Sex and the City. She offers to dribble warm tea on him instead.
• In American Pie 2, Stifler closes his eyes, expecting a sexy champagne shower but gets peed on from an overhead balcony instead.
