For us couples spending the entire Fourth of July week in a crowded vacation home surrounded by extended family or lots of friends, sex can be tricky. My husband and I go up to my family’s lake house almost every weekend, but on this holiday weekend, it will be overrun with guests and we will be sharing a room with our children for at least the first few days.
For me and my husband, four days without making some of our own personal fireworks will make for a very sad Independence Day. Besides, endless amounts of free time, hot, sweaty weather, and lots of exposed skin makes for some serious desire.
Because of this, we have become experts in the art of sneaky sex. And by the way, the sneaking around alone makes it kind of hot, because it has that “We are 17 and so horny we can’t wait to tear each other’s clothes off” vibe.
Some of our ideas for sneaking in sex during the Fourth of July holiday are:
On a Boat
I realize not everyone has a boat, but at our lake place, there is a pontoon boat and there are some secret coves where nobody goes. Except us, natch.
At the Drive-In
We go to the drive-in almost every night when we are at the lake. There are two screens showing two different double features, but by the third night, we have seen all the movies and spend that four hours involved in our own Hollywood moment. In private. At the Drive-In. It is all so Bob Seger and delicious.
On a Rock
Last year, my husband and I got creative and snuck out into the woods. Where we found a giant rock. That rock is now “our rock” and we plan to visit it again.
Behind Any Locked Door
If it has to be the bathroom in a shared house, make it snappy, but the two of you can get in a quickie with little likelihood of discovery by locking the door behind you. Wear a sundress to make it all easier (and hotter).
In the Shower
The water blocks any noise that may come from the two of you and gives you at least 20 minutes behind a locked door and drawn curtain in a place no one would think to bother you.
So, go out and have a happy Fourth, but do not consider it a sexless week. Just be creative! What are some of your sneaky sex ideas?
