Sometimes the no contact sex positions are the best in the heat

One partner lies flat on the edge of the bed while the other person stands or kneels on the floor.
Because only one person is on the mattress, there's less trapped body heat, meaning you'll stay cooler.
Plus, this particular position allows for deep penetration without full-body contact.
Shower Power
Skip the bedroom entirely and take the
Water helps regulate body temperature and keeps things slippery in all the right ways.
In my opinion it's best for standing positions like facing each other or from behind.
Just be careful with your footing… non slip mats or suction cup shower handles are your friend here.
Ice, Ice, Maybe
Temperature play isn't just kinky… it's cooling, too.
This adds a shock of sensation and cools the skin at the same time.
You can even incorporate chilled massage oils or edible lubes by keeping them in the fridge for a refreshing twist.
Fan Club
If you don't have air con, position a fan near the bed and experiment with airflow.
Try angling it so it hits your bodies directly, or place a damp towel in front for a DIY cooling effect.
Sensation-wise, the breeze heightens touch and makes everything feel just a little more sensitive as it encourages more awareness of your body as the breeze hits you.

Chill Out Aftercare
The post-sex glow can easily become a post-sex sweat in summer.
Keep a cold flannel, cooling body mist and a glass of ice water by the bed to freshen up afterwards.
It'll help you feel refreshed, reconnected and ready to go again… once you've cooled off of course.
What your sexual fantasies say about you
By
Raucous Role Play:
If your partner enjoys dressing up for fun, it shows creativity and a desire to keep things exciting. However, it might signal that he struggles with responsibility.
Multi-Partner Fantasies:
Craving variety doesn't always mean he wants to cheat. However, it could indicate deeper feelings of unfulfillment.
Power & Control:
A little dominance is normal, but if it's always about control, it may hide insecurities.
Adventure:
Men seeking thrills may push boundaries, so be sure your comfort zone is respected.
Passion:
If he's romantic, he's emotionally tuned in—though occasionally avoiding tough conversations.
Flexibility:
Openness to new experiences is great, but constant novelty-seeking could mean avoiding emotional connection.
Red Flag:
If control is his ultimate fantasy, it may signal a deeper struggle with power dynamics.
