What People Are Really Doing When They 'Freshen Up' In The Bathroom Before Sex

The bathroom.

A lot of life preparation happens in the bathroom.

It's a room that readies you for anything.

Even sex.

That can be an awkward place to run to before sexytime.

But sometimes it is necessary.

Let's get ready...


Redditor Maggie_cat wanted to hear about what people are actually doing in the bathroom pregame life's spicier moments.

So they asked:

"People who go into the bathroom to 'freshen up' before sex—what are you guys actually doing in there?"

We all take that little extra time to spiffy up before sexy time.

I meditate that it goes well. That's me.

Trump Sparks Concern After Repeatedly Confusing Alaska With Russia Ahead Of Putin Meeting

President Donald Trump turned heads on Monday after he repeatedly claimed he's going to "Russia" on Friday—very openly confusing the country with the state of Alaska, the actual location where he plans to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin for a highly anticipated summit.

Trump made the mix-up during a press conference about crime in Washington, D.C., where he has already moved to federalize the police and deploy the National Guard, citing inflated crime statistics that compared D.C. to Baghdad and Brasilia.

JB Pritzker Explains Exactly Why Trump Is Pushing His GOP Allies To Redistrict—And He's Spot On

MSNBC Fact-Checks Trump In Real Time As He Blatantly Lies About Crime Rates In DC

President Donald Trump is facing criticism after he was fact-checked by MSNBC in real time as he lied about crime statistics while announcing his decision to federalize police in Washington, D.C., and deploy the National Guard in an effort to fight crime.

Trump's announcement is a significant escalation of his previous attacks on the nation's capital, which he has repeatedly referred to as "crime-infested." He claimed in his remarks to the press that D.C. is “one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the world,” a claim at odds with Justice Department data showing that the city’s crime rate hit a 30-year low last year.
