A lot of my friends use lube and I have never used it? I guess I don't need it is this weird? Should I use it?
Answer:
Do I need it?
Your body as part of the sexual response cycle creates it's own lubricants. During arousal the vaginal walls secrete fluids to lubricate the vagina decrease friction during penetration. Some women create enough lubricant and some women don't. It doesn't mean there is anything wrong with you. Some people just like lube to enhance pleasure with better slipping and sliding.
What kind should i use:
There are three different kinds of lubricats water-based, silicone-based and oil-baed. If you use condoms ALWAYS use a water based lubricant. Each of these has their advantages and disadvantages,however water-based lubes are by far the most popular. Some popular ones in the market are: KY jelly, Astroglide, Maximus and Wet.
What is a no no?
Never use oil based lubricants with condoms. Never use petroleum jelly (li.e. Vaseline), baby oil, hand or body lotions, cooking oils (i.e. Pam), etc... Within seconds the oil breaks down the latex and will cause the condom to break. So unless you are looking for an STI or to get pregnant stay away from the oils.
You can get most of the popular lubricants like KY at your drugstore or grocery store but if you are looking for a better selection of slippery merchandise try a sex toy store or "adult store." As always have fun and happy lubing.
