The Lube Thread

Or, if you prefer, the LOOOBE thread!

Some comments in the ongoing Let's Talk About Sex Threads (1) physical questions; 2) communication issues) indicate that a separate thread on lube information and preferences could be useful.

There are lots of potential issues to consider when choosing a lubricant--is silicone OK for my needs? Oil-based? (NOT for latex condom-use!) What about glycerine? This is actually a complicated topic, all tittering aside.

What's your favorite lube and why, Shakers? Some folks need lubricant on a daily basis just to be comfortable; others use it for sex, solo or otherwise. Some may simply have never thought of adding it to their routines.

Discuss.
