Please use Lube, sincerely a paramedic

Lube, lube, glorious lube. You can never get enough… or can you. I’ll ramble on…



Obviously, lube is amazing. I love it and keep a bottle on my nightstand every time that I decide to do the horizontal tango any penetration at all should definitely involve lube. But did you know there are more benefits than just comfort? Especially when it comes to anal penetration, and I know this is set a lot, but lube is vital. When it makes everything slippery smooth, it not only increases comfort, but also prevents damage. But how you ask? I’m happy to answer.

Essentially, anal penetration causes pleasure by the friction of a toy or other object against your lower, intestinal tract. This is great, it feels amazing. But that friction can cause damage the same way rubbing your hands together causes heat, the friction in your lower intestines can cause heat, calluses, and incredible amounts of damage to the very sensitive villi, which absorb all of the water in your excrement. Some studies even suggest that in men, it is linked to a higher rate of prostate cancer, and although correlation and causation have not been proven, nor have other studies been able to replicate the results, it is better to be safe than sorry. Your gut is also a haven for bacteria that are very sensitive, and if those bacteria are destroyed through heat, or basically rubbed off, that can lead to a vast variety of medical issues (google c-diff for what happens when your gut has no bacteria).


if you’re here, you probably already know the differences between silicone and water-based lube. Everybody has their own preference, and I recommend having a bottle of each because different circumstances require different tools. Some people might be allergic to the ingredients of one lube, while another might not make them comfortable and then, of course, there’s a whole discussion on flavored and temperature lubes. I’ll leave that for another day.


One big thing I did want to talk about is why silicon lube is bad for toys. It is common knowledge that you should not use silicon lube on silicon toys. But why? Well, the silicon in the lube can alter the structure of the silicon in the toy. This can cause a change in texture, but most importantly, it can create a surface that is much more difficult, or even impossible to sterilize. Even if you’re using the same toy only for one person, you definitely don’t want your fermented seasoning’s going back inside you. Definitely not good. In addition, there is the possibility, as shown in studies, that micro plastics and remnants of that silicon from the toy, can be left inside of you, as opposed to the silicon, which is designed to be safely discarded by your body, like silicone in lube.


Basically, be safe, be smart, use, lube, and keep it horny. Feel free to ask any questions you may have, and I’ll answer them as best I can
