Does needing lube mean theres anything wrong? Join Reid Mihalko from and Cathy Vartuli from as they share.
Cathy: We had someone write to us about needing lube for sex. She had thought originally because she needed lube, her partner thought that that meant she wasnt turned on. What do you think about that Reid?
Reid: I have lots of thoughts about this. Im Reid Mihalko from
Cathy: Im Cathy Vartuli from
Reid: Lube. Lube, lube, lube, lube, lube, lube, lube, lube. Lubes a good thing, dont mean anything, if you need lube, if you dont need lube. All of us at some point in our lives, will need more lube. It doesnt mean anything. Sometimes, youre just super hot and super juicy, sometimes youre not.
Cathy: I think it depend on the part of the cycle youre in. If you had enough to sleep or drink first thing .
Reid: If youre pre-menopausal or not menopausal or just your body just doesnt get super . You dont get super moist. Then the whole anal sex thing, like your butt doesnt self lubricate so it needs lube. The big things to know about lube, lube almost always creates more sensation than it takes away. Use proper lube, Im not talking about 40W motor oil or something like that, which technically is a form of lubrication, just not usually for vulvas and penises, or butts.
Cathy: Yes.
Reid: Water-based lubes, silicone-based lube, things like coconut oil can be really great too.
Cathy: Dont use coconut oil with condoms.
Reid: Yeah, its not condom safe. The idea of creating less drag, skin-to-skin drag and having things be more slippery, hence lubrication, for my physicists out there, your decreasingly coefficient of meu. Thats right, I said that.
Cathy: Yeah, you did.
Reid: The idea of that, you using lube creates the opportunity for your nerve endings to feel more sensation and less pain by having skin kind of tugging and dragging. Thats why you want to use lube. Lube is a good thing?
Cathy: Yes, and it doesnt mean anything. I know that I personally been really turned on and not been super wet and theres been other times when I didnt physically feel that turned on and I was really wet. It doesnt necessarily correlate so .
Reid: If you want to create more pleasure and youre not ruining somebodys fancy $5,000 dress or pants that need to be dry cleaned that day, use lube. Its always a good bet. Thats all I have to say.
Cathy: Wed love to know what you think, leave your comments below.
