Does anyone besides me hate lubes?

I'm just really annoyed by lubes and never even tried them because I dislike them so much.

Hm. If you haven't tried them I'm unsure how you can dislike them.

i can't have sex comfortably without lube. o.o; vaginally, btw.

maybe you just need to find a better type of lube. expand your choices. i'm hoping to buy a bunch of lube with all my eden points soon. i've only tried 3 types of lube, 2 of which were the same brand, one water based and one silicone.

I do not need lube usually, but sometimes it is a nice thing to add into the mix. I have had lubes that were subpar or weren't good with my sensitivities but I've found one that I love.

Seconded.

Plus, there's also a big difference when you find a *need* for it. There was a period where a switch in birth control left me high and dry for several months. No matter how turned on I was, I could not get lubricated enough for comfortable sex. Enter the need for lube. High quality lubes are amazing.

Now that I'm not having the dryness problem, well then of course I prefer sex without lube. I feel great just as is!

But really, don't knock it till you try it. And know that there's a big big difference in the quality and feel of cheap grocery store lubes and high quality lubes like some of the stuff sold on EF.

I don't get how you're sure you hate them if you haven't ever even tried one.

I don't have a huge experience with lube, but every lube I've tried left me feeling all greasy and gross afterwards. I produce a lot of natural lube with no trouble, so I only use commercial lubes for breast sex and handjobs.

I don't hate them, but most of the time, I really don't need them. I only reach for it if I'm trying something bigger than I can normally handle.

I don't like lube unless it is for anal.

Most lubes are very nice. You really should try them even just once before deciding. Get something nice like "intensity" or something not ky jelly or something plain

I prefer to use my own body but will use it in some instances. Maybe try another kind or flavor?!

I don't like the added messiness and I have no need for it, but if you couldn't get lubricated on your own then you wouldn't be complaining! I have only tried lubes casually and wasn't into it but I think I could enjoy lubes with special features like temperature and sensation. Why not?

Exactly. I don't like cheap lube (think KY). But nicer lubes feel just like what your body makes, and it feels heavenly!

I actually need lube thanks to several things, one being that it takes me quite a while to get there, and my depo shot could have a hand in things as well.

I don't quite understand how you hate lube without trying it, but if your body produces enough lubrication for all your naughty needs, I'm a bit envious.

Some lubes are awful. It's usually all about finding the right lube in the right amount.

I'd say it is safe to say that you have been using the wrong lube. I don't know what it is in System Jo's stuff, but I actually feel gross and greasy afterwards and hard to clean. But with Toy Fluid by Fun Factory, it almost feels like my own juices.

I have bought quite a few more lubes to do a comparison, but I cannot wait till "Probe" gets here!! Heard such good things about it!

How do you know you don't like lube if you haven't tried it? That makes no sense to me...

I use when I'm feeling impatient. Really, the key is to finding a good lube and sticking to it.

Lube is totally necessary for certain things (like anal play) so I'm all for it when the job calls for it. Otherwise saliva and bodily fluids are usually enough for my partner and I to get down and dirty. Some lubes definitely leave a kind of gross feel afterwards or have a bad taste, but in general they are well worth the trouble when you really need them.

The only lube I've tried that I don't care for is KY. I wouldn't say I "hate" it, there are just better lubes out there. I'm curious how you can say you hate lube when you've never tried it...

I don't hate them but I don't like most of them in general.
