For guys: recommendations for lubricant

Stop getting hung up on the circ vs the uncirc thing. I'm not arguing what someone does to a penis.
I'm asking how the pleasure is measured. You seem to think the more nerve endings one has the more pleasure you get. It that right?

 

I had to undergo a partial circumcision almost a year ago due to a cycling injury some years ago, where the scar kept splitting & re-healing, thus constantly tightening the foreskin, making it difficult to retract, so at least, unlike those that were circumcised at birth, I can speak from having experienced both sides of the fence (and personally, I would prefer to still have my foreskin).

With a fully intact foreskin, there would be no friction against the glans, as the glide motion of the foreskin would roll back & forth to prevent any direct physical contact, so no form of lubrication would be required.

Not surprisingly, though, lubrication was absolutely essential for my first post-operation masturbation sessions, as the glans was still very sensitive. To start with I used the steroid cream I had been prescribed before the surgery, as this was primarily liquid paraffin / Vaseline in a tube, but as the glans soon became desensitised, lubrication wasn't as important as it was to start with - partly because I had to started to adopt a slightly different technique, using a different grip - further down the shaft, so that the remainder of the foreskin could be drawn forward. However, the glans has now become sufficiently desensitised that I can masturbate using the original grip, so that there is physical contact with the glans without the need for lubrication - although I do occasionally opt to lube up, just for a change.

Even before I underwent the circumcision I still had to use a decent water based lube whenever I used my FleshLight to masturbate with, as the foreskin naturally retracts during an erection to allow the glans to be physically stimulated during penetration. Obviously during the real thing the vaginal fluids would usually be sufficient, but when an orifice (such as a FleshLight, or an Anus) doesn't have it's own natural lubricant, then, like it or not, an artificial one has to be used, and if anything that is oil based, such as condoms or silicone, then it has to be be water based.

 

Or, potentially, the more pain.

 

I use baby oil. Johnson's and Johnson is the best because it is cheap and comes in big bottles. Use it with your girl. Rub her boobs and have her stroke your cock and douse her and yourself in oil

 

it really doesn't matter if penis are absent of their foreskin or not. Both are very pleasurable, and I'm 100% confident of that. Why or when parents chose upon the procedure for the offspring son is none of anyones business (Roo).

 

Durex has a good range of lubes - some as a twin pack - one for him & one for her & when they combine together (the lubes) they give different effects to the genitals.

 

Quite incorrect.

You are making a statement with absolutly NO support, other than that you're "100% confident" that you're totally right.

I have provided many paragraphs, probably thousands of words, of logical support to my position.

And, if they are entirely ignorant but assured that it is right, the parents may be free of blame. Otherwise, with even a bit of thought and/or a little bit of idea that there MIGHT be more to learn, if they chop at their kids weenie, yeah, they're bad people. As are those who would encourage them.

And you are an un-apologetic "bad person", by these criteria.:2thumbsup:

Seriously, this is somebody who thinks they're responsible enough to own a firearm and that anybody arguing otherwise amounts to a travesty, claiming that it's their business what harmful cosmetic surgery they choose to do to infants in their care. Th' fuck?

 

i tried to send you a pm, but wasnt allowed

Will you hate me if I point out how obvious it is that their target market is 30yr old women?

 

i wont hate you, it is their market. thank you for phrasing it the way you did, its rather refreshing.

a lot of lubes are just lubes, they can be irritating for some people. women generally use toys that might break down (which is why women should be careful of what toys they buy, cheap is cheap for a reason) while men are better equipped to get off without toys.

for what its worth, i was 18 when i discovered this product... i was in a sex store with my mom in between deliveries. we were both impressed. by the time i am naturally lubricated im done, time for bed. its useful to have sometimes. when i was pregnant i needed it, and was very glad to have it.

target markets dont matter really. but if you want to think about it, as a woman ages they need a little help down there. its an experienced target market. its a market in need, who do buy the product. for a guy, its just like buying an overengineered product. made for a woman, who has more criteria, and good enough for a man.
they can be used for massages as well, and thats really all you are doing with your hand, right?

 

Man! Some of the connections you make. Just not stable.

You are correct that I have not researched this subject. I'm not even sure of the ratio of men with, and men without. I guess my statement is made from my experience with each, their response to touch, and their ability to precreate. Maybe they are not identical in sensitivity, but given a penis is ultimately operated by a human brain, I surmise that stimulation requirements vary widely.

ETA....I'm off topic. I have no idea the best lube.

 

I completely agree, but this is in the Masturbation forum.

I haven't yet found any inexpensive lube that works well.

I haven't tried vegetable oil, though...

 

Well, I meant no offence or that there's anything wrong with the products. I actually thought the massage/lube combo are a good idea.

But the packaging is what I was talking about.

Typical self-rightious right wing.... fucks everything up, and not only denies being wrong, but denies that different fuckups can be connected. It's like the myth of being some sort of island and pulling yourself up by your bootstraps with no outside influence.... the idea that wrong ideas are free-standing, and that JUST because you're a violent paranoid gun hoarder, should not mean that your sadistic ideas about cutting up dicks should face scrutiny because of who's ideas they are.

I don't have any info on the numbers of females circumcised or not, but I do know that some report reasonably good sex lives with reasonable sensitivity, after the procedure. Therefore, I declare that it's totally up to parents if they want to preform one :2thumpsup:

I mean, actually, I don't. But it's a position that should be seen as accompanying that position on male circumcision.

 

RooR, why you all up in Calgirls ass? She never even said she supported circumsicion or not, just that its the parents business.

If the head of my circumcised penis was any more sensitive....I'd be walking around jizzing in my pants all day. Sounds fun at first but might make conversation difficult.


On topic: I'm a dry guy myself, every once in a while ill use whatever hand lotion I have nearby for something different.

 

my hypothesis about sensitivity is not republican

 

I think you must have pissed him off in another thread.

 

Yes, I did. One was about abortion, one was about guns. But don't we ALL get pissed off in those threads? Only punks hold grudges.

 

I find most of her opinions reprehensible.

She said she supports the right of parents to do whatever they want, and that she considers both states fine. I said it's one thing if they don't know or something, but that doing the wrong thing, after being informed that it's wrong, is inexcusable.

So yeah, she generally pisses me off. Opinions, attitudes, approaches, the whole shebang.

If I had to sum it up, it's the general air of wanting uncompromised freedom, but being unable to accept or assign the uncompromised responsibility that must accompany it.

 

Such a child.

If I do use lube it's usually some sort of massage oil we have in the night stand

 

As far as lube goes (getting back to the topic) (and speaking as someone who was circumcised as a baby - something that's never particularly bothered me, although if I'd had a choice I'd rather it hadn't been done) - as long as you're talking about masturbation and aren't worried about condoms breaking - then olive oil or coconut oil are great. They give just enough friction to feel fantastic, and don't dry out over a long session - and they are totally 'natural' products. (Also great for sex, if you're with someone where you don't need to use condoms.)
