A twitter friend just asked if lubes have expiration dates and I think it really needs a more than 140 character answer.. so here it is:
The short answer is some do and most don’t.
For water-based lubes, most can last at least a year or more. To keep your lube as fresh as possible, we recommend keeping it in the bottle [...]
Celebrate the Fist!
Today is International Fisting Day.. a holiday/call to action started by porn revolutionaries Jiz Lee and Courtney Trouble.
Frustrated the fact that the act of fisting is censored in porn, Lee & Trouble started this day of action to celebrate a sex act that is safely enjoyed by tons of people, yet cut out of porn [...]
Remember that old summer game Slip ‘N Slide? Oh man was that a good time. A long latex slide that you unfurled on your buddy’s lawn and then made wet and slippery with the attached sprinklers? What’s not to love about that? Now picture playing on a Slip ‘N Slide but leaving the sprinklers off. [...]

In another example of science telling us things we’ve always known, lube has now been proven to enhance pleasure during sex. Sexual health researchers at Indiana University have released a study on the use of water and silicone based lubricants by women during masturbation, anal, and vaginal sex. The results confirm what we’ve been preaching [...]
While leafing through a trade magazine today, there was a big ad from a major mainstream sex toy manufacturer listing their top 20 best sellers in eight different categories. I wasn’t surprised by most of the top-sellers, but I was so SAD when I saw that Throat-Numbing Spray and Ass-Numbing Cream were the top TWO [...]
You may have seen the alarming articles in the media over the past couple of weeks, proclaiming that Science has discovered that using lube during anal sex is a non-refundable one-way ticket to an STI. As is often the way with media outlets, genuinely useful (though inconclusive) research gets distilled down into quick and sensationalist [...]
