Lube It or Lose It: Friction Myths Busted

We’ve all heard the myths.
“Lube is only for people who can’t get aroused.”
“Friction is sexy—it means things are working.”
“Only certain types of intimacy need lube.”
🚫 Wrong, wrong, and wrong.
It’s time to bust these friction myths once and for all.
Because the truth? Friction isn’t your friend. And lube isn’t a luxury—it’s a game-changer for comfort, pleasure, and even your health.
Myth #1: Friction = More Pleasure
Actually, friction can create micro-tears and irritation—especially in delicate areas. These tiny injuries can lead to discomfort, reduced sensation, and even a higher risk of infections.
Fact: Adding lube makes everything feel smoother, which means you can enjoy more pleasure without the burn.

Myth #2: Lube Means Something’s Wrong
Nope. Your body’s natural lubrication levels fluctuate all the time—because of stress, hydration, hormones, and dozens of other factors.
Fact: Everyone can benefit from lube, no matter their age or arousal level. Think of it like conditioner for your hair—it makes a good thing even better.
Myth #3: All Lubes Are the Same
Not true. Different lubes are designed for different types of play:
- Water-based: Versatile, easy to clean, and toy-friendly.
- Silicone-based: Longer-lasting and perfect for shower play or marathon sessions.
Happy Lube makes both, so you can pick what fits your vibe (or mix it up).
Myth #4: You Only Need Lube for One Type of Intimacy
Nope again. Lube can make every intimate experience better—solo, partnered, frontdoor, backdoor, with toys, without toys.
Fact: Less friction = more fun. Period.
Why Lube Should Be a Non-Negotiable
Lube keeps your skin safe, your toys in good shape, and your pleasure levels high. It’s a tiny change that makes a massive difference.
So next time someone says, “we don’t need lube,” tell them:
Lube it or lose it.
