Breaking the Taboo: Personal Lubricants

Breaking the Taboo: Personal Lubricants

How Lubricants Can Boost Comfort, Pleasure, and Connection for Everyone

In a study conducted in 2013 by Indiana University's Center for Sexual Health, researchers unveiled a surprising revelation: lubricant and intimacy serums, often associated with certain demographics or specific sexual concerns, can enhance pleasure for everyone, making orgasm easier to achieve by 50%

And yet over a decade later, the use of lubricant is still shrouded in stigma, often linked to misconceptions about age-related issues or assumptions regarding a person's level of sexual interest or relegated to certain kinds of sex. It's time to dismantle these preconceived notions and embrace the idea that lubes and intimacy serums are valuable tools for everyone seeking enhanced pleasure and comfort during intimate moments.
