Lube was a revelation for me. I recommend the top-of-the-line Eros, which is made of silicone (safe for latex).
Oh, and thanks for the info, QTM - I, um, kinda discovered that problem the, um, hard way. OxyJr hates getting chafed.
Okay, just kidding about it actually being a real quote. If it had been, she would have reccomended using white vinegar, as that appears to be the multi-purpose solution for all Heloisian conundrums. But I have it on good authority that a well-lubed whacking within a rubber is well worth it. After all, it’s not a trust issue, it’s a “tired of Kleenex splotches on the dick” issue.
Wet if I’m in the shower. Dry if I’m using the method that involves applying pressure to the base of the penis with my finger while laying on my stomach. I only do this if I DON’T have an erection, go figure.
Eh, when I want to jerk off, I want to jerk off. I lube now and again as a special treat, but it is all about dry. Gimme orgasm now! Actually, I wrap him up in toilet paper to avoid spillage, too.
