Sex and the Open Container

I believe they already exist, in most if not all of the major brands. Google reveals.

There are no new ideas. You going to finish those fries?

I imagine that the OP was imagining something like this scenario…

Guy removes lid from jar of Vasoline, etc., scoops out a quantity of said product, applies product to intended orifice, scoops out a bit more of said product for good measure…repeat as necessary.

Sure, I could understand a bit of squeamishness here…at least in this day and age of freaky germs and such.

Actually, I was thinking Astroglide. It’s in a squeeze bottle with a spout thingy. GF applied it to herself, and to me over a condom. I’m not sure there’s really a huge risk of transmission of any infectious agents, but wondered if a) I was wrong about that; b) there was a perception that there was a risk of transmission; or c) women would be put off on some level by a previously opened container.

Thanks everyone for their input. Eva Luna: 12-pack or jumbo quality assortment? :smiley:

Well, I’d never start off a relationship knowing that there was a built-in ending date, so…ummm, draw whatever conclusions you will.

All relationships have a built-in expiration date, we just don’t know what it is.

**Otto, ** how depressing! Well, I suppose technically you’re correct; we’ll all die someday.

What I really meant is that I’ve never had a one-night stand, and never knowingly had a mindless fling. Some people may be able to handle the emotional fallout of starting something which they know will be casual and/or short-term, but I’m not one of them. SOmetimes I wish I were, but alas, sex and emotion are pretty much inseparable for me.

All relationships end. Either you split up or one of you dies.

Just to point out that Vaseline is not suitable for use as a lube in conjunction with condoms, diaphragms etc. It perishes the rubber … :rolleyes:

I second this. I’ve never needed lube, on the first or any other times.

Lizard, did you miss Otto’s and my posts? Sometimes it doesn’t matter what your partner is doing. I have hormonal problems. I don’t “make” lube. It just doesn’t happen, no matter how aroused I am. It’s not just for anal sex or for people who don’ tknow what the hell they’re doing, and from discussing this with my doctor there are a lot of women who have the same problem.

lube?

:confused:

I picture Chevy Chase in Caddyshack trying to put the cap back on an open bottle (that was topped of by another open bottle) of Perrier.

Is this the lube picture you were trying to avoid??

“Oh, there is a ring of lube around the base of my pecker, I’ll scape it off and put it back in the jar! Waste not, want not!”

A great new slogar…" Lube, It’s Not Just for Anal Anymore!"

It was never just for anal. They don’t even market most lubes as being for anal sex. Look at a bottle, someday.

When you make a comment like this… you sound like you don’t know what you are talking about.

Hmm, I guess a used silicone penis sheath would be out of the question, then…

Is this a good time to bring up the huge bottle marked “ANAL LUBE- TESTER” that I saw at Adam and Eve? I was like “what, test it right her- in the aisle??”

Anyway- yeah. Open containers- kinda nasty, IMHO. Single serving only, no matter what the device, liquid, or toy. ::shiver::

No, I didn’t see your post, but I’ve never heard vaginal dryness described as a problem that affects a “lot” of women. Some, certainly. But I’ve never been with one of those women, and have never needed lube. I imagine it affecting a “lot” of women is relative.

I’ve seen commercials on tv for products that alleviate vaginal dryness. I would assume that means it affects quite a few women.

I concur.
