gs1961 asked:
Does anyone know how safe vegetable oils and tree-nut oils are as sex lubes? I know that petroleum-based oil lubes: 1) Can not be used on rubber or Cyberskin toys, 2) Can be irritating to the vagina, 3) Stain, 4) Render condoms, dams, diaphragms, and cervical caps useless. Some tree-nut oils are sold as massage oils so I imagine someone has done a study on the safety of the use of vegetable and tree-nut oils during sex. Anyone heard of a good study in this area? Anyone have any personal experience using a vegetable or tree-nut oil? Knowing that vegetable and tree-nut oils were safe would give people a “green” option to use during their sexual play.

i would stick to ky and stuff like that.
as far as going “green,” you probably wouldn’t use that much “non-green” lube to make it a big deal.

This isn’t safe, pure and simple.
Under no circumstance should you put ANYTHING into the vagina that isn’t specifically for that purpose. Veggie oil is not jus irratating to this region it could through the pH balance out of wack or cause a reaction.
If you’re looking for a “green” option buy a water based lube. Water has been on the earth even longer than veggie and tree nut oils.

This may be TMI, but when I was younger I used olive oil with a cucumber once or twice and nothing bad ever happened.
