So that condom is no big deal, right?  Safe sex is just a matter of being selective?  If you agree with either of those ideas, you really should read on.  And if you’re a fan of safe sex, we have some facts you might want to know as well.

When an airline pilot is preparing for takeoff, he goes through a rigorous checklist of his aircraft’s mechanics and functions.  Your odds of being in a fatal crash on the top 25 safe Airlines in the world is 1 in 13.57 million (Source).  Would you be surprised to discover that unprotected sex gives a woman 1 in 2 odds of catching Gonorrhea and 4 in 10 odds of catching Chlamydia (Source)?  That’s in just one unprotected encounter!

In 2007, slightly over 1 in 1,000 people contracted Gonorrhea, and that’s just the reported cases (Source).  So 1 in 13.57 MILLION people are involved in a plane crash with fatalities on highly safe airlines, 1 in 1,000 people contract Gonorrhea.  I think maybe it’s time we contemplate a safe sex checklist.  Those pilots may be on to something.

The right lubricant is critical to safety

So here is a checklist we suggest you try out to improve your sexual health by engaging in safe sex and play.

First, if you are with a partner, do you have your condoms?  Think about it, if one unprotected encounter exposes you to a 50/50 chance of catching a nasty infection, each subsequent encounter almost guarantees that you’ll catch something that you’d really rather not have to treat.  And if you’re among the hearty sorts who doesn’t fear disease, perhaps you should have a look at the new resistant strains.

Unless you are in a long term, completely monogamous relationship with a partner who is disease free, you shouldn’t ever be without a condom when you’re ready for fun.  For everyone else, make sure the condom is number one on your safe sex checklist.

Second, if you plan to use lubrication (and if you’re planning on anal play, plan to use lubricant), make sure your lubricant is compatible with the condom or toy you’re using.  I was curious about how fast a latex condom would deteriorate with a silicone lubricant, so I ran a test using a condom on a rubber dildo.  I stretched a condom over, and applied silicone lubricant by hand.  The condom began to disintegrate on contact.

When I say disintegrate, I mean that in the literal sense of the word.  The condom was melting into goo in front of my eyes.  The dildo wasn’t doing well either.  Always use water based lubricants with latex condoms.  As you can see, checklist point two is critical to the safety of checklist point one.

The rest of our checklist relates specifically to toys.

Third, when using a sex toy like a dildo, make sure that you get into the habit of washing it before and after use.  A clean sex toy prevents the spread of infections.  Also, some materials can pick up small debris, which can lead to uncomfortable, unsanitary play.  A simple wash eliminates this problem.

Fourth, inspect your toy for any damage.  A chip on a glass toy can lead to painful issues.  A damaged retrieval mechanism on an anal toy can be dangerous as well.  If your toy has wiring (like a vibrator with a wired remote), make sure the wiring is not damaged.  Never play with a damaged sex toy.  The risk isn’t worth the sensation.

Fifth, make sure you intend to use your toy in the way it is intended to be used.  This is a simple rule that can save you from potentially dangerous play.  If you aren’t sure about your toy’s uses, contact us with our Ask an Expert button in the top right corner of this blog.

Finally, safe sex requires that you know your body.  Know your allergies and select toys that won’t affect them.  Silicone dildos and vibrators are great hypoallergenic choices for play.  Make sure the lubricant you select is body safe for you.  Know what size of dildo you can safely use.  Body safe toys are critical to safety, and for that matter, fun!

This is just a rudimentary checklist.  You may have even more items you want to add to yours.  But if you have a safety checklist, and you follow it well in advance of your next play time, when it’s time to have fun, you can focus on the whole point of adult play – HAVING FUN!  So take the time to make sure you’re prepared, then go out and have fun!

And follow your checklist.

Hands down, this is the best lube that I have ever used.  I felt like I should get that on the record first, because it only gets better and I figured that those of you who are going to read on should be forewarned that you are about to get the scoop on the best.  Gun Oil H2O as a name conjures up a memory of the movie Full Metal Jacket, where Marine recruits are marching around singing “This is my rifle, this is my gun.”

But don’t let the name fool you, this is a seriously good product that has no faults that I can find.

My first, and most important, rule regarding lubricant is that it doesn’t matter how good it is, if it ruins the sheets, mattress, carpet, or whatever else, it isn’t a viable option.  I’ve had lubes absolutely wreck my sheets before, and that makes them worthless.  If one has to buy new sheets for each lube usage, the lube becomes cost prohibitive.  Gun Oil doesn’t leave a hideous mess on the sheets, and when it does come into contact with the sheets it cleans up easily.  So it passes the first test.

But it gets better.  This lube feels great on contact and is as effective as even silicone lube.  I’m not claiming that it lasts as long as silicone lubricant, but I will say that it lasted long enough not to require multiple applications.  I’ve never found another water based lube that doesn’t require multiple applications.

Being able to concentrate on the fun, without having to reach for the lube is a huge plus mark.  And going back to the feeling, imagine something silky smooth applied to your skin and getting smoother with friction.  That’s what Gun Oil does.

It is perfectly safe for use with a condom and any toy type.  That versatility adds another notch for this gun.  You can use the Gun Oil H2O on your favorite silicone toy and not worry about damage.  And knowing that your condom is safe is a pretty big deal too.  A bigger deal yet is knowing that you won’t find parabens or other unhealthy ingredients in your lube, and Gun Oil doesn’t contain the bad stuff.

It doesn’t present any strong smells either.  Some lubes have that aroma that can kill the moment.  Gun oil doesn’t.  And finally, application is a breeze.  It has enough consistency that you won’t waste much as you apply it.  If you pinch pennies, you’d be happy to know that Ebeneezer Scrooge would give Gun Oil two thumbs up.

As you may know, working in the sex toy business, I get to see many products that are on the market, and try more than a few.  I’ve tried many lubricants.  Like I said at the beginning, Gun Oil H2O is the best, hands down.
