Are Lubricants a Part of Your Lovemaking?
AdamAndEve.com, America’s leading source for adult products, says it is curious about your lovemaking habits.
This month, the company asked over 1,000 adults how many incorporated lubricants into their lovemaking. And what they found may surprise you.
While most men and women (43%) said they never used lubricants, a healthy 39% of both men and women said lubricants were sometimes a part of their bedroom activities.

Age was not a huge factor either. Respondents ranged from age 18-70+, and the most frequent imbibers of lube were in the 21-39 age range.

We all know that a good lubricant can enhance the sensation for both partners. But I would like to see that number go up for the 40+ crowd as well.”
