whats lube?

Answer 1

Lubrication. I'd assume that the people mentioning it are talking about the kind used during sex to prevent friction (which can cause a lot of pain).

Answer 2

Lube is slang for lubricant.

Lubricant is a substance used to lessen friction between moving parts.

As to what type of lubes there are, oil and grease are the most common.

As for anything of a sexual orientation. Gels, butter, cooking oil or anything that's not harmful to your genitalia.

Don't even try using it until after your 18 and ready to get married.

Peace.

Answer 3

To reduce friction in the parts of a machine by applying oil, grease, gel, etc. In the instance subject, the medicated lubes for vaginal parts are to be used during the intercourse, for smooth entering of penis into vagina, since, generally every vagina has its normal body lubes are secreting to entering the penis into them. Some of them are not having this type of normal type and they are using the medicated.

Answer 4

Lubricants are an essential part of modern machinery. Everything from computer hard disk drives to the Airbus A380 requires lubrication of its moving parts.

A lubricant (colloquially, lube, although this may also refer to personal lubricants) is a substance (usually a liquid) introduced between two moving surfaces to reduce the friction and wear between them. A lubricant provides a protective film which allows for two touching surfaces to be separated, thus lessening the friction between them.

Typically lubricants contain 90% base oil (most often petroleum fractions, called mineral oils) and less than 10% additives. Vegetable oils or synthetic liquids such as hydrogenated polyolefins, esters, silicone, fluorocarbons and many others are sometimes used as base oils. Additives deliver reduced friction and wear, increased viscosity, resistance to corrosion and oxidation, aging or contamination, etc.

Non-liquid lubricants include grease, powders (dry graphite, PTFE, Molybdenum disulfide, etc.), teflon tape used in plumbing, air cushion and others. Another approach to reducing friction and wear is to use bearings such as ball bearings, roller bearings or air bearings or to use sound, in the case of acoustic lubrication.

Lubricants are also added to some fuels. Sulfur impurities in fuels also provide some lubrication properties, which has to be taken in account when switching to a low-sulfur diesel; biodiesel is a popular diesel fuel additive providing additional lubricity.

In addition to automotive and industrial applications, lubricants are used for many other purposes, including K-Y Jelly, often used as a sexual lubricant, bio-medical applications (e.g. lubricants for artificial joints) and others.

Answer 5

it's short for lubricant........
in slang-----A substance used to make the insertion of one object into another smoother. It generally refers to anal sex, but not always, as some regular intercourse may require lube as well

Liquid lubricants may be characterized in many different ways. One of the most common ways is by the type of base oil used. Following are the most common types.

* Water
* Mineral oils
* Vegetable (natural oil)
* Synthetic oils
* Others

Note that although generally lubricants are based on one type of base oil or another it is quite possible to use mixtures of the base oils to meet performance requirements.
[edit]

Water

Water can be used on its own or as a major component in combination with one of the other base oils.
[edit]

Mineral oil

This term is used to encompass lubricating base oil derived from crude oil. API designates several types of lubricant base oil identified as:

* Group I - Saturates < 90% and/or Sulphur >0.03% and Viscosity Index > 80 to <120
* Group II – Saturates >= 90% and Sulphur <0.03% and Viscosity Index >= 80 to <=120
* Group III – Saturates >= 90% Sulphur <0.03% and Viscosity Index >= 120

The lubricant industry commonly extends this group terminology to include:

* Group I+ with a Viscosity Index of 100 -105
* Group II+ with a Viscosity Index of 110 - 120
* Group III+ with a Viscosity Index of >= 140
* Group IV – Poly alpha olefins (PAO)
* Group V – All others not included above

Answer 7

well theres alot of things you could consider lube.....i guess first you need to determine what it is that you need to give a good lubing too.......theres crude lube.....the old tube lube....boob lube.....lucy lube....juicy lube.....theres just million and 1 types darling.

Answer 8

well if you are talking about what i think you are then it is water based liquid used to masterbate/insert the penis(used to make it go in smoother)/or sergical equipment.Really you should use it for sex

Answer 9

It is used for sexual acts, both vaginally and anally. Makes penetration easier.

Answer 10

It something you have done to your car so things move easier
