I can’t believe it’s not lube!

I thought I'd slide in here with my first list. This is for substances not labeled specifically for sexual lubrication. Think butter, blood, coffee syrup, sewing machine oil. Desperate times! 🧈🍯🩸 I’ve included coconut oil mentions, even though that’s pretty standard lube. I’ve omitted spit. Recs welcome!

The Baker's Forced Breading features the use of EVOO and butter as lube. something i wish i did not know.

6

🫡

Truly our strongest soldier.

3

kitty salute

3

I completly forgot about the buter as lube lmao 😂😂😂

5

Hello - may I suggest Leave Me Behind by K.M. Moronova for the MMC's use of her (non-menstrual) blood - tbf he was solo for this... Until it dried at least... So idk if it counts...

3

Thanks, definitely counts!

2

Every word of this comment was like a slap in the face 😭😭

I can't believe I just read that😭😭

2

The dried part was the worst to imagine 💀 ack

3

Ughh that is the worst part to imagine💀😭

2

mud as lube is the actual worst idea i’ve ever heard.

12

So gritty. Those areas don’t need exfoliation.

5

I'm just thinking of every crushed bug carcass that's laying in your average pile of mud 💀

4

no!!!!! 😭😭😭

2

wdym banana

8

Well first they get a banana, and then they peel it… and I don’t want to spoil it. The book was better than I expected! @The-InSean-erator delivered this masterpiece here.

4

🤭🤭

1

all these comments and not a single person has mentioned sewing machine oil??? how is that something you have on hand but not lube? I'm almost intrigued enough to read it. Almost.

7

i fear i will take one for the team here. i have to know why sewing machine oil was grabbed over lube. they better be a sewing machine shifter

5

Now I really want a sewing machine shifter book 👀

5

my creative writing class rearing its head at the thought ill do it myself

4

I’d be first in line to read it 🧍‍♀️

1

you'd think we'd run out of unique sentences by now, and yet... (please tell me how it goes 👀)

4

@Maomi mentioned the sewing machine oil! One of the MC’s is a fashion designer, they were in his studio!Remember though, it’s coconut oil in disguise, which you should never use on a sewing machine!

3

oop, missed that! important life lessons here though, folks. no coconut oil on sewing machines ✍️

4

I’m sorry Crisco?!?? hang on honey, I can’t find the lube - lemme thumb some Crisco in there real quick

2

The crisco was used in a MM book. It’s not quite so strange in the queer world, or at least it wasn’t in the past, it had good durability for large insertables. I think commercial lube has come a long way and the compatibility of insertables varies now.

3

well damn - thank you for educating me on it ❤️

2

Uncle Zach by Bec Deckard: Aloe Vera Gel

3

You know, I bet 100% aloe vera is a decent lube. Off to ruin my search history!

3

😂😂😂

1

it dries so fast tho.

2

But straight from the plant? That stuff is viscous and gooey for ages!

It actually is, lol (and is in a lot of commercial lubes)

2

Sean, get this blasphemy out of here 😂 /lh

3

4

LMAOOO 🤣

2

Why does the vanilla coffee syrup sound like the most uncomfortable one? Sticky and gross to touch... eugh

10

It definitely had some friction issues 😬

4

so alena, i understand that the book is called Murder Twinks but i am very concerned. 🫣 why are they puréing anatomy to use as lube?

3
avatarPagebound Royalty Badge
Edited

They didn’t puree with the intention of using it for lube Reduce, reuse, recycle!

2

WHY DO SO MANY OF THESE USE OLIVE OIL WTF 😭 IS THERE SOME SORT OF "OLIVE OIL AS LUBE" HIVEMIND OF AUTHORS OUT THERE? 😭

3

I like to think that they are choosing the less evil kitchen option!

2

true, i dread to think of the fucking yeast infections if more of them used butter 😭 this list is diabolical LMAO

2

Omg that's literally what I just posted 😂

2

It was the puréed penis that really got me. 😭

Thank you so much for introducing me to this quest that I need to immediately scrub from my brain! 😂

3

RIGHT i could not believe my eyes when i saw that, i read this list on the BUS on the way home i fear i have deeply sinned LMAO 😭

3

Splutters laughing at the cardinal bus sin

3

At least you were on your way home? You didn’t have to go face the public knowing the atrocities you’d just discovered 🫣

2

okay true, it would have been considerably worse to sit in the office on my own burdened with this knowledge 😭

2

Alternate title: Literally BEGGING for a yeast infection. This is unhinged in the best way.

23

So true!! Most of the ones I added are men using the substitutions. Maybe less of a risk? Externally and internally though, so the risk is still there.

5

Yeah I realized after I said it that there’s a lot of reasons to use lube that don’t involve a vagina.

4

sewing machine oil? shit sign me up i guess

18

I think that one was actually coconut oil in disguise. Which is a crime against machines!

7

but coffee syrup would be so sticky!!!

13

But tasty?

3

maybe but think of the consequences.

6

I’d really rather not 🙂‍↔️

4

Exactly what I thought. All the other ones I could accept but not the syrup. So sticky and expensive!

1

Just imagining the potential badge if this was made into a quest 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

10

toast rubbing butter on itself

12

I mean of course it has to be that 🤞🏻

4

omg this reminds me of a girl ive met that told me the craziest story about a roommate of hers who was stealing and finishing all her extra virgin olive oil - and he didnt even cook. turns out he did sex work

10

We love a resourceful entrepreneur.

8

Not the EVOO, not in this economy! 😩

11

i know right? thats criminal

4

Right?! Water based lube would legit be cheaper 😭

6

I laughed so hard at this, because, true.

5

Nothing virgin about that olive oil amirite

19

Ayoooooooo 😂😂😂😂

7

choosing this as the list i nominate to become a quest

10

4

Sorry to destroy your hope!

8

5

MUD!! FREAKING MUD!

5

a little less talk and a lot more traction bobcat ad

4

I already finished reading it, :)

3

'Extra virgin olive oil' was used in this one The Baker's Forced Breading by Anna Wineheart

4

And I forot the title of the banana book, I need to look it up

2

Found it: Ripe & Ready by Elliot Kyle

6

I think I need to drop everything I’m currently doing to read about a banana.

5

3

very good banana bread

3

Glad you enjoyed it

2

I admit I was not prepared to take it serious, very pleasantly surprised!

1

oh no! what is lube-y about a banana? too many chunks.

3

okay. less than 100 pages? i shall read it. at some point. For Science™️.

4

Priest by Sierra Simone... anointing oil as lube.

4

Added! Thanks 🙏

2

Oh my that was something

2

qNFRsvp.gif

Coffee syrup??? 😱 Blood??? What? I'm honestly more shocked by that than I'm by butter or oil options (except sewing machine oil bc wtf)

4

There is a kink for everyone!

2

I guess so. 😅😭

2

I've come back here as I've just come across an excessive use of coconut oil in Head Above Water by CE Ricci

4

Added, thank you!

1

waiting for this book:

treadmill lube

4

Surely there are some gym bros out there DESPERATE for lube??

3

there must be. maybe sean has read one? maybe this will summon him. lol.

4

👀 I will keep it in mind

4

we’re counting on you! 🩷

2

I fear this quest is giving me a vaginal infection just by looking at it. 😱

4

Ooh, you gotta add Rainsquall by Penny Moss! They use some kind of…lard? Cooking grease? Idfk, but it’s wrapped up in a tin 😂

3

Sounds disgusting, I’m adding! Thanks!

2

and in which of these will i find the butter? asking for a friend.

3

Nailed by K.M. Neuhold I need to narrow down the other.

1

Nailed ✍️ writing this down to pass along to my uh… “friend”! 😏

2

Oh! I found it for your friend 🥸 Fall On Your Knees by J.A. Rock

2

The banana reminds me of the cursed minion novella that a few of you read minion with banana

3

shudder

3

Custard Vanilla by Delilah Demoan

3

I'd like to enthusiastically nominate Brim Over Boot by Emmy Sanders. One of the MMCs is exploring his own backdoor with saddle grease he found in his horse barn while he was looking for a carrot to use as a... Well, you guessed it 🥕

3

Thanks! I’ll be adding this to the list and my TBR!

2

Nice! Thanks 😊

1

hello again alena! i have returned to deliver Gimme A Pizza Dat Azz which only part way through has already featured pineapple juice and pizza grease as lube. 🍕🍍🩷

3

Happy to have a new addition! Pineapple juice 😬 how zesty! Were they together? I’m envisioning someone using a slice of pizza as a cock sleeve. Or should they be categorized separately? I probably need to read this for accuracy 🤓

3

I can absolutely see a slice of pizza being used as a cock sleeve 🤣

3

more like the pizza slice has a cock of its own… 👀 and i think separately? bc the pineapple is a whole nother thing…

2

So it’s pepperoni is uncut… don’t worry I’m going to read the book because I’m sure that’s also wrong. But I couldn’t resist the terrible joke.

Definitely going to forever long for pizza cock sleeve erotica now.

2

somebody somewhere must have written it.

1

Olive oil also proves useful in Never Have I Ever by CE Ricci.

2

I’m not locating this book? Is one of the Willow Dixon books?

1

Sorry it's called Never Will I Ever!

2

Bound to Two Bears by Kelex... They use... Mud.

2

bear grylls covered in mud

2

More Than Blood (Blood #1) by Brea Alepoú they use blood 🩸🧛‍♂️

2

Ah, good pull! I’ve even read this one too

2

Motor oil. Brake Me by Athena Bliss. You’re welcome 😂

2

MOTOR OIL??? I'm sorry that just screams bad idea 😭 although I'm compelled to ask if the motor oil is going in an ass or if there's some kind of car fucking happening

3

We won’t know until we get into the driver’s seat 😈

(bad joke, I’ll see myself out LOL)

3

😭😭

Brb gonna go read it and maybe regret it, will report back

3

I’m so scared to read it (like bro is literally banging his car) but also deeply intrigued. Thank you for being our sacrificial lamb 😂

2

Look ngl but the way this car is seducing bro out of his Honda Odyssey is doing things for me

3

Wait, this car is a saint. Seducing a man out of a mini van? 🥵

3

Yes!! If the rest of this continues as the first 15% has, this book is definitely going on my "okay but hear me out" list 😮‍💨

3

Okay I finished and wow the motor oil scene was something else 🥵🥵🥵🥵 honestly this book had no right to be as good as it is.

2

OMFG YOU READ IT SO FAST!

2

It was only 140 pages or so and work was slow 🫣 it was a quick read haha

2

Reading porn on company time, you’re my kinda person 🙂‍↕️😏

2

My primary job is remote and both parts of my job are dependent on incoming requests so if nobody needs me to do anything then I have time for porn 😁

2

I’m hoping the Brie isn’t going in a cooch, but i’m not sure 😂

2

Agree. But dicks and cheese 😬

2
