Just to add to this: this is where that weird trope of American culture to associate lube with masturbation comes from as you obviously can’t masturbate by moving your foreskin back and forth - so you need some kind of lubrication to just rub your penis without it getting sore. It took me literal decades to understand that odd connection from American teenager comedies as I literally had no clue why they kept making jokes about hand cream.
