'''Lubricant''' is a term used for a substance which, by removing friction, makes it easier to slide one thing against another. This has many implications; one example would be using a substance like vitamin oil on stretched lobes to make the insertion of jewelry into a piercing easier and more comfortable.
'''Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus''' is an American circus company billed as ''The Greatest Show on Earth''.  


Lubrication is also used between [[Needle|needles]] and [[Skin|skin]] during [[Tattoo|tattooing]] and [[Piercing|piercing]].
The company was started in [[1919]] when the circus created by [[James Anthony Bailey]] and [[P. T. Barnum]] was merged with the Ringling Brothers Circus. The Ringling brothers purchased the Barnum & Bailey Circus in [[1907]], but ran the circuses separately until they were finally merged in 1919. In [[1957]] John Ringling North changed the circus from using their own portable tents to using venues, such as sports stadiums that had the seating already in place. In [[1967]] Irvin Feld bought the circus, but in [[1971]] he sold it to Mattel. He bought it back in [[1982]].


Another example would be the use of a water-based lubricant on a sexual barrier such as a [[Condom|condom]] to make penetration easier during sexual activity. Both the male and female body produce their own lubricating substances, semen for males and vaginal discharge for females.
'''Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Clown College''' (originally located in Venice, Florida, then relocated to Baraboo, Wisconsin and finally Sarasota, Florida) trained around 1,400 clowns in the ''Ringling style'' from 1968 to 1997.


Some oil-based lubricants react badly with [[Latex|latex]], breaking it down so that it tears.  Oil-based lubricants should never be used with rubber [[Gloves|gloves]] or condoms!
