Just kidding, but to answer you more seriously, cornstarch can actually protect you from frictional injuries and yeast infections.
There is a clinical study that delves more into this. A lot of people assumed that cornstarch can lead to a yeast infection. The study disproves that myth. In fact, it shows that cornstarch prevents the body from having an environment conducive for Candida Albicans, which is an apathogenic yeast.[2]
The same study also shows that lubricant provides protection from friction injuries. This makes cornstarch lube very effective for safety.
Cornstarch is also used to take care of rashes. A popular health website recommends this to help people experiencing skin problems.[3]
