Using egg whites as a lubricant is not recommended due to potential health risks. They can harbor bacteria, increasing the risk of infections, especially when used in sensitive areas. Additionally, egg whites can dry out quickly and may not provide adequate lubrication compared to commercially available products. It's safer to stick to lubricants specifically designed for intimate use.

If a recipe calls for "2 eggs," it means THE WHOLE EGG. If they want you to use the egg yolk only, it will say, "add the yolk of 2 eggs."

Four ounces of egg whites is approximately equivalent to 4 to 5 large egg whites, as one large egg white typically weighs about 1 ounce. Therefore, if you need 4 ounces, you would use about 4 to 5 egg whites, depending on their size.
Any bowl or utensil that is used when beating egg whites has to be perfectly clean and grease-free. When air is beaten into egg whites, the proteins of the egg white open up, which makes the whites form a semi-solid. If there are any lipids introduced into the egg whites they prevent the whites from forming a semi-solid state by surrounding the proteins of the egg whites and preventing the proteins from opening.
Egg whites that have been refrigerated for 2 weeks may still be safe to use if they have been stored properly in an airtight container and show no signs of spoilage, such as off odors or discoloration. However, for optimal quality and safety, it's best to use egg whites within 1 week of refrigeration. Always check for any signs of spoilage before using them. If in doubt, it's safer to discard them.
Using a plastic bowl for egg whites is not advisable because the proteins in egg whites can bond with the plastic, leading to potential contamination and lingering odors. Additionally, plastic bowls may not whip egg whites effectively, as they can retain grease or residues that inhibit the formation of stable peaks. For best results, it's recommended to use glass or metal bowls when preparing egg whites.
