Poppers Are Gross!?

I want to vomit when I smell Poppers. I especially think about how they're linked to Kaposi sarcoma! Do you like them?

I threw up on someone the first time I encountered these. I was riding his dick high above West End Avenue in nearly-complete darkness one night in the 1970s, when this glass thing cracked. I had no idea what that smell was. I wasn't sure I wasn't going to die. And then I threw up all over this guy.

I think the Karposi Sarcoma link was dispelled decades ago. Besides, as regulated as things are these days if there was any real link to it or any other disease I seriously doubt the government would allow the product to be sold.

So many guys I slutted with in the late 90s-2000s would pull out that dreaded vial, and it always killed the mood for me. The smell is noxious and seeing someone plug one nostril and hearing them sniff through the other...such a total turnoff. I never got it. The more I reflect on all the casual encounters I had when I was younger, the more I realize most of them made me feel terrible about myself and generally uncomfortable. I’m glad that addiction is behind me.

I’m surprised at the anti-popper brigade. poppers are almost specifically designed for gay sex. Relaxes anal sphincter, increases penile sensitivity and gives a rush. Understand the smell-sensitive snowflakes may not like, but there is a logical reason they are used. I think the porn obsessed forget that real sex is not clean and sanitized fantasy but real and sometime dirty reality.

R20, they have a very chemical smell to them. Hard to describe, but if you’ve ever been in, say a freshly sterilized medical room, you get a waft of chemical smell. Kind of like that.
I don’t care for them but only because I was offered a hit once and since I’d heard of the effects, I figured I’d try a whiff. Did nothing for me whatsoever. Don’t mind if someone else does them though.

Back in the 70's, before the bottle variety was colloquially referred to as poppers (which were/are actually a prescription heart medication) they were called "jock aroma" because they smelled like a sweaty jockstrap. But that was the old chemical makeup which was eventually made illegal to be sold over the counter. I have no idea what these new ones smell like.

I would not call them gross but I have never used any, and do not want to.
A guy I used to watch jerk off on webcam would use them and told me how to him they are basically like when he would sniff glue or solvents except that there's a high and you get horny, and it apparently lasts a bit longer than the solvents did. Again, this is not something I have experience with.
KS happened because people were either not on medications for HIV/AIDS, or the medication they were on which was AZT at the time did not work nearly as well as other meds that were later developed did.
R26, yes I have heard from eldergay and elderbi friends about how people did this in the 70s and 80s. A friend of mine tried it a few times during the early 80s and said how it was not his thing and just stuck to drinking alcohol while at bars and dance clubs.

I don’t do anonymous sex in the back of adult book stores. I don’t do glory holes in rest-stop men’s rooms. I have standards.

R38, you must be intentionally clueless. Before I block you to see what other trolling you're up to, let's explain a few things.
There's no relationship between poppers and "gay for pay" or gay shame. In fact, I'd say it's quite the opposite.
People have been enjoying a buzz forever, from things like alcohol, cannabis, opiates, other drugs, and inhalants like nitrous oxide, ethyl chloride, poppers and others.
People frequently like to pile on their preferred enjoyments; thus, they have sex while drinking alcohol, smoking MJ, or doing poppers, sometimes - gasp - all at the same time. Similar to the way a fattie likes a sundae with hot fudge AND caramel sauce AND chopped nuts AND brownie chunks AND whipped cream. It's better than a single scoop of vanilla.
The point is simple. These things increase pleasure. Such behavior is such common human nature in fact that I'm suspicious of those who rail against those who enjoy pleasure. My experience with the gay maiden aunts is that they are engaging in a sort of quasi-religious moral dealmaking, wherein they think that because they have a death grip on self-control and a distaste for pleasure, that they in turn deserve to be rewarded with higher status and material rewards and the right to denigrate others. In other words, they tend to be moralizing, controlling, status conscious and materialistic.
What's funny about this is that most wealthy high-status people I've known are the most enamored of substances and thrills of all kinds.
You haven't lived until getting head while doing bong hits and your trick sets the poppers bottle on fire accidentally with his joint.

The Kaposi sarcoma is an early AIDS-era myth.
| by Anonymous | reply 52 | June 27, 2018 11:23 PM |
Kaposi's Sarcoma is caused by Human Herpesvirus 8.
Many people are infected with that virus — just like herpes I and II — but a normal immune system keeps it in check.
When your immune system is depleted enough, KS can surface.
Animal studies throughout the years have shown that poppers reduce immune system functioning — inhibiting disease-fighting helper cells — for several days after they're used. But that isn't conclusive in humans.

Because poppers expand blood vessels in the ass and dick, they provide more surface area for HIV to penetrate, theoretically increasing the risk for contracting it.

Popular in gay clubs in the 90s and 00s, dance floors and dark rooms, where it smelled badly. I’ve always been a bit of Mary and didn’t try it back then. I had read it could have serious effects on health. Back then I got endless hard ons by entering gay bar or club. Years later I still do, always hard on. I didn’t need anything extra. Maybe it affected somehow, because it was often use in a tiny rooms with no air condition. It made guys, who used it, wild.

In reality, poppers are proven to temporarily impair immune response. In theory, if you've been exposed to HIV (or HPV, et al), and use poppers, whatever infections your body is fighting are more likely to take hold.

Everyone knows AIDS was developed by the white race to get revenge on Yakub, the black scientist who invented the white race as a less perfect version of the black race. Poppers were developed by Big Pharma and they are designed to encourage transvestism and chronic viral infections, and thus reap huge profits for Big Pharma. Everybody knows this. Also you can learn to easily spot the weak spine popper sniffers in any gay bar or club. Just like AIDS you can see it on the face. Poppers leads to meth and heroine addiction and all the fumes are a contributor to the honey bee decline in recent decades. Monsanto and Silicon Valley have a role as they are developing drone bees.

Eldergay and Elderbi friends of mine said how men who did this in the 1970s and 1980s did not survive, and didn't just die from HIV/AIDS but got types of Hepatitis as well and died from it.

I’ve never used them and never will. I hate the smell. I tolerate them, within reason, with a bottom who I’m topping. I get that it makes them more “accommodating.” But even then, I speak up when they’re taking so many hits that the smell takes over the room. And even though I love kissing, don’t try to kiss me after huffing poppers!
They’re generally a dick wilter for me, so some of these brown bottle Betties end up having to make a choice between me and their little friend. I’m also much less understanding when someone giving me head is pausing to take hits of that gross stuff. Then it’s just about their hedonism. I’ve got nothing against maximizing your pleasure, but it’s not just about you.
Let me add that my willingness to put up with poppers diminished big time after some idiot, facing front while riding my dick, actually managed to splash some poppers liquid into one of my eyes! How? He was shaking the open bottle (for what purpose I don’t know, but this is common), using a thumb to cover the opening, but apparently not completely. As you can imagine, this burned my eye. It wasn’t terrible, especially after splashing water into my eye. But the damage was visible to an optometrist who examined my eyes three weeks later! He asked me if I had experienced any recent eye trauma.

They shut off pain receptors in the brain for a minute or so. That makes them extremely useful to bottoms when first getting adjusted to a dick.
They're extremely helpful for getting bottoms to open up -- it's not about "the next level" or a high. It's managing pain and relaxing.

I seem to remember from that research on EYE dangers that the culprits are Isopropyl and Isobutyl, which should be avoided.
PENTYLnitrite is an option on the top of the line poppers in each brand, and seems to be the one I prefer with no headaches and also producing the dreamy hot feeling, not just a messy "wah?" which takes me out of the sex, not into it.

Here is a link to a discussion of the eye research
"There was immediately evidence that the replacement of isobutyl nitrate might be to blame: some men who had used poppers regularly for decades reported sudden symptoms after changing brands. Isopropyl nitrite seemed to be the common element, and the researchers believe it somehow damages the fovea, a small pit of tightly packed cones in the retina that's mostly responsible for central vision."
So the molecule to avoid is Isopropyl nitrite.
Best to read ingredients carefully!

Surprised at the hatred. Hubby and I only do them a few times a year because they certainly arent health food. But when we do, holy shit! It’s like turning up the knob to a 100. Feels like you’re literally inside each other’s skin, and then the orgasms feel like cumming buckets.

In case you’re not joking, R112, no, it won’t have any affect on him if YOU use them.
HOWEVER, if he’s on Viagra, it can and will have extremely serious affects (possibly death) if HE uses them. There have been numerous warnings about combining poppers and ED drugs.

How could it kill him if you use them? Many on Viagra use poppers as well (not recommended) and are fine. If you use them, do so sparingly.

I had no idea poppers were so problematic. I only used once, in the mid 90s. The guy I was with said that he had purchased that tiny bottle in a sex shop in London, which made me think it was safe and legal. Not that I cared, I was very young and horny and would have done anything.
It was okay, not spectacular. Never had the impulse to try again.

Just in case you’re not joking, R112, YOU doing poppers will have no affect on him. Much like you downing a six pack before sex will not make him drunk.
HOWEVER, he should not take them if he’s taking Viagra. It’s beyond not recommended, it’s downright dangerous and could be deadly. Both ED meds and poppers lower blood pressure, so the pressure could get so low as to cause fainting, a stroke or even a heart attack.

Good poppers make you feel like you and your partner are melting into one another. Good poppers haven't been around for a while, though.
I didn't know about them until an eldergay (boss at the time) gave me a bottle of Pig Sweat when I mentioned that my bf was too big. The first time we tried them, we laughed our heads off and gave up on sex. After that, it was a nice now-and-then experience. If you wait and sniff them right before you come, it's like a tidal wave through your body. It only lasts a few seconds to a minute. For me, it was better as a shared experience.
If you are into the person you're with, it is a pretty amazing experience to share, melting into one another for a couple of minutes. Using them felt a little sleazy, but we weren't particularly sleazy individuals, so it just seemed piggy in the good way.
The smell is bad, like mildew + permanent markers.
Bad poppers are all that have been available for quite a few years. No thanks. No melting, just a weird feeling, limp dick, and a headache. Those do feel sleazy.

I have never used them, do not ever want to, but a bottom friend of mine told me how he tried them a few times in the 1980s and he prefers sex without them.

Of course I don't know anyone who uses them daily or weekly the way the one study found people who do, but I'm sure they are out there. The people I know who use them said how they are way too expensive to use daily or weekly.
R123, isn't Ethyl chloride worse for you than Amyl is? Again, I have no desire to use it but a bisexual friend of mine tried it in the late 1970s, or very early 1980s since it was popular at discos, and an alternative to Amyl.

In the oughts I had some fuck buds who were into fisting. Enormous quantities of poppers were sniffed. I was only marginally excited by that scene but it was diminishing returns. One time I went to an orgy but it turned into a fist party. I was with a friend who wasn't all that into fisting. We watched as fist bottoms lips turned blue-purple from so much sniffing. Then we both saw at the same moment a guy come out of the bathroom, having cleaned himself up, and yet there was a line of blood dripping down his leg. We immediately left.

R132, I've used a lot of different drugs, mainly psychedelics like acid and mushrooms, a fair amount of herb/hash, coke once, prescription opiates and Adderall/Dexedrine (not together or mixed with alcohol), food and medical grade nitrous maybe 5 times, and alcohol.
However, poppers/Amyl turned me off because of how they are apparently from what friends who have used them told me, like sniffing solvents (I never did this so I wouldn't know what it's like), only the poppers make you high, you get horny, and you get a very short lasting rush, and then you want to inhale them again.
R141, it's more common than people want to admit. This includes both among bisexual and gay men, bi and lesbian women, and heterosexual people. I have personally never fisted anyone, and have never even bottomed/been fucked by a cock as I do not want to do this and am all top, but I have met a lot of bisexual and gay men, who told me how they had been fisted once and it was not for them, or fisted a man since he wanted it done, or it was something they wanted to do. Some hetero friends of mine have told me how they fisted a woman's vagina, or her ass. There are also bisexual and lesbian women who are big into vaginal and anal fisting.
I have watched fisting porn, and I was more amazed that people could actually do that and not have to go to a hospital or did not get hurt somehow? My friend that fisted a few men as a top in the late 1970s, since at the time the men he had hooked up with wanted it done, told me how men who are into fisting usually have stretched out asses with a nasty prolapse/rosebud, and get fucked/fisted often to keep their ass able to take a fist, arm, multiple hands/arms, or large and very thick dildos.

I have no doubt that the real thing from the 70s were much better, but the poppers I’ve done on occasion in this decade have given me that same melt-into-your-partner feeling. Also makes it feel like sex is as necessary as oxygen. Pretty intense and pretty damn great with the right person, in moderation.

What a bunch of pearl clutching Marys in this thread! Poppers are fun and make sex so much more intense. You won't get cancer or a heart attack or die on the spot. Just about every guy I meet these days does poppers. Young guys, older guys, bottoms, tops. No, I'm not a whore. You all need to get out more I think. I don't "need" them every time I have sex. But if they are in the mix, it makes the experience so much more intense. "Try it, you'll like it"

I think that this subject has been sufficiently covered here. I realize that any "drug" can be abused theoretically - but this one for some reason seems so directly linked to sex and orgasm and little else that I cannot imagine most individuals using them regularly. I was not around in the late 70's when they had the real deal in a glass vial wrapped in fabric. That said, the current ones which are easily purchased online can be a great time when whiffed before orgasm (as a top) or about 10 seconds before anal (for a bottom). They tend to feel great, wear off in 10 minutes or less and they really do not entice one to use them outside of a sexual situation. No inhalents are a great idea, but people have been using them for ages with no huge issues. If you feel the need to huff them 24/7, you might have some issues and problems. Otherwise, I doubt that you will have any real health concerns.
