The twisty, titillating, controversial history of homosexual sex drug poppers
You'll recognize it if you smell it. "Nail polish remover with a hint of permanent marker." "Photo chemicals." "It's hard to depict the smell, but I know I hate it."
These Reddit users – of the subreddit "Ask Gay Men" – are talking about poppers, alkyl nitrite inhalants that many lgbtq+ men sniff from little bottles in order to touch euphoric on the dance floor and/or loosen up before anal sex. They may "hate" the smell, but that isn't stopping them, either.
"It's just a momentary high appreciate that's like a minute- or two long, every second you sniff," says Adam Zmith, composer of "Deep Sniff: A History of Poppers and Lgbtq+ Futures."
Poppers as a gay sex drug dates back to the 1960s in the U.S. People joke that you can smell the poppers "through the screen" when perusing social media footage of gay men jiving, gyrating. Troye Sivan's song "Rush," for example, shares a name with a poppers brand.
But that euphoric, sexual feeling – which comes from sniffing chemical compounds called nitrites – isn't always so euphoric or sexual. It can be unsafe in excess (though many users don't realize it or care – or both).
“Poppers” have been a fixture for LGBTQ people on the club and sex party circuit for years.
Poppers are a liquid drug used for recreation that can give an instant high when inhaled. Other names for it are amyl nitrate, butyl nitrite and liquid gold. The effects of poppers are immediate and incorporate euphoria, warm sensations and an increased heart rate. Poppers can be a sex enhancer and contribute to sexual arousal. They loosen the anal muscles, but can also bring on dizziness and headaches.
The petty bottles are usually sold at senior novelty stores and are often at the counter at gas station markets and convenience stores. Popular brand names include Buzz and Rush.
Although intense, most of the euphoric effects wear off quickly, typically within a few minutes. The drug is unsafe for people to take, and the FDA, mindful of post-lockdown partiers eager to obtain back in the club scene and return to the normalcy of nightlife and all that entails, has issued a new warning: don’t use poppers.
On their website, the FDA notes, “FDA is advising consumers not to purchase or use nitrite ‘poppers’ which can result in stern adverse health effects, including death. These product

Poppers: reviewed from foremost to worst
As a chemical class, alkyl nitrites (AKA poppers) are vasodilators. Inhale, and they smooth muscles surrounding the body’s blood vessels, relaxing minds and sphincters. First used in the 19th century to treat chest pain, they are now a common accoutrement of a wild night at the club, or in the bedroom. A fairly harmless “drug”, poppers remain mired in a semi-legal grey zone, with new recipes devised to evade creeping rule. There are even “European” – isopropyl nitrite – and “American” – isobutyl nitrite – versions (though for once, arguably, the American product is better).
To hear from a true specialist, I spoke with Javier who works at a sex shop in Brooklyn. “All the types of poppers are basically the same bullshit,” he tells me. Famous labels – like Jungle Juice, Man Scent, and Amsterdam – are even produced in the similar factory. Like much in late capitalism, branding is nearly everything. Buy “Man Scent” to unleash your piggy fantasies, or maybe stick with classic “Rush” to accentuate the
