Exploring the Wonderful World of Poppers

Hi! I’m Dallas Knoxxx, your go-to-gay for all things wild and straight-up real. I’m 27, reside in West Hollywood, and get to live out my sexual fantasies every day. I’ve starred in a studio scene (go check it out) and have an OnlyFans (I’m also on Twitter!) I’m constantly posting and spending nights cruising and hooking up in the city of angels. 

By day, I write about my adventures, my sex life, and how to navigate the glitz and glam of Los Angeles. Today, I’m giving you a taste (or a sniff) of the wild world of poppers.

What are poppers?

Poppers are my fave gay sex enhancer for a little bit of sexy fun; they are inhaled for their euphoric high and bought places like your local gay sex shop in a small bottle, and produce a quick, short-lasting high when inhaled.

Poppers can be a great way to spice up your sex life. Whether you use them frequently or never, you can use this article as a buffer for your common questions and concerns. 

What are poppers? What are the best brands? We will get into all that, but this is opinion-based and not sponsored by any popper brands. (If any brands are reading this, though, I’ll still take some free samples, please, and thanks!)

Typically known as a party drug, most gay men use these in their sexual experiences. Offering an instant way to open all holes is something out of a bottom’s dream book. If I’m at a circuit party, you can catch me clutching my chain link popper necklace like they’re my expensive diamonds and getting railed load for load. I’m drooling thinking about it!

How long do poppers last after you inhale them?

Once you sniff poppers, you can expect the drug to create a 30-second to 5-minute-long euphoric feeling, typically intensified by a sexual encounter. 

Better known as alkyl/amyl nitrite vapors, these substances help significantly relax your muscles and dive you into a state of clarity (for under 3 minutes, so don’t take that and run with it). 

For example, if you’re going to be bottoming, these will help relax you and open up your anal muscles significantly; for easy, pain-free insertion. Poppers are a way to get your bottom ready and willing; if your mind is horny and eager but your body needs some help, poppers will get your hole synced and ready for that giant thick cock all lubed up and prepared for Poundtown!

Why do I enjoy poppers as a recreational drug?

I love a good huff of poppers. They help me relax significantly, primarily since I don’t always bottom.

During this quick 3 minutes, you’ll find me very loose, warm to the touch, and loving every second. If I were to keep doing some hits, I could probably go all night. When it comes to climax, it is just the most fantastic cumshot ever. 

Typically, I cum a lot. With poppers, I SHOOT! I think it’s just a different feeling when it comes to the orgasm; it’s highly heightened. 

How are poppers good for gay porn and gay OnlyFans performers?

For performers, poppers come in handy. They can bring a sense of passion to the scene because of how good they make the other person feel or just open them up to take more cock. 

It can get you in the mood and all horny for the camera, which sometimes isn’t easy. Like any job, gay porn takes some work, and on a day when you may be hitting record and trying to get that perfect moment for your future gay OnlyFans jizz compilation, a little help to get in the mood isn’t so bad.

As a gay porn OnlyFans creator, can I shoot videos of me inhaling poppers?

For content creators, posting videos of ingesting poppers on OnlyFans is prohibited, so don’t even think of taking a massive huff on camera and posting that scene online. But some other platforms are more lenient. 

If I know I’m doing a scene that day, I’m bringing my poppers! 

Where Can I Get or Buy Poppers Locally?

Poppers are sold online and in some stores around your local gay city. You can typically find them in smoke shops or LGBT+ stores (usually in a refrigerated section). 

There, you will find an assortment of fresh bottles ready to take home. My local gay sex shop in Los Angeles usually has discounts, such as two for twenty-five or something, so make sure you ask if they have a special!

Where can I find gay poppers to buy online?

If you don’t live close to a gay city and don’t have access to a supplier for poppers, there are a lot of online shops that can fulfill your desires. The top one for me is ThePopperKing.com, which caters to the entirety of the United States and the United Kingdom. 

TwistedBeast.com, which is known for its fun and unique gay sex dildos and toys, is also a great site that offers many different brands.

They actually offer their separate website called Twisted Beast Poppers, and they do fun gay poppers that would look great in a gay poppers porn video, especially their brand of Gape Boy GameBoy-inspired packaging.

Do poppers expire?

Something to note is that poppers can expire. A great way to prevent them from spoiling too soon is to keep them refrigerated or in front of your AC unit; this helps preserve them for longer. 

They won’t necessarily “go bad,” but they will lose their effects significantly, and the high won’t last nearly as long. If your roommates spot it in the fridge, tell them it’s CD cleaner! They won’t suspect a thing. Winky face!

What is gay poppers training?

Gay poppers training refers to a practice within the queer community involving the use of poppers but in a more gay masturbation training scenario.

Gay poppers training is the act of using poppers during a solo bating and gooning session to get yourself relaxed and ready to jerk off your cock even more.

I personally haven’t done much of this with the intent of training myself. Still, it’s pretty popular online, with Reddit communities, training videos from other gay porn content creators, to even a community on Soundcloud creating gay erotic hypnosis audio tracks to bate, goon and sniff to your heart’s content.

There is even a bit of a BDSM community element to it as some people will put on these audio or video files where guys are pushing them to sniff, inhale and jerk off with them, pushing the boundaries of what is possible for their nose and their cock.

It’s definitely a “play at your own risk,” as some of these videos will push you to do four to five hits of poppers in a row, and the desire to obey could be dangerous if you don’t know your limits. Tread carefully.

What are the best brands of poppers to buy?

There are countless brands of poppers to choose from, but some stand out a little more than others. 

My favorite brand is Rush, but I’ve been venturing into other types besides the generic brands.

A good second option is Double Scorpio. Although this brand has been around for a while, I’ve just started using its products and am not disappointed.

A fun thing about Double Scorpio is that they have different scents. Sometimes they even have seasonal scents perfect for Spooky Season, a Secret Santa gift for a hard-to-buy bottom or a hot and horny gay hookup you like that you fuck on the regular. They even had a Charli XCX flavor (now out of stock) with a hint of peppermint and a dash of eucalyptus.

Do different brands of poppers have different euphoric effects?

Most poppers have the same effect. Some brands have different strength levels depending on how loose you try to get. 

I want to get as loose as possible, so the stronger, the better. Some brands of poppers that I have noticed have more of an effect are Amsterdam, Liquid Gold, Jungle Juice, and Blue Boy.

What’s the strongest gay poppers you can buy online or locally?

Most known as Maximum Impact Spray, this has to be the strongest type of inhalant on the market. The bottle says “Not For Human Consumption,” but the gays have found a way to amplify their sex life, and I’m not mad about it. 

However, prowling the Reddit forums for more information, be careful, as some users online report feeling nothing different than a typical poppers brand, to passing out, to reports of it being lethal.

I have a couple of friends who are into some more rough play when it comes to sex, so these help them out a lot. From their perspective, you should not ingest too much of these because it feels almost like you are not in control. 

Leaving you motionless and relaxed, some bottoms don’t even realize that the top is inside of them, so please be careful in all of your sexual fantasies. We want you to enjoy and have a euphoric experience. 

What do poppers mean to me? What can I say to a first-time user?

Poppers, for me, are magical. If I’m on the brink of orgasm, hand me that bottle because I want to be uncontrollably shaking. They send chills over your whole body while feeling light as a feather, so just imagine what cumming would feel like… BLISS.

If you have never done poppers, I highly suggest trying an ordinary bottle in a non-sexual setting before you try them in a sexual encounter so you can see what your reactions are and how they affect you. 

Sometimes, if you’re not used to poppers, they can be way too much. I remember the first time I tried poppers; I was at the club in West Hollywood. Being in a club setting is a great place to give these a go for the first time. Having the constant bass and lights going crazy above you enhances the effects of the inhalant. 

Within the first thirty seconds of sniffing the bottle, you’ll start to feel your body dipping down into a serene state and feeling every sound, light, and touch, which will bring you peace and openness. I love it!

Are Poppers a Normal Thing to Enjoy During Sex?

In the gay community, poppers are normalized. Just about every hookup I have had in the city has been fueled by poppers and their magical powers. Offering warmth in the cold, a hard-on when you’re not feeling in the mood, or relaxation when you’re feeling stressed, these bad boys will be around a lot. They make gay anal sex so much better.

Do gay males only use poppers?

A great conversation starter is asking your straight friends if they have ever done poppers before. If their answer is “No, what the F are those?” ask them if they want to give them a go without giving them too much information. That way, they can decide if they like them after they wear off versus you scaring them away from your explanation. 

Most straight people I have offered these to are highly open with them and enjoy them just as much as the gays. 

It’s always so much fun when you give them to someone for the first time, and you can see them just vibing and enjoying their experience. To a straight person who has heard of poppers before, most of the time, they’ve never tried them… they have a gay friend they’re close with who has talked about them before. THESE are the straights you want to be friends with because they are always down for gay antics.

To most gays, these are not a drug but an enhancer. To everyone else, this is deemed as a recreational drug. 

I suggest doing ALL the research you can before going and getting yourself a bottle. 

I don’t want to give you medical advice, but there are things you should not mix with poppers, like Viagra! So please do your own research. They are not for everyone and might give someone some anxiety or discomfort. 

I get extremely relaxed, but that’s not everyone. If I know I might hook up with someone, I gotta make sure I have my bottle of poppers handy—because I’m definitely going to want a sniff! 

Until next time, 

Dallas Knoxxx
