P.S. Know that there are also many different types of poppers: Amyl Nitrite (the original), Butyl Nitrite, IsoButyl Nitrite, CycloHexyl Nitrite. IsoPropyl Nitrite, Alkyl Nitrite. Each name refers to the molecular structure of the liquid. It’s been a long time, so I can’t remember them all now, but for instance, “ClycloHexyl” was a molecular structure that contained six carbon atoms connected in a hexagonal shape IsoButyl had an extra oxygen atom, isolated off of the carbon chain, etc. etc. I’m not a chemist, but way back in the day, a guy who was a chemist explained all of this to me. Also, I asked him about any cacinogenic effects from poppers, and I remember him saying that the longer the carbon chain got at the molecular level, the more there *could* be a chance of carcinogenic properties. However, no poppers formulation was even close to having that long of a carbon chain. Also, studies have been done in the U.K. that show poppers to be relatively benign, and even my PCP, who is homosexual, and a long time experienced physician who specializes in gay men told me “no, we really don’t think so” when I asked him about any negative health effects. They are almost, *almost* as benign as inhaling helium to make your voce sound funny. However, overuse, heavy binge use, etc. can cause superficial issues (I would know. Ha.). So moderate. You will learn what and how much you are comfortable with.
I will say though, that I could “popper” just about anyone under the table. Ha.
