I wonder why?

[Mamyalynne]

Not a clue, not something I know anything about.

[Svejk]

I believe, when they find these chaps that put an orange in their mouth and hang themselves, they often have a few poppers tucked in their bras. (if that helps)

[cassa333]

Why are they referenced as a gay man thing?

If it enhances pleasure surly all men would want to take it? And thinking on that line does it not have the same effect on women?

[douglas9401]

Because, cassa, like Priscilla Queen Of The Desert, they've made it their own.

[Old_Geezer]

Oh. That's the problem with just putting links. I thought you meant at parties where you pull the string and then bang. (No not tampons.)

[ummmm]

I thought they were suppose to get someone in the mood but you get a rush if you sniff it straight from the bottle.

" And thinking on that line does it not have the same effect on women? "

Yes, it does :-)

[agchristie]

Why does that MP Crispin have to be so blunt?

[Cloverjo]

Well, I'm glad it's legal, in case I ever want to try them again. I think I might still have some hidden away somewhere. I wonder if it'll still be ok.
It's no surprise that the Tory MP wants to keep it legal.

[Svejk]

Some of our AB ladies shock me, they do. What a sheltered life I've led.

[jackthehat]

Seems a sensible result.
They are advertised on The Prom as 'room odourisers'....LoL
I'm not sure I'd want any room in my house smelling like amyl-nitrate!

[Svejk]

'Seems a sensible result.'

I don't know, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

[jackthehat]

You inhale it...not drink it! :o)

/// The Psychoactive Substances Act, which comes into force in the UK next month, makes it illegal to supply drugs which have a direct effect on mental processes, unless the drug is exempted. ///

So if these drugs do not have a direct effect on the brain, they must have an indirect effect, more in their pants.

[Svejk]

Seriously though, it smacks of, 'would you want your servants reading this book' or, 'we're banning smoking in every bar in the country except, of course, here in the Palace of Westminster'.

[agchristie]

AOG > they must have an indirect effect, more in their pants

Yes, there is panting and there is ecstacy....

[Peter Pedant]

You inhale them Sxhweik and not swallow them ....

Nitrites have been around for 100 yrs. Brudenell found they relieved angina attacks around 1870.

[douglas9401]

Svejk may have been refering to the personal hygeine of honourable (ahem) members leaving a bad taste.

Gay men like it because it relaxes the anal sphincter
