Reddit reviews Mace Brand Police Strength Pepper Spray 10% Pepper Foam (Large)

Damn, you're too young for me. But I hope you do find love! At that age gay love can be so powerful yet innocent.

And a few words of warning. What I'm about to say is something I very much so wished someone told me when I was a young gay man.

ALWAYS use condoms, even in a relationship (for at least two years into a relationship and request that your boyfriend/partner regularly get checked for STDs (show him your test results and he should show you his test results; even if he swears he's not cheating) As you get older and have sex there are men who will do something called 'stealthing', which is where they secretly take the condom off during sex. This IS rape. You need to do what gay men learned to do during the AIDS crisis in the 80s-90s; which is during sex, reach back, feel his dick, and check to see the condom is still on your partner. Do it several times during sex, it is awkward at first but you get used to it. Condoms break and slip off. But some evil, evil men really do take the condom off on purpose, even if they KNOW they have STDs.

Always get STD tested every six months, every 3 months is better. And remember this:

99.9% of STD is no longer a death sentence. Especially if you get checked early. There are treatments for all STDs, and cures for most, and medicine advances every day, exponentially.

IF.... IF you ever get an STD, especially HIV. It will be emotionally difficult at first... but the stress will lessen each day. Find a support group, your doctor will know how you can find one. Don't let yourself think you have to fight alone.

ALSO!!!!!! VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!!!

LEARN A MARTIAL ART!!!

I learned Muay Lao, I highly recommend it. It's Laotian kick boxing and it's VERY powerful (and VERY fun!!!).

But something like ju-jitsu or the best is probably Judo. Which will teach you how to fight when on the ground which 99% of real fights devolve into.

YOU NEED THIS TO STAY ALIVE IF ATTACKED!!!!

ALSO get 3 bottles of Mace. Preferably the foam kind.

Use one to test it out. Go into the backyard and make a test dummy, you can use a watermelon on a fence post or just stick a piece of paper with a smiley face on a fence and practice spraying it from different distances. BUT BUY/USE THE SAME BRAND/MODEL. So that when/if you have to use it in real life you know how it will work.


WEAR A MASK!!!!! Buy a swimming mask that covers both the eyes and nose. And has a suction seal.

DON'T EVER TEST MACE ALONE!!!!!

Have someone else on standby and it's best to have 3 tubs of water on stand by. They need to be large enough to easily dunk your head in. Just clean water, no soap.

If you ever get some in your eyes, have your friend help you to the first tub of water and dunk your face in and use your fingers to wipe (not rub) AWAY FROM YOUR EYES IN ALL DIRECTIONS. This should only take a few seconds. Then move onto the second tub and repeat wiping your face off away from the eyes. Spend a few more seconds in the second tub then move to the third and repeat again. Finally use a water hose to rinse your eyes. That will help. It burns and it takes about 30 minutes before the burn starts to wear off.

Again, use one to test it out, the second should go in your car on the driver side door (there's usually a pocket on the door that works great). And keep the third on you whenever you go out. Especially alone or on a date. I don't care how well you know the other person, bring the mace.

One final suggestion. Read 'The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology' by Dr. Ray Kurzweil. Dr. Ray Kurzweil is now the director of engineering at google, there is a reason for this... it's because he's a genius. His other books are great too, I liked 'How to Create a Mind' as well.

Let me know if you have any questions!

A local cop recommended the Mace pepper foam to me.

This is what I carry daily.
