Do you fart in public?

Asked by GloPro (8404points) May 2nd, 2014 from iPhone

Do you let it fly whenever, wherever? Do you step outside or into a corner?

Do you let out a SBD in a crowd, and pretend to be as disgusted as everyone else?

I keep everything coming out of anything below my waist to myself when I am in front of my boyfriend. Even after 2.5 years I kept my bathroom habits private. I will never shit in front of anyone, but I will pee/fart in front of girlfriends. I don’t know why my lines are drawn where they are. I’m happy with those standards.

What are you comfortable with sharing?

I have wiped out entire cities with my farts.

Only if they are silent.

How can one not?

Yes. I usually walk down an empty aisle and leave a nice stink bomb for the unfortunate person that just started down the other end. I always try to get away before they reach ground zero.

Constantly but my wife is worse them me. She also burps loud enough to shake the ground.

I knew a guy who did some amateur boxing. He told me that when he was in the ring, he occasionally let one loose.

He called himself “Gaseous Clay”

You have to sometimes, but I’ve never advertised it if that’s what you mean.

@flip86 nailed this one for me. Empty aisle and scram.

I belch and fart in front of my S/O, but even that developed slowly over the 10 years we’ve been together.

Only if there’s not a lot of people around. And I try to make it silent (don’t ask how that works).

I’ll try to hold it in public, but I mean if I really have to release it, free and away it shall fly. I’ll try to make sure it doesn’t make noise, but if it does, it does. I just apologize after. People are not going to hang you for this. and some get turned on haha It also isn’t very good to hold in farts too long. Your body is not releasing these gases for nothing.

If I know it’s going to be silent and I’m not with anyone or close to anyone then I might let it go if I’m desperate. I tend to hold it for as long as possible though.

My boyfriend and I have been together for 8 years and I have only farted in front of him three times, all accidental!

Well, I just farted laying in bed and it woke up my puppy in his crate. I was hoping to sleep a little longer. Serves me right.

I always try to hold it in. Other than just for courtesy sakes, but also to avoid embarrassment. I rarely do silent farts. If its by accident, then yeah, I will do “replication.” As in, trying to make a fart noise with something else, like my leather boots or a chair, so people will think it was that and not my smelly butt.

@MarvinPowell – can you describe “replication”? seems like a clever approach.
