Do adopted children grow up to fart similar to their guardians' farts or more similar to their parents' farts? (Nature vs Nurture question)

Asked by ninjacolin (14246points) June 14th, 2011

After watching some crows/ravens uttering english words in some video.. I somehow got to wondering if our auditory rear-flatulence is mimicked after our influences or if it’s more of a genetic call.

That is: Do we “sound out” our farts according to what we’ve heard in the past? For some reason, I suspect the sound of our farts are mimicked after “fart role models.” Perhaps people we laughed about when we were kids. Most likely our parents or legal guardians. I could be wrong though.

I would like to hear read from a contrast between adopted and non-adopted people. Do your farts sound similar to your guardians’ farts even if you aren’t biologically linked?
