It should not be hard to hold a fart for an hour at least, and if it is then you need to stop eating a 24/7 diet of fast food and/or see your nearest health practitioner.
There are lots of stuff about people that are natural - getting oily hair, morning breath smell, clogged nostrils, gas. I'm not going to wake up in the morning and sit on my wife's lap while huffing and puffing bad breath into her face, simultaneously rubbing her hand over my greasy head while I blow my nose onto her shirt and fart everywhere. Apparently for some people that's just how they live their life.
Why do you people exaggerate so much - those of us comfortable with bodily functions in front of our spouse don't purposefully do it or aim to do it - but we aren't embarrassed or ashamed if a fart does slip out, or with telling our spouse if we feel gassy. I'm not going to poop with the door open while having a conversation with my DH, but I'm not going to hide the fact that I just pooped either, which some women try to do with their spouse - THAT I think is what OP is getting at, which is just weird. What if you get a health condition later in life and need your spouse's help with bodily functions? Better to already be 100% comfortable with your life partner.

Seriously I can't get over how so many people are like "but how do you survive not passing gas in front of your spouse? Isn't that so uncomfortable?"
Do these people just pass gas all day in front of their coworkers? Are they really not able to hold it in for brief periods until alone again or go into a bathroom?

Deep down, we all want to smell other people’s farts.
Think about it. Guy goes, “I farted.” You don’t leave the room, you wait for olfactory confirmation. “Oh my God, you did! Did something crawl up you and DIE?”
No, that has never once happened in my life. That is not the norm.

a lot of you grew up in a household with more bathrooms than ppl and it shows
haha but seriously - we had five members of the family sharing ONE bathroom. DH had ten people sharing two bathroomns. You learn to pee in front of ppl, you gotta pee but someone's showering, you share the bathroom (but wait to poop with the door closed). But def learn to pee in front of ppl. I'll pee in front of DH, my gfs, mom, sister, anyone I am close with. I have no shame in a natural bodily function.

I do not want to hear anyone’s bodily functions. End of story.

I seriously dont understand how this is even an issue? Unless you're incontinent, why cant you regulate your bowels? Do you openly pass gas in work and other public settings? Why are people obsessed with this topic on here?
Here’s my problem: how can you stop it? It’s not bowels; it’s gas. Can you control when you pass gas?
The vast majority of the time, yes, I can. Sometimes, between 1-5% of the time, not counting when I'm asleep, one just slips out. But normally, I can feel when I have to pass gas, I can tell it is gas and not a BM, and I will only let it out if appropriate.
I mean, seriously, most people don't fart in meetings, do they? You can hold it in at work most of the time.
Maybe your anal sphincter is looser? Too much back door action?

I think the only important thing is that you find someone who shares your sensibilities. I don't like fart jokes but plenty of people do and I hope they find one another. That's what makes a marriage work.

My husband knows when I have my period, I know when he has some gastrointestinal discomfort. But we make a pretty sincere effort not to have the other one all up in each other's bodily functions. I think he really doesn't care and would be fine with being in one another's presence while pooping but knows that that is not who I am and loves me enough to accept this as a boundary.
As another poster said, if you have zero control on delaying gas than you are the abnormal one.

You can't control if a fart is coming, but you can walk your ass elsewhere to release it.
