I think farting is okay in a relationship, however both parties should be dating at least six mos. first before they pass gas in front of each other.

I KNOW everyone farts and it is only a natural bodily function blah blah blah, but truthfully when a guy farts in front of me when I have only been dating him a few mos., it turns me off.

I wouldn't say it was a deal~breaker, but it sure isn't endearing.

So should they fart behind you instead?


Yes. That makes it easier to blame it on her.

Unless you're 12 fucking years old, who the hell cares? It's farting. It's natural. Grow up.

Smell scale (worst to least):
Road kill skunk
Women
Dogs
Babies
Field of roses
Typical man

I asked my husband what he thought about this thread. I think we are happy farters. He said he is fine with the level of farting, but that mine smell much worse than his.

Doesn't affect my attraction to him at all.

This!

You know how smell is one of the strongest senses for memories? Well I bet my kids will remember me every time someone rips one for the rest of their lives.

As I said in my original post, I did not hold back when I was married. Looking back, I'm not sure if that was a good or bad thing. I think my ex husband didn't really appreciate it (along with so many other things about me). So I'm just doing a poll here to find out how farting has affected your intimacy. It's nice to hear that most people seem to have fun with it.

And in other news, while I was with my BF this weekend, he let a few rip. We laughed about it, a lot. So now I feel like I kind of have a pass for gas if I need it.


I remember my dad as an uptight asshole that never farted in front of me. No pun.

It depends. Different rules apply. I don't mind it, so if she rips, I don't care. She doesn't want me to rip so I don't really do it. Loudly.

F here. It bothers me when DH doesn't say "excuse me". Or, if he's otherwise inconsiderae (say, comes in the car and lets one out as soon as he closes the door; should have farted on the sidewalk.)

It doesn't get old. Just funnier. Family tradition that I hope my kids pass (pun intended) along.


I plan on using that in a few minutes....
