Farting!

    I was just wondering what people thought about a little argument i had with my girlfriend.

    She doesn't like me farting so being the gentleman i am i dont fart around her. But i do like a good fart in the morning in the toilet.
    She says i should stop this as she has to go in to the toilet after me and also says she can hear it from the bedroom and finds it repulsive.
    I say where can i fart if i cant fart in the bedroom. Its natural and you have to let it out sometime. - the argument goes on.

    What do other people think and please state whether your male or female.

    We've been going out 18 months and I've heard her fart once. She got embarrassed. I think its 1 all at this stage though.

    Anyway - my point - I think its pretty gross and only for within the comfort of your own privacy (or someone where someone else cant reap the eh..."rewards")

    when a woman is going down on you is always a good laugh.

    Sounds like she makes the biggest stink in your household.

    OP tomorrow morning get up before she wakes. Then squat over her head and rattle her awake. As she comes too just let off a big ripper right in her face and tell her she doesn't know how good she has it.

    Believe it or not, some people don't like smelling other peoples farts... shocking I know... how about some manners/decency or respect for other people?
    The amount of shíte I'd get off someone because they can smell my cigarette smoke from across the building... yet they'd fart in my presence.
    And before anyone mentions it, I've smelled farts that I'm sure would give you cancer if you inhaled enough of them. :eek:

    Have you asked her where she farts? She can't deny farting.

    There is one way to put an end to it. Drop one of these babies into her green tea and stand outside the bathroom door.

    Ever see those ads for the air freshener that lets off "puffs".
    Women sell their farts to these companies.

    Oh God...

    I fully endorse the theory that you can enjoy your own farts but are repulsed by other peoples... fart in seclusion, dont kill other people with your bowel fumes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront


    I think Im a bit weird for a man in that i wouldnt do it in public at all and dont like it when my mates do it either. I just think its bad form, and while I accept that if we didnt do it, we'd explode, I just think theres a time and a place etc. Its rude if a man does, it and if a female did it I have to say id never look at her the same way again! Especially if we were in a relationship. Its a bit old fashioned but thats what I think

    *Not that girls actually fart of course


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,549 ✭✭✭BrianD3


    I have never heard of anyone having a problem with hearing someone farting in a TOILET. But many women are uptight about farting and sh1tting. Your gf sounds like she's particularly uptight. It's like a phobia for many women they are so disgusted and appalled by toilet matters that they don't eat enough fibre in their diet because they're afraid it'll result in big healthy sh1ts. The result is constipation and "bloating" which they try to cure by drinking gallons of "healthy bacteria" yoghurts

    Myself and my girlfriend are 2 years together and engaged. She used to never be able to fart in front of me, nor me in front of her. That lasted a few months. Now we couldn't care less... (* unless of course, it totally fumigates the place, with the stench causing you to not want to even breathe... but that's usually me, not her...) It's sort of a sign of being used to each other.

    It's a natural bodily function. I don't see what the big deal is.

    There are lots of 'natural' things I wouldn't do in the company of other people.
    Making other people breathe your farts is sick and perverted.
    Bring back the victorian sense of self-disgust I say.

    I remember when I first met my husband, we were in the bedroom and I farted and he looked at me like I had 2 heads. He then proceeded to proclaim to me that his mother had never farted and how un-ladylike this was. After we were married I told his mother about this and I have never seen someone laugh so hard. To prove that she does fart she did it in the same room as him. The look of shock literally made me almost pee myself laughing! ;) So yes women do fart and really I think it's rather sexist that some men think we shouldn't...ok you stop then too!

    Anytime when nobody is around,it must always be silent,i find loud farts repulsive,in fact i even find the word repulsive and i cant understand how anyone can find humour in it!

    Farting loudly is plain bad manners!

    Because it's basic manners,just like picking your nose is,just because no one else is in the room doesnt make it any less bad manners!

    Some people like farts, some dont. No harm really.

    I love farting in the morning but have often nearly exploded through having to hold in it while shes in bed....wouldnt do it to people i dont know :D

    Anyone ever notice how much fart ammo there is after a night of sex? :D

    Jesus, I can't believe some people are so anal that they don't allow themselves to fart loudly, ever.


    EDIT: No pun intended


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront


    Farting, burping, nosepicking, peeing, snoring, its all the one, and if it must be done then let it be done quickly and quietly, or out of earshot! After all, it is minging

    o you smile, sniff it and give him a high-five? :confused:

    Of course not. First you have to wait for them to raise their palm in order to indicate you are included in the celebrations.

    Otherwise you're just being incredibly rude!

    At times, silent. But you always like the smell of your own brand, its just a matter of how good you are at saying "It wasn't me" when asked :)

    Yep, I can. In fact I can even imagine a girl following through.

    Im sorry you feel that way,i like to think of myself as mannerly so therefore i dont ever do it loudly,its the way i was raised,i realise this isnt for some people but it's how i am!

    you can't be mannerly if your name is anto. it makes as much sense as the chewbacca defence.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront


    Has anyone ever farted during sex? I cant imagine it going down well. The whole affair should be made entirely illegal (the farting not the sex)
