How does one fart?

[withmycoffee]

Reading a post today about someone's DP farting whist she ate and another about adult DSS comic farting I started wondering, what is fart etiquette in your relationship/family/home?

Do people fart openly? Leave the room? Leave the bed before releasing? Say 'excuse me'? Laugh each time? What is typical fart behaviour?

Never in someone else's presence. Just no.

We don’t do it in front of each other. Sometimes it happens by accident and we just ignore it.

My Ex used to let rip with trumps and burps and I honestly found it stomach turning.

I also need never to see him on the loo or he see me on the loo!

Oh I love these threads! I love reading the outraged comments

'scum bag behaviour'
'disgusting disgrace'

lol.

I just really can't stand folk farting near me. I don't like the smell of guts. 😂

Leave the room if possible. If it's a surprise one, a simple excuse me works fine.

My dad used to cock his leg like a dog and push them out. 🤮 He always had the sofa to himself.

I live on my own so far when I like. I have a problem because farting is a side effects of the drugs I'm on. I never do it in front of anyone else.

I've been wondering this OP! To date we've been a merry farting household but DD is 4 and I think we need to start teaching her some manners. It's ok making a choice to do gross things, different if you don't know any better.

I had an ex where we did not fart in front of each other. I used to get up in the night to parp in the en suite!

I remember when I first started dating DH he came up and hugged me from behind and I let one rip. He pretended to be blown across the room. I knew then he was a keeper.

Someone I work with realised they possibly had Covid when their son farted and they couldn’t smell it. They received a positive test result a few days later.

I try not to fart in front of anyone. I find it amazing that people over the age of twelve find them so funny to be honest.

We are competitive farters in our house. I wouldn't dream of leaving the room to fart! DS who is 2 loves to shout trump when he does one and then if he hears me or DP doing one he will shout stink

My DP is very prudish and finds farts disgusting. He has never farted in front of me (which I’m very glad of ) and I’ve only done it twice when it’s just slipped out and I didn’t know it was coming.

He’s equally horrified if I accidentally burp occasionally. I do wonder how he will cope when we have children and he’s likely to witness many more bodily functions

I am an adult, and generally able to hold my farts in until either my partner leaves the room or I leave the room for a different reason. If I accidentally farted I would probably laugh and apologise.

I never fart in front of anyone. Weirdly I’m fine about burping! If it’s a particularly impressive one I say ‘...announced the king’ afterwards

DH farts constantly, though. He often asks me to rate them out of 10.

I’m so glad it’s not just me that doesn’t do it in front of anyone I’ve never done it in front of a partner not even accidentally, it really grosses me out when couples say they have farting competitions and stuff, yuck, literally vile.

Often in our house.

I draw the line at when we’re eating though.

Always feel embarrassed farting in front of DP, luckily hasn't happened yet.

This is actually a pretty interesting thread, how different people behave.
So we’re half and half, DH farts freely and loudly (he never smells though). I fart in front of him regularly but only him. No one else and only accidental in front of DC. My DC (2 girls) aren’t very farty but when they do they give a giggle and say ‘oh I just farted’. They know it’s not something to do in front of others and not at the table.
I honestly couldn’t imagine not having a fart or a wee in front of my DH. He watched me give birth twice so the odd fart is no big deal

We all do it, kids and adults alike. We also all blame the cat, even if it is nowhere to be seen.

Leave the room, I'd never put up with a farting, or belching partner. It is revolting.

I have a seven year old with age-typical humour capacities, so no fart passes unacknowledged in this house. We have been known to apologise for particularly stinky ones.

When her father lived here, I farted whenever the need took me, but he was banned from doing it, because they were just too noxious every single time.

Never purposely done it in front of each other. Accidents get a snigger and swift move on.

Baby can do what he wants.

We all fart freely in thus house, apart from at mealtimes or around anyone who is eating.

Been with dh 10 years. He's seem be give birth, blood on pads, everything! But never farted or gone to the toilet in front of him. I just can't. I just want it private. Luckily he's the same.

We're the same. For some reason it seems less gross with our ds.
