To fart in front of DH?

[FrequentFarter]

This is actually a serious question!

I usually just let rip if I need to, but I am going against all I previously thought about how to conduct a relationship - ie to preserve some mystery. I also do things like cut my toe-nails when DH is about.

Should I stop farting and toe-nail cutting when in DH's company?

(PS He farts too but less often )

I never ever ever fart in front of dp - I have done a couple of times whilst semi-asleep and have been ]blush]

Hmm, I def fart in front of my dh - and my dd nearly passed out this morning from one I dropped .

I never go to the toilet/change tampons whatever in front of him. I don't want to see anyone else doing it, so I won't subject him to it.

What about friends - do you guys fart in front of friends? I say its the measure of a good friendship

Not farting in front of your DH is not about "preserving mystery", it is just about basic consideration for others so that you are a nice person to be around.

I try to control the amount of farting I do in front of DH, but not much.

In 12 years together not only have DH NEVER heard or smelt (gross) me fart..but i have never heard or smelt him either...

I would hate for us to suddenly start farting in front of each other

[purpleduck]

And also, wouldn't the mystery become "why doesn't my wife produce any CO2 what kind of freak is she????"

I know! he must be full of hot air
We have never been to the toilet in front of each other, thats one step too far for me.

we don't mind weeing in front of each other, but any hint of a number two and it's everyone (else) out! Can't quite cope with that. Mostly cos of the smell.

And I just wanted to add that I didn't make DH give up the beer - he voluntarily switched to wine, and then voluntarily gave it all up last September when he humiliated himself over did it a bit at a works do.

[Snooch]

As a rule I don't like to (although being pregnant it is a struggle... ) but on the odd occasion that I have by accident DH has thought it very funny indeed and hasn't been at all disgusted (he does it ALL the time of course) - I really don't think men care at all - they're a different breed altogether!

can u all jump over to the grotty man thread( warning, its not for the faint hearted, or those with a delicate stomach!) ,

DP and I are sort of fart conniseurs. We fart in front of each other, and grade the rankness. (we don't deliberately sniff) extra points if it lingers.

[AnnVan]

Oh and we have no probs weeing in front of each other. If he's in the shower and I need a wee, I go (and visa versa) no pooing in front of each other though.

Whether you be in church, or, chapel, let the rafters rattle!

[MerrilyDefective]

OLucylabia...
I wrote this on a previous thread.

Where 'ere ye may be
let your wind gan free
in church or in chapel
let it rattle.

The responses were somewhat sniffy.
I kid you not,some said it was quite repulsive

Weelll..I tend not to let rip in front of my DH..and if i do (they tend to be silent but violent) I will apologise..he on the other hand is duvet lifter in the extreme but he also apologises...now with the toe-nail clipping my DH clips my toe ..got him well trained

I love sitting on the pot to blow one.....the amplified acoustics are great, especially with a tiled bathroom. As for bombing the pot, well, everyone gets told to make for the exit for their own safety, but then we are a bit mad in our house.

I was once told a story about a farmer who leant on the back of a cow, in a shed, and lit his pipe just as the cow let rip. It blew the shed roof off. Needless to say the farmer was called Mr Methane by his friends from that day on.

20 months ago I started dating my OH and didn't fart in front of him for the first six months. He thought it was quite un-natural and begged me to be relaxed enough to let one go in his company. One night we were snuggled oddly on the sfa and I trumped on his shoulder!! Not looked back since but do tend to apologise after as does he.

Today he proposed!! So I'd say it's ok to fart in front of your OH
