Fart acceptance movement

I think the long held gender norm of cis-gendered females not passing gas even in private with their mates is archaic. I for one have never held passing gas in front of me against of my SO's. If I'm allowed to do it (within reason), so should she.

Anybody else have a strong conviction on this subject?

    I try not to, but since I upped my veggie eating sometimes you just gotta try to pass the blame along with the gas

    Great - so I have to hold in my vomit so that you don't have to hold in your gas!

    It's a matter of courtesy. I do not subject others to such unpleasantness and I appreciate the same.

    To the best of our abilities, of course. Accidents do happen.

    Protein powders and products, along with militant squat people has made gas passing more of a right of passage. I think they have levelled badges for it in crossfit.

    Have you ever been sitting at your desk and you want to launch a test ballon, you know, to see if the real things is going to bad only to have the test ballon come out in full force?

    I hate when that happens

    My wife and I have been together for 7 years and never once passed gas in front of each other... I totally agree that it's just a courtesy.

    Is each often followed with "did you hear that?"

    With my bf we pass gas when it happens. With people I don't really know I tend to try and silent release it, go to the bathroom or pretend it never happened.

    I make efforts to be courteous to everyone and not subject them to my expulsions.

    But if I get a chance to crop dust my ex while he's on the treadmill...

    He who smelt it, dealt it. But you can still blame it on the dog. :D

    9 years later neither of us cares, we just make funny shocked faces at the other and ask if they stepped on a duck.

    There were two standard jokes in our house, both instigated by my father. The first was that when one of us farted, he would say, "I thought you played by ear!?"

    The second was that he would blame it on the dog, whose name was Brindle. He would fart and say, "Brindle!!".

    One day, we were over at a friend's house, and his father farted and said, "Brindle!". My brother and I almost passed out holding in the laughter. Apparently my brother's buddy had overheard my father and carried the tradition back to his house, and taught it to HIS father! Too freakin' funny!

    Currently, in my house, GF and I don't make anything of it. Everyone farts. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes...it's not!

    It's natural and should be acceptable. No Dutch Ovens, though.

    We call it turtling and it was banned around year eight. Sometimes I miss it.

    A friend of mine taught me to say, "Someone keeps farting in here," or "Was that you?"

    Deep thought: if two people are on an elevator and one of them farts, they both know who did It.

    I really had no idea there were so many anal retentives still around. ;) I kid. Your house, your rules.
