This is a pretty silly question, but at least it's light and funny and fairly easy to answer.

Guys, I have noticed, have no problem running around with all of their bodily functions flailing in the breeze. Many ladies are not quite so comfortable, myslef included.

Guys: at what point in a realtionship can an audible fart be forgiven? Do you really care about the "girls are perfect" facade, even though we too are flatulant?

Oh wow. Fell off my chair laughing so hard as I read all of these!!

The accidental fart anecdotes cracked me up, the intentional farts, I'll admit, I'm really not ever going to do, and the fart condemnation was the funniest of all.

About a week ago, after some fast food, my boyfriend and I were hanging out with a group of his friends. Due to the food, I suddenly "felt the need", and silently released my intesinal protest to the food. Well...apparently, silent IS deadly, because they all spent the next five minutes tackling each other for producing such a stench. Never did they even consider that it was ME who did it!! I still chuckle about that.

I think it's gonna be a while before I comfortably fart around my boyfriend, but wow was this question worth the laughs or what??

CindyCares agony aunt Guys I don't know what to say - if all you people are clamoring for freedom to fart - then I welcome a steel fisted dictatorship.

I can't believe what I am reading, and in case you think I am some stuck up snob, I want to precise that I am an equal opportunity dater :) and my partners came from every walk of life , from very high to very low.

My last LTR had grown up as one of the 8 children of a truck driver in a Third World country, so it's not like he had ever brushed shoulders with the jet set . Nevertheless, not only he never dreamt to fart in front of me, but once that a burp escaped him, he was embarrassed and apologized.

I just hope that all the posters that can control their flatulence but won't because they think it's funny or amusing are very, very, young people- maybe 13 ? - and will get a different sense of humour when they grow up.

I think a couple should never enter the territory where farting in front of each other is allowed. It is just disrespectful and disgusting. If you fart by accident, well, there is nothing you can do but apologize. But, if you can control it, excuse yourself and go to the bathroom. You are human beings not pigs.

hii...

well, i'm not a guy, buuut i figured i'd put my two cents in. i couldn't help but laugh when i saw this question. i actually had a conversation with my aunt about this a little while back. she was on her first date with this guy, and she ended up letting an "audible fart" slip--i think she was laughing or something, and it just kind of happened. was she embarrassed??? YOU BET!!! but the guy just laughed and said, "heyy, it's okayy!!! here, let me do it, too!!!" and proceeded to release an "audible fart" as well. i'm not exactly sure how long it's been, buuut the bottom line is that they have spent a great number of years happily married and are still going strong. i'm sure that she probably thought that she screwed it up, buuut she obviously didn't. soo, my guess is that an "audible fart" can be forgiven pretty early on. apparently, some guys even think it's cool when a girl isn't afraid to do that in front of them. personally, i never have, buuut i'm sure it's bound to happen someday. after hearing that particular story, however, i'm not as worried about it...and i hope that the same thing is true for you.

good luck, and God bless,

Its so funny when your girl friend farts especially if you need to fart as well becuase it lets you do at least a couple in her presence before she gets pissed off with it.

And becuase your girlfriend gets embarassed, its fun to take the piss out of her for a while - most men will know that you rarely get the opportunity to do so with woman because they are always so acutely aware of how it will make them look and they would never actively do something to make them look silly

Anytime a girl farts is fine with me

CindyCares agony aunt I hope you are kidding. Please tell me you are kidding ?...

Luckily my experience is different- not only of when I was your age which happened a couple of centuries ago, but even now in our days. Neither my 21 y.o. son nor his friends nor my teen niece nor all the young people I have alway been around for work and study reasons think is fun , cute or acceptable going around ,ahem, touting your horn. And we don't live at Buckingham Palace, we are all very normal people, just with a minimum of ,let's call it,social adjustment.

If it happens - one can have an upset tummy or something - Ok, it happens- it's not you have to commit suicide about it. But in general, you take care of not making it happen

around other people.

Btw, a word of advice to all these overflatulent boys and girls you are talking about - if it happens so often and so audibly, probably you are chewing too fast, or with your mouth too open ( ingesting too much air ) or consuming too many carbs and sugars.

Otherwise , the gas forming in your intestine is a modicum

quantity that can be easily and semi-silently be expelled in the privacy of your bathroom at the- ahem again- appropriate times.
