Girls burping....gross or not??

[sandalfeet]

I am proud to say i can burp with the best of belchers. Now some guys think it's cool when i do and some think it's gross. When i go to my boyfriends familys house for dinner, me and my boyfriends dad sit on opposite sides of him. we are both belchers. we start in on our burp fest as SO screams "gross!!! Strereo burping!"



so what do you all think? gross or not?

[Mr. Blue Sky]

Yes. And farting, too.

[sandalfeet]

i draw the line at farting.....but not when i'm by myself :D

[Novus Opiate]

Gross, IMHO. I know the ocassional accidental belchage is going to occur, but any purposeful belching just grosses me out.

Sandalfeet , I'm with you. I can burp with the best of 'em but only a select few have ever been witness to it... i get shy you see . I'm also totally against farts either my own or other people, but burps don't worry me.

[Bearflag70]

Call me kooky, but I like it!

I happen to be a great belcher, and if an SO can keep up with me, then SCORE big points in my book. Somehow, it lets me know she's not a priss and can cut loose.

No farts allowed by either party. They stink.

[Guinastasia]

You should hear my mother. My GOD, can that woman belch!

[jazzmine]

I am positively horrified by this thread. The lies and misconceptions that you all are spreading is simply ghastly.

Everyone that is anyone knows that girls do not burp or...ahem...fart.

We all know they poot. :D

Sandalfeet, you are no grosser than your boyfriends dad.

Now whether or not you're both gross is each person's opinion, but just because you're a girl doesn't mean that your burps are grosser, or that it's grosser for you to be doing them.

With this logic (and some practical follow-ups to persuade him I meant it) I taught my SO that farting in bed was NOT funny... or if it was funny when he did it, it was just as hilarious when I did it (and held his head under the covers). He quickly saw my point of view, and now there's no intentional farts in the goo-bed.

Basically, it may or may not be gross, but if it is, it's just as gross when your dad's doing it.

Not gross. I fear women who won't burp. Well, not fear, but what the hell. Its just a burp. Maybe I'm low class. :D

[Geek Mecha]

I think it's kinda gross. But then again, my belches have no volume whatsoever, so it could just be envy talking.

Pooting accidentally is excusable. Intentional nuking, on the other hand, is plain ol' disgusting.

Not gross. People are faaaaaaaaaaaaar too uptight in these United States. I especially think it's great when a woman let's loose a big one in a group of people whilst drinking beer. I think that's cool.

I'm rather iffy on the whole flatulence thing though. I mean, sometimes a fart escapes and there's nothing you can do about it. I have a relative who just lets loose whenever SHE feels like it and it really puts me on edge - but that's more my fear talking than anything. I tend to be rather concerned about what other people will think of her, since I love her so much (OK OK, and yes, I don't like the idea of people passing judgment on me either). There, I said it.

[BillyGnos]

My mom and sister both burp at will. It makes me cringe. I think if some gorgeous girl let out a huge one, it would take her attractiveness down a notch. Actually, now that I think about it, anyone's burping makes me cringe. I guess I'm sensitive like that.:rolleyes:

[Badtz Maru]

Only if I can smell it.

[Tansu]

My man treats my burps and farts with the respectful awe that they deserve. I warn him before a bed fart, so that he can insert the Fart Guard™ (a pillow placed between my arse and his body). Nothing I can do about a car fart, though. Just have to open the windows.

If one has gas, the gas has to come out. Better to burp than be in pain.

[Urban Ranger]

That is just gross. It means that you have no concern for other people.

[Simetra]

"Of course girls don't fart. Only skeevy stoners fart."*

Personally, I think it's gross if intentional, but otherwise funny if it just slips out.



That being said, I can belch the alphabet backwards easily.

[roadrunner70]

Tansu, could you please teach my wife "bed-farting etiquette?" Holy Christ that woman could knock a buzzard off a sh*twagon with her emissions. I encourage the burping, telling myself that it's gonna spare me a night bomb.

[Tretiak]

Depends, is she naked?

You *sure* about that? It IS a natural function, afterall.

[Jman]

I think it's funny. I don't like it in public, for either girls or guys, but if a girl is in my apartment, or among friends and she lets one go, I get a big chuckle out of it.

There's a difference between a "natural" belch, and one that has been intentionally amplified. Regardless of sex, the first is okay, the second is gross. IMHO, they both warrant an "exuse me."

[easy e]

to clarify my previous post


--read "regardless of sex of the belcher, just in case any of you jokers thought I was talking about belching while in the act.

--yes, I know it's spelled "excuse"

I hiccup instead of burping. No really, I do. Just one hiccup where one would normally think a burp would be. It's not that I won't burp, I just don't ... or I should say, very very rarely. When I do, it's barely audible.

Sometimes I wish I could... the hiccup sometimes is painful.

[dcordell1960]

Hey, lets be honest.
Even the Pope does it.

[iampunha]

Ain't got no problem with burping or farting. Just don't do either in my face on purpose:)

[erislover]

For those who think it is bad: What exactly is the apprehension about burping? I mean, do you think it is gross? If it is rude, why is it rude? I mean, at least farts smell. What's the problem with a little old burp?

Mauv, you have cute burps, eh? ;) And sheesh, a hiccup burp does sound like it would hurt.

[Guinastasia]

It may be gross, but trust me, NOTHING cures nausea like a good belch.

Unfortunately, I cannot burp on command. Only if I drink something carbonated, or if I have to, I burp. But I can't do it on purpose. :(

[erislover]

Note to self: teach Guin how to belch. :D

[pulykamell]

WTF is wrong with you people? :)

Now, farting and burping are unavoidable facts of life. Of course, when I'm in friendly company, I generally would avoid farting, excusing myself to the bathroom or elsewhere. With burping, just keep it relatively discreet and no big deal.

But when you're with your SO at home, c'mon guys. Anything goes. For me, and I don't mean this kiddingly, but you know you've reached a certain level of intamicy if you and your partner can comfortably fart around each other. I'm serious. I'm not saying farting is a prerequisite to intimacy, or that because you fart around your partner you're intimate.

But it is a general acceptance of each other's humanity. I don't mind if my SO farts in bed, or on my leg while we're spooning. OK, it's not like a common occurance, but we don't treat it like some nasty socially repugnant offense. I'm not gonna pull the ol' Dutch Oven on her, but you feel much better once you get over this quirky little hurdle in the relationship.

Really.

....I burp....outloud.....around other people....and I'm a girl. I actually get complimented on them most of the time....I suppose such a large sound coming from someone so slight of stature is amusing to most of my friends. I've gotten pats on the back and even applause ...I usually smile and say, "My Mom taught me well." which she did.

Farting, well, I prefer to fart alone, but if one happens to come out when I'm with my roommate...he doesn't mind.......he usually just laughs.

And to anyone and everyone that get's uptight about bodily functions I say, "Everybody poops!".......it happens......yeah it can be disgusting.....but it happens.
