Fart question

[SuaSponte]

When you hold a fart in, so as not to cause offense, where does the methane and other gases go?

Whack-a-Mole, wouldn't you think the body won't allow anything to backtrack through the intestines like that?

[LolaBaby]

...and people think Spontaneous Human Combustion is a myth.:rolleyes: :D

Erp...I guess I need smiley faces for the humor impaired ;) (even if it wasn't very funny)

There are differences in opinion on this one. Certainly, people have believed for centuries that retaining flatulence is bad for the health. Emperor Claudius even passed a law legalizing farting at banquets out of concern for people's health. There was a widespread belief that a person could be poisoned or catch a disease by retaining farts. Doctors I have spoken to recently have told me that there is no particular harm in holding in farts. Farts will not poison you; they are a natural component of your intestinal contents. The worst thing that can happen is that you may get a stomach ache from the gas pressure. But one doctor suggested that pathological distention of the bowel could result if a person holds in farts too much. And Dr. P. said that the effort involved in retaining flatulence can cause hemorrhoids.

It's a tough question for me to answer seriously, because I have a dog and an infant son to handily blame it on. :D :cool:

I was going to advise you to use smilies if you were joking, but it doesn't even matter, I find this statement highly offensive even as a joke.

So how long is your mommy letting you stay on the computer today?

:rolleyes:

[tspallone]

Seriously though, I think it's just held in your lower intensine until it builds up further.

Veterans of this practice can do it almost without thought and then, while urinating, are rewarded with an extra enthusiastic expulsion of poor air.

As far as "the other thing", don't get me wrong, it doesn't deter me from taking care of business ladies. Just keeping the lines of communication open. If we, as men, didn't tell you, you wouldn't know. Thank you.

[tspallone]

I guess I put this thread off-track.

But, you know from what I speak, don'tcha fellas?

Holding in gas is just down-right PAINFUL.

I say - don't do it. Let it fly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quoted from Tspallone:

<<That's why Vaginas smell so bad!!!!!

1. You're hanging out with skanky women
2. You have a very distant knowledge of anatomy
3. Yeah, Opal, hi, whatever
4. You're looking for a pit session
5. You are truly clueless, and only a hammer can help
6. I think you meant to write "on a WOMAN", in any case you're beyond help and you're setting our cause backward (fighting ignorance) with every keystroke. Go kiss a girl or get deeply involved in some prime-time distraction.

This has gotten out of hand.
