I have been friends with my husband since grade school all the way through high school. I graduated in 1998 and he graduated in 1999. We both went off to college and stayed friends and later we realized our friendship was more than that and we started dating in 2007 and just got married January 18, 2013. Not one time have I ever burped or farted in front of him. I won’t even use the bathroom in front of him. He doesn’t do any of those things in front of me. I didn’t say he couldn’t, but I’m sure he doesn’t feel like he should since I am weird about it.
Some of my friends and my sister in law are totally opposite, they burp and fart really loud. they use the bathroom in front of them and even do it around my parents and family. Like its funny. I just think its so disgusting.
I want to know what you guys think about their ladies doing it?
she belches like a high school boy, farts like a cow and swears like a sailor. i overlook these things because she must have some redeeming qualities somewhere.
First: Interesting Thread Title/Board Name combination
Second: Pepper Mill will burp in front of me, but she’ll retreat for anything else, and always has. I’ve heard of couples who will use the toilet while their SO is in the bathroom doing something else, but we’ve never done it, and find it kinda gross.
The infamous performer Le Petomane did a series of fart impressions as part of his act. The fart of the bride on her wedding night: inaudible. A week later: two yards of canvas. Says it all, really.
After this many years together we have seen (and smelled) each other at our worst, whether it is one nursing the other through food poisoning, the flu, post-surgical recovery, or just the aftermath of a a big mid-winter chili dinner. The odd fart or belch has to be something spectacular to make it to the marital radar, and then is more likely to be the source of amusement than disgust. Helps if you keep your inner 10-year-old alive.
I am pretty grossed out by burping and farting even when I’m by myself. It’s not that I don’t do it around my husband, I just try to conceal it because I am embarrassed.
We pee in front of each other, too, but not poop, because poop is just nasty.
When we were dating, my future wife claimed she could do the ABCs in a single belch. She ripped a good long one to demonstrate. We’ve been married a long time now and she has never come through on her claim. Is that grounds for divorce?
As far as I know she has never farted in her life and may not even have a digestive system as we know it but her feet could knock a bird out of a tree at 100 feet.
My wife doesn’t fart, but for some reason the cat sometimes has violent gas if the two are in the same room together. At least, that’s her explanation.
But…but…how do you have farting/belching contests if you can’t fart and belch in front of each other?!? (Not that I ever fart or belch - my cat has some serious digestive issues, though.)
Women do not fart, belch or snore; therefore, we must bitch or else we will explode.

I tend to hold back, mostly because I’m not married so I don’t have any sort of level of comfort about that sort of bodily function in front of men. However, I adore farting and in general, think it’s funny – apparently, I have the sense of humor of a 10-year-old boy. I once dated a guy for quite a while (I thought we were at that comfort level), who would act all outraged and disgusted if I let one rip in front of him. He had a Madonna/Whore complex going so I think it disturbed his image of me as some sort of pristine pure angel of light and goodness. Which encouraged me to do keep doing it.
I’ve mentioned this on the board before but back when my wife and I were merely dating we woke up one morning after drinking heavily and I stunk up the room with a dangerously awful bit of flatulence. In retaliation, she sat on my head and farted. That’s when I realized that I loved her.
