I can't believe I stumbled across this discussion! It's nice to get away from the "Theology" threads once in a while.  I must say I changed quite a bit in my thinking from a single person to a married one. Those who have never married and say they never would ___________ (fill in the blank), well....they may one day be surprised.

It isn't the necessity of bodily functions that disturbs me--it is the fact that people seem to need to talk about it on a public forum. 
Personally, I do not care if someone is the island of Krakatoa when it comes to such things, but I do not want to hear about it. If they want to talk about it with their spouse, that is fine--I just don't understand discussing it here. 
I agree with you, Kate!
Just because some wives/girlfriends here think their husband's/boyfriend's bodily function noises are endearing or funny or just because they love him so much they have learned to live with it, doesn't mean everyone else on earth wants to hear about it in detail and will be more accepting of it just because they are. Some of us just don't find it to be acceptable behavior.
Call me old-fashioned, but I am with you two. This thread totally blew me away. (No pun intended!)

I mean really, how hard is it to step away from your girlfriend/wife and into the other room for that one moment? 10 steps maybe? Oh no! Not 10 steps! You might actually have to... get up.
It's nice if you have some kind of warning. Speaking for myself, and some others, we don't. It happens without any kind of advance notice. Now, you could either get all embarrassed or disgusted, or you could just get on with your life and worry about more important things.

Like I said earlier, accidents are acceptable, and understandable, but when my husband acts like a he-ape. I grab my pillow head for sofa.

PS, for a very odd reason, and having done community theatre, that made such sense to me, and now I am scared.

LOL! THis thread is funny. Who knew a thread about farts could generate 4 pages?
You never worked in dinner theatre, did you, Trishy? If you had you wouldn't need to ask 
Wes! You changed your name *and* your avvy--I didn't recognize you for a minute!

A general observation:
Single/Dating - open farting is frowned upon and does not occur.
Married - open farting is the norm and its acceptance and desirability is half and half? half say it is funny and play games around it to make it less awkward. or they lovingly forgive and allow it to make it more convenient for their spouse. the other half more or less tolerates it, but does not like it.
Conclusion?:
Farting is a regular occurence in marriage and it is how you deal with it and your perception that matters...?

If he holds your head under the covers once, to be funny, that is one thing. Once he realizes that you don't see the humor in it but does it again anyway, well that is the topic of a whole new thread!!!
Let me think: what dumb joke does your significant other keep repeating, even though they are the ONLY one laughing?

Never! Wow, I think I'd be tempted to strangle him if he tried that. That would annoy me greatly.

Once my husband tries something and finds that I don't think it's funny, he doesn't keep trying it. (I, on the other hand, sometimes am a little dense in that apartment, but he's very sensitive about my feelings.)

I was just joking, my husband would be a dead man, if he tried it even once. My husband, breaking wind thinking it is somehow a mating ritual, is the only thing that he does that irrtates me. That is why he does it, sort of a passive aggressive behavior. Oh, goodness I am psycoanylizing flatuance in marriage.

Ok, Honestly I think that is gross. I understand that some people feel this is an expression of being totally trusting and comfortable in front of your partner, but to me it is just rude. I have been married for 8 years now and I would never openly fart in front of my husband and I hope he never does in front of me! I never leave the bathroom door open and I don't let him see me when I am doing a facial mask!! I'm not a prude it's just that I think no matter how long you have been with somebody, you should always strive to be your best. Of course some things become more comfortable over time but so much of it becomes comfortable why not leave some of it still a mystery? I want to impress my husband everyday, I want him to all feel that I am making an effort to impress him because I love him. I don;t want him to ever feel like I am so comfortable in our relationship that I don't have to impress him anymore (or him me!)

Personally...I think that once a man has seen a woman give birth, nothing else is that "gross". If he can handle watching child birth, a gas problem is NUTHIN!!!!!! Everyone does it and we shouldn't be afraid of it! If it is in an inappropriate place then control is key. But at home...let it rip!!!!!! lol

Hmmmm....lessee: end result of giving birth= baby; end result of flatulence=less than pleasant air to breathe.
I'd rather watch someone give birth, thanks.

I would have to agree with that...I do not think that giving birth is gross, and yes, I have seen some videos of women giving birth. It's awesome.

Is there a third choice?
