Some people do it some people don’t. Farting in front of others is a big deal for some people like me but one of my best friends can fart in front of her boyfriend constantly. Here are the reasons why I cannot simply execute the farting mission.
- I don’t want to see his reaction when I rip a loud one or let out a silent but deadly. It is too risky to see his reaction. He farted in front of me several times, but they are silent killers rather than noisemakers. His reaction to his smelly farts is to giggle and smirk. I find it funny but the stench, not so much.
- I try to be classy and fit into gender norms of being a lady, so I don’t fart in front of most people unless it is my mom. My mom hears me rip loud ones and we laugh about it, but I am not ready to share that experience with my boyfriend.
- Some things are better left un-smelled. I want to keep some things about me a mystery for as long as possible, and farts are one of them. I don’t want it to change the status of our intimacy. I don’t want him to think of me as a gross, smelly savage rather than a beauty who cares about him.
- It is so new that it could change the dynamic of things. Next thing I know he could pee or go number two with the door open and nobody wants that. I don’t want to get too comfortable so he changes his mind about me.
Farts from a female are different than a male because of gender rules and pressure of being a classy lady. I haven’t farted in front of my new boyfriend, but I am sure that eventually one day I will let one slip. Hopefully it won’t be deadly.
