Poll question: Do you pass gas or burp in front of your SO?
Are you at the point in your relationship that you feel comfortable enough to be human in front of your Sig Other?

Do you fart?
Do you burp?

1. It took 2 years before my hubby would fart in front of me...
He would rush off to the bathroom and hit the fan. He'd come out about 15 seconds later. I finally told him, I know what you are doing in there, you are going to hurt yourself one day rushing off to the can like that.

4. Exactly!
And if you can't laugh at words like "poop", "fart", "butt" or "ass" then you are entirely too not silly!

16. Slogan seen on a sewage plant employee's t-shirt...
"Your shit is my bread and butter."

Your post reminded me of that. :)

5. It isn't a matter of being comfortable to me, it's a matter of
courtesy - yes, I know just one of my personality quirks. It actually is a family joke, my kids and husband tease me about it, I know it's weird.

11. Your words could be ..
my wife's. Nothing like having a lovely conversation with your
lover whilst they're taking a shit in the bathroom. Plop Plop.

Its a level of comfort. Where i get shit, is for farting in bed.
Heck, bed is the *PLACE* to fart, as it captures the nuances and
the joices beneath the blankets to be released strategically using
feet to lift various covers for air circulation.

On such a moment recently, i got an upset half-asleep face in front
of mine telling me it was impolite to fart in bed, and that she
wished sometimes we were girlfriend an boy friend, so that i'd
shag more and fart less.

Hmmm... :-)

6. Where we used to live we had a half bath in our bedroom...
I don't think I ever shut that thing while I was on the toilet. I just don't care. He doesn't either.

10. We have no inhibitions when it comes to farts around each other
My farts don't bother him at all. Sometimes my burps do if they're exceptionally exaggerated and frequent. My dad always used to say if there was ever a burping contest I'd win.

17. Yes with an explanation
I do not pass gas in front of anyone. I don't burp on purpose. If I do burp, I always say "excuse me," because I'm a gentleman!

On the other hand, my ex-wife used to come into the bathroom while I was showering and do her business at the toilet...something I never quite got comfortable with as I'm a pretty private person when it comes to a bathroom and the activities associated with it.

19. Oh, yeah.
On the days we have beans, or cabbage, etc., our house sounds like a damned organ recital. :P
