I find them hilarious but I get stern looks from the Mother in Law.

    I think it depends on the circumstances. Farting in the presence of close friends and family is fine, but farting in church or confined spaces like tube trains or lifts is a bit anti-social. It's probably not acceptable in most workplaces, either.

    I find farting amusing, I must admit. I was thinking earlier that we hadn't had a fart or poo thread for a few days.

    No, it's not rude. It's a perfectly natural bodily function which is as you say hilarious.

    When I was a kid, my (late) Grandad used to tightly clench my wrist, put a pained expression on his face, and let rip with farts that would these days be classed as chemical warfare.

    Me and my younger sister used to fall about the place, while my Mum (his adult daughter) used to go mental because of his "bad" behaviour.

    It obviously had a profound effect on us as both me and my sister - both now in our '50's - still enjoy a good rip-snorter in front of the family.

    I can't bear the f word, it's just so vulgar. They are called trumps in our house, much nicer!

    I find them hilarious too, I always have. Especially ones that smell so bad they turn your own stomach. Normally your own don't smell so bad.

    Well I think sometimes it is rude and uncalled for . When my old girlfriend used to trump in bed I always told her off. Its unladylike .
    I would probably be unhappy if a future partner enjoyed farting and belching .
    What has happened to good manners nowadays :confused:

    Neither OH or I could ever b e in a relationship with someone who objected to a bit of flatulence.

    We'd both burst from holding it in.

    Farting is only rude if you do it deliberately with the intent of offending someone.
