I must agree that it isn't only a man's thing. More women seem to be getting into the sport too. I have never heard anybody fart as well as my sister can. Nobody, and that means nobobdy will ever hear me fart. I don't fart, and you can't make me.
Robyn, of the prissy class
Simon you cheeky sod
Our two think its hilarious too, but judging by their father I dont think they will grow out of it, - at least Lew outgrew fluffing the sheets
Jessika,
It all started with the Pagans! Way way back when they were roasting emu's as a sacrafice to the penis God........a guy names Harry had his kid pull his right hand glove off. When the kid pulled, the pagan farted......hence (pull my finger ) Anyways, it all got out of hand from there and even progressed to sitting on someones face and farting. We always sleep with the dog in the room and I blame it on her so I have no problem other than my wife asking if I've been eating dog food
Jesika,
Sorry dear, but I really don't know what to tell you. My son is 11 and he and his buds think it's funny too, although he doesn't sound as obsessed with it as your son. At one time he was tho so perhaps your son's delight in it will lessen a little as he grows. In the meantime, I guess just try to pick your battles...if you know you can't stop him completely, try to work it in such a way that he only does it say in his room? Maybe he can have all the "gas wars" (LOL at that term btw) he wants in his room, just not in front of you. But I agree with everyone else that it's a typical boy thing...and one many of them NEVER outgrow!
Robyn, your post made me LOL. You sound JUST like my sister (she's gonna KILL me!); I don't think ANYONE in the universe has ever heard her cut loose; in fact, I'm a little concerned about her internal structure now, as that kind of lifelong 'repression' just can't be healthy!

Edited to add: Fluffing the bed sheets?? Not in my bed!!!!

Well, were all fartaholics in our family. In fact, little boys are very similar to farts when you think about it. Why? Well, your own are quite sweet but everyone elses stink!
Englishman, who will even fart going through a car wash.
Jes, yes, I agree with you when they do it for kicks especially around meal times or when there's food around.
One of these days they will push to hard and more than a smelly air will be in their pants!

I totally understand. When I was younger and living at home, my twin brothers used to sit around the house and have farting and burping contests. (Who could "blow" the loudest or stinkiest. Ugh. ) I never understood it. Then I grew up and married my first husband. He just sat around with his fraternity brothers and did the same thing. I used to think "boys will be boys." Now with Neil, I realize there are gentlemen out there. Thank God he's not a farter! I know he probably is, but at least he never does it around me! (He's gonna kill me for sharing like this! LOL!)
Tracy and Robyn, I'm with you ladies! I would be mortified if anyone heard me do anything of the sort!
Andi - of the prissy class!

LOL Dana. You sound just like my sister who is always inviting me to "just let 'er rip".
Love ya,
Robyn
I never thought I would admit to being "prissy", but in this situation I guess I am.
Damn I wish you guys were telling me this too will "pass" (lol), but it seems like it will linger on. Oh well, I have to figure out something that makes us all happy.
