Are You Scared to Fart in Public?

I have a uncle who just isn't scared to do anything at all, and just last week we went to walmart to grab some pampers and powder for my baby and boy, out of nowhere I heard the most horrible sound with the most horrible smell,my uncle had cut a hole through his shorts, well maybe I'm over exaggerating, maybe that hole was already there, or not. All eyes nearby turned towards us. I just pretended like I wasn't with him, I gave him a funny look and walked off. Would you do this in public?

[i]Hi miracle, that is very funny..hehehe! ANyway, maybe he tried to control it and failed! ANyway, I always try to control farting in the public, I always caught myself controlling it and I am always successful thought..If I need to stop walking and pretend to just see something where I am, I will do it and I was doing it before..LOL![/i]

miraclefreebies ask any doctoror nurse, you cannot stop or start a fart, it is a human condition that just happens, so why make the poor sufferer more embarrassed than he already is. no I do not like\ to fart in public but cannot do a tinkers damn about it if I do, this just happens, like a sneeze, you dont will it or hold it in. it just happens so people deal with it.learn something about human beings anatomy and bodily functions.giving the poor guy a funny look is not going to help him at all, he did not do it intentionally. why cannot anyone believe learn this. ask your doctor if you do not believe me.

Farts are good!! Let 'em rip! LOL I try to not be loud, if I feel one coming on, and if I can move away (if it might stink), I will do that. I am not afraid to do it, as I don't care, everyone farts, even the president!! lOL I just try to be polite about it.

First of all, I know about bodily functions,including farting. It is normal and human to fart, but farting intentionally very loud and making jokes about it is practically rude. Right after he let it go, he chased behind me yelling "You Know You Want To Smell It,It Smells Good." It was obvious that he was enjoying himself. I don't have to ask a doctor or anyone else about farting.

Yes, I am too embarrased to fart in public, on purpose, but sometimes a little one can just slip out. You can try to do damage control.......sorry, I'm just laughing too hard. This is funny. Thanks for making me laugh. My husband has let out silent but deadly ones in public, then walked just far enough away to watch the people's disgust when they smell it. He is a cad for sure. But it is funny.

Hahahaha that was funny friend but farting is normal. Well if that's me I wouldn't fart in public intentionally cause it might smell. But if ever I had to go then I can't do anything about it. I guess I'd just walk fast away from the crowd so no one would notice that it's me hehe Ciao!

As much as possible I try to avoid doing it in public. I am afraid and too shy to do it in public.

No, I can't stand the pain of gas so if I have to boot I will release it slowly so that it will not be loud and walk away as quickly as possible without looking back.

I wouldn't say I'm scared to fart in public, I just would like to keep it in for the courtesy of others and I would be embarrased too... I have been in walmart a couple of times both times I was in the health and beauty section and an old lady would walk by and fart. The first time I was with my friend, we were both amazed and we were trying not to laugh...

Because it is a natural internal reaction to pass out and it can not be stopped but can be brought down to the minimum to release. Some people develops this problem in them and they can not control. In public we must try to avoid or may go away from the public sight to release or to minimize the sound and get released.

LMAO! {{Miracle}}, I would've done the same thing, OMG! I personally would NOT do that out in public, but you'd be surprised at how many men and women just let'r rip right out in public: when I used to work at Walmart, I'd be doing my thing stocking shelves or whatever my task was, checking people out, and THEN WHAM! the smell from someone "cuttin the cheese" would just about knock you over...phew!! but I did have to laugh at your experience, as it brought back a lot of memory's for me...LOL!
