An age old question

Question for y'all:
At what age do you stop caring if you loudly fart into the toilet bowl in a public restroom?

Add on question...is there a gender difference, too?

Are you kidding? I've ALWAYS tried to fart loudly in the toiled bowl, ESPECIALLY in a public restroom! Sometimes, if I can't work up a genuine fart, I'll do a hand-on-forearm substitute just for the sake of it! Sheesh.

(I...guess this pretty much answers the gender difference question, too.)

Hmmm, is there an age threshold upon which things like that are suddenly deemed acceptable?

Not me.

Let 'er rip.

Oh, and smile broadly when you exit the stall.

Personally, I will contort my body into whatever position will prevent a nasty air explosion. I do this for 2 reasons: 1.) To keep from embarrasing myself and 2.) To prevent myself from laughing which inevitably causes little fartlets to occur with each chuckle. I'm not very mature.

I'm with Tess on this one...

I guess, on further thought, my question should have also included this: at what age are you mature enough to keep yourself from laughing if you hear someone else fart in the public bathroom??

I know it is hard for me to not laugh!!!

In response to the first question the answer is never. I also beleive there is an unwritten rule that the non-farting party should wrap up their business quickly to allow the farting party privacy to finish their business.

Anyone who laughs at the farter is just plain mean. Kirsten loses any points she earned in her "I'm a good person at the airport" post.

Hey! I didn't say that I *DO* laugh. I said it's hard not to!
