Why is it that husbands ca'nt seem smell their own farts?



Recommended Posts

Why is it that husbands ca'nt seem smell their own farts? I was going to go watch some tv with him and enjoy the evening .... but no, not going to happen tonight. I all most past out when I walked into the room. I screamed... quick spray some air freshener. Then he gets all offended when I make him get up to do it. By gad... I can even smell it coming down the hall now. I think the older he gets the more he has gas.

Does anyone else have this to deal with?

I think I'm getting a head ache.

I do'nt believe this, he came into the office and ..... I think I'm going to be sick.

:biggrin::eek:

LOL! My husband has the.. uh.. sense to leave the room first when I'm hanging out with him. I don't think it's ever been so bad that opening a window for a couple minutes wouldn't fix it.

It's because they are men...pure and simple!!!

Of course, I think I have daffodils tucked away in my behind...I'm sure dh would disagree.

I will say though...slightly off topic....that since being banded in April...dh burps like it is his job. And generally doesn't even know that he is doing it. Like when we are intimate...he'll burp right in my face and not even recognize that he's done it...

Perhaps that is the case with the farting...they've become so used to it they don't even know that they are doing it anymore...????Not sure!

No one has brought up this point yet, so I will.

MEN fart BECAUSE THEY ENJOY IT. They like the sound, they like the smell and they love it when we (the women) gripe and throw a fit.

My hubby has told me before that he likes to get my feathers ruffled because 2 reasons:

1-he likes to see me pissy because he thinks it is cute

2-he thinks he will get some make-up play (if ya know what i mean)

So, just wanted to bring up these points. I truely believe this is why men do it so much more than women.

My DH is actually pretty considerate about it----thankfully. If he walks around lighting all of my candles, I know!! Otherwise the only time they get lit is by me!

Or we can be driving down the road, all is well, and suddenly at 65mph or so, he rolls the window down---when I freak out, he simply tells me "You'll prefer this!" He is usually right!!!!

Unfortunately I think it has to do with several issues, the biggest of which is simple aging! Our systems change--my gosh to be around my inlaws----sounds like a symphony some times!!!

I have also went to cooking with more fresh vegetables, and more legumes for the health aspect, and it has results!!!

All I can say.....crazycat, is at least he is home farting in front of your TV, rather than out at a bar, or at least he is simply assaulting your sense of smell, as opposed to assaulting you.

Not much comfort to your gagging self----but worth a thought!!!

When it gets REALLY bad--grab a small bit of mentholatum, or Vicks, and rub a teeny tiny bit under your nose, not a big smear--it will mask any odor! I learned this from a SIL who used to work in a nursing home, and have to clean up after residents who failed to make it to the bathroom. If it can mask the real deal, it should work for the gas by products!!!

I can't believe I'm going to admit this, but I'm the Farter in my relationship!! My boyfriend and I live together and he gets serenaded by my butt at least a few times a week. He thinks it hilarious. I guess I'm not the most ladylike woman in the world, but we both seem to think it's hilarious. I can fart way louder and longer than him and it drives him crazy that i'm better at than he is.

Well although most men take great pride in farting to irritate us. I have to tell you that there have been studies where it has been proven that women's farts stink more than mens. I have to agree with that study. Only difference, most women, excluding Brandy, of course, are discreet about farting infront of other people including their husbands. he...he...

at least it's coming out of his mouth and not his ass.... not that my dh does that either, but ... i guess it couldbe worse.....

My husband tends to fart a lot and these are usually the silent but deadly kind. He comes from a gassy family. After spending a weekend with them I referred to them as the House of Methane. They fell about themselves laughing.

Now that I am old and gassy I am able to exact my revenge. Yep, now I often win at the Green and company Fart Wars. I love the look of shock and awe that I see in my mate's face. I tell him not to be afraid, that they are only love farts.

Bwahaha! Good idea, grrl. I could harvest them farts from all those travellers suffering from third world revenge, put 'em in aerosol cans, and sell them. They would make for a much more original gift than those sucky stuffed bears.

And a real nice gift for yer boss, too. LOL Surprise him/her at a board (bored) meeting with his own personal luv fart.< /p>

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
