Who Agrees? This Wife Insists Farting in front of Your Partner Helps with Intimacy

A newlywed, Jessica Gentile, 30, has urged women to feel free to fart in the presence of their spouses, claiming it, in fact, makes for a more open and honest relationship.

According to DailyMail, Jessica, like most women, admits that she was quite embarrassed the first time the spontaneous bodily function let itself out in her then fiance’s presence, however, things changed on their third date.

She was mortified when she had ‘a bout of flatulence I couldn’t quite control took hold’. They’d gone out for Mexican food and were back at his apartment, cuddling on the couch, when she accidentally let one loose. Embarrassed, she went to the bathroom – where the situation got a whole lot worse.

Jessica ended up clogging his toilet, and spent the next ten minutes frantically trying to fix the flusher before her now-husband knocked on the door to check up on her.

With no other option, she admitted what had happened, bracing herself for the worst. But it didn’t come.

Her guy just laughed and called the super, even gentlemanly saving her more embarrassment by telling him it was his roommate who caused the mess. He also comforted her with a hug, clearly not repulsed enough to cancel plans of a fourth date.

She said, ‘While we hadn’t yet slept together, that moment forged an intimacy that was even greater,’ Jessica says. ‘I experienced a level of comfort and relief previously unknown in any romantic partnership.’

Now, seven years on, they’re recently married and joke openly about farts and other bathroom functions. They’ll tell each other, ‘I feel a big one coming on’, ‘You might not want to go in there for a while’, and ‘Don’t even try blaming it on the cat’ when either one stinks up the house.

Jessica explains that being open and honest makes a relationship healthier, and it’s silly to deny ‘the most basic component of human biology’. She adds;

‘It’s time to break down the stereotypes, stigmas, and shame that accompany gastrointestinal biology so we can normalize our bodies. And I’m now proud to do that, even if it’s just within the confines of my personal relationship. Shifting social standards have to start somewhere, why not at home?’

LOL! What do you think? Would you fart in your hubby’s presence?
