If I hear someone on the phone in a public restroom I try to rip ass as loud as possible.

I'm not stuck in here with you, you're stuck in here with me.

I mean I try not to in public but if someone else does it, it just about makes my day, farts are so funny

I have IBS so if I want to go anywhere I have to deal with the fact that I may end up making lots of noise in a public toilet. In my forties I’m pretty desensitized about it now. Everybody poops.

No, I'm never embarrassed by my singing.

Yes. I wonder, though, why? What conditioned me this way? Also, in some societies, such as Japan, concealing toilet sounds is encrouaged by those otohime devices in public bathrooms.

shouldn't this be in !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world ? :P

I think they're funny and I'm tired of pretending they're not.

I only shit at home or in the woods. I hate walking into a public restroom and knowing a microscopic piece of another mans colon is now in my nose.

I feel like no longer caring if strangers can hear you poop is a big part of growing up. Not to say I've reached that point.

Everybody poops as they say. The bathroom is the socially acceptable place for farts imo.

I used to clench up in public bathrooms if there was anyone else in the bathroom.

Now I just let 'er rip. Even if I know it's gonna be loud and funky.

No, that's how I assert dominance.

No. Nature isn't embarassing.

I have been embarrassed when I shat my pants from drinking too much though.

Not even a little.

No, the sound of a bath being filled doesn’t bother me.

No. Y'all know what goes on in there. If you don't, you're the one who should be embarrassed.

I used too but I remember it’s the shit room. You better be grunting and farting

Let it rip

I think the, uh, acoustics, are mostly a necessary evil. The bowl has to accommodate a ton of water splashing around without going everywhere, and ideally also not go out of its way to trap any doodoo. That can't just be any old shape.

I thought the whole point was to piss as loud as possible to assert dominance?

Yeah. I tell my BF to go hang out in the living room or something. Like give me some privacy k? Ok thx😆👋

In the bathroom, no. Outside the bathroom, yes.

Silent bathrooms are the fucking worst. When you go in, have to stand right next to some guy at a urinal, and you both can hear exactly how much piss is happening, or when it's not happening. Nothing shrivels up my bladders ability to expend faster than complete silence and the attention of a stranger.

Also once I was visiting a foreign country and found a girl on tinder, we were fuck buddies for the duration. She stayed over one night, and I had to shit in the morning. With her sitting on the bed quietly scrolling her phone like 5 feet away. It was awful. Felt like I couldn't fart, could barely get anything out, my diet had been bad so it was going to be a difficult poo anyway. It was awful.

But out in public, whenever I accidentally fart, or on purpose fart but I intended it to be silent, I just laugh immediately afterwards. If I think it's funny, then it's not awkward.

No, because I deploy The Cough of Obfuscation!

If anyone out there is self conscious about this, remember: you should only be embarrassed by sounds that come out of your mouth when in the bathroom. If you're grunting and sighing in the stall you need immediate medical attention or a gag. Pull it together

I try and find the perfect position to make my farts resonate for maximum woyoyoyo effect.

I feel like this is a measurable fact rather than an opinion.

Usually no, but I'm dealing with cyclospora right now and I gotta say, the sounds are unpleasant.

I moan as I smear my feces on the stall walls. don't tempt me to take it further...

Man, I used to teach and it was a shared bathroom between faculty and students.

No student could ever know I poop. It was a difficult facade to maintain.

that awkward moment when a person you know (not friend otherwise i'd hold or gtfo to next floor) and you walk in and you both need to poop. .The restroom only has 2 toilet stalls side by side..

So what you do? If its a crowded place where many people come in and use the restroom then youre ok: you hope for the sound of people talking + water faucet sound to "suppress" your fart sound. .

What if it is not crowded? Well shit, then we are in a tugg of war. I just hope the initial noise is not loud.

I get embarrassed when I’m pooing in a public stall and I fart really loud and then .. start giggling. I’m a grown ass man for crying out loud!!!

It depends on the context. If I'm home alone I'm likely to be somewhere around relieved to neutral to laughter, because sometimes I find it impossible to be mature about it.

Making such noises in public is a different matter. Embarrassment, first or second hand, would tend to override any and all other reactions.

Also, the fear of what I might be about to breathe in after other people's.

Nope. At some point you gotta accept your farts.

Yes. We must be ashamed of our filth and all things we do without wearing pants and cower from the glare of God lest he drown us like all the others.

Depends where the noises happen.

I let that shit rip. You're in a bathroom, grow up.
