Relieving yourself in front of your partner? A sign that the relationship will last
There are many keys to keeping your relationship happy and healthy, and not always what you think…
Farting in front of your partner, according to a 2016 MIC survey, is an essential step in developing a healthy relationship. 51% of respondents say they have farted in front of their partner in six months or less of dating, 22.4% after just a few weeks of dating, and 29% between two and six months.
Passing gas is an integral part of a couple’s intimate life. While humor and ease are present in the relationship, most respondents explained that farting was in no way a problem.
No shame, just pleasure
For marriage counselor, psychologist, and sexologist Shannon Chavez, farting can be a sign of “adventurous” sexual relationships. “A rich sex life can come from partners that aren't ashamed of their bodies or their actions, and are therefore more likely to enjoy different types of stimulation and indulge without inhibition, fears or insecurities”, she told HuffPost.
Author Leah Decesare, for her part, talks about acceptance of each other and honesty between partners when it comes to indulging in a little flatulence. The bond of trust is strengthened.
