I was homeschooled previously with a small group of other children and we fart in class all the time.
Now I’m in public school for high school and no one is farting. I was very sheltered and public school is like a whole new world for me, so I don’t know what the norms are. I’ve been holding it in but my stomach hurts and it leaks out anyway.
I don’t understand how there are so many more people in high school and yet zero farts…

Am I preganate?
People used to when I was at school 15 years ago.
Somewhat unrelated, but I do find it funny that farts aren’t considered acceptable, but sneezes and coughs are. Like, farts have an extra barrier in the form of your clothing (assuming you’re not at a nudist colony or bathhouse) and won’t make other people sick. I guess it’s just because they’re stinky.
I vote to normalize farting with an “excuse me”, and saying “bless you” to people when they fart.
It’s much easier to suppress farting than the involuntary reflexes of coughing and sneezing.
Except while sneezing and coughing.
It’s evolutionary. Farts smell like shits. People and animal avoid shits (or anything emitting H2S) because it’s wired in their brain to do so.
I know, right! Sneezes even spread diseases and stuff, yet farts get a bad reputation
You just need some practice farting quietly.
The sound is much less important than the smell.
“You smelled it you dealt it” kept everyone quite when I was in school so long as there is plausible deniability for the source.
if no one can hear you fart, no one knows who is responsible
In space, no one can hear you fart
The people sitting next to me would know.
well, you have to learn to employ different techniques like crop dusting

no one knows who is responsible
That’s not correct. We all know that first to smell it, dealt it.
Such is the jurisprudence, yes.
guilty dog barks first
Homeschool kids are so weird LoL.
may i recommend to you the Cough of ObfuscationTM. Strategically timed coughs can cover all manner of untimely and inconvenient noises produced by the body. It’s also useful it public toilet stalls.
It maybe related to you BEANS consumption
This is satire, right? I want to believe homeschooled kids are not as bad as they are often pictured
Homeschooled kids are bad because they fart?
it’s a common argument against homeschooling that kids who have no exposure to peers in a school setting end up with poor social skills. unless this post is satire, which I am like 99% sure it must be, this seems to be a case of that
edit: I’m in no way saying it’s the strongest or the most important argument against homeschooling
More like skill issue. Learn how to clench your buttocks.
Homeschool survivor here. It’s that bad.
It’s a troll post. Nothing more.
Reading these comments… I’d like to add to the discussion, that farting being ‘unacceptable’ is not a cultural universal, globally, and it’s amusing to me how strongly some people think it is.
It sounds like you need a change of diet …
Your homeschool diet has a lot to do with it.
What do you think a homeschool diet is like? I’m imagining high in veggies, low meat, maybe organic… Maybe lots of beans.
Everyone does, they’re just quiet about it.
op is doing the lemmy no-farting challenge
Avert your eyes children. He may take on other forms!
