Why do men fart in bed?

He may go off like a fart soundboard but he still loves you!

Men fart in bed because they generally produce more gaseous product in a day than women (based on body mass and stomach/intestine size) and tend to release this gas when they are most relaxed. This happens to be when they are laying down in a relaxed and comfortable environment.

Women may feel that fluctuating while in bed is a disgusting habit, but generally a male produces more gas than women in any given day. Usually a male can pass gas when going to the toilet or releasing the build up while walking around, but it is when his body is stretched out and in a relaxed position when the most of the gas will be released.

So ladies try not to be too harsh on your male partner when next you are both lying in bed hand he tries to tear the sheets in half with his bowel movements. Just remember his stomach is like a big gas factory, trying to break down beautiful food that you have cooked for him. This is the same food that gives him the nourishment and energy necessary to tackle a hard day at work, so he can bring home his paycheck and buy all the pretty shiny things that he likes to shower you with and show his affections to you.

So in summary, when your husband or boyfriend farts in bed he is really showing you his affection!

Your man might have been doubling over in pain trying to keep the gas from releasing and to get up to go to the toilet would have been delaying the inevitable. His ass opera might have woken the whole house up if he played the toilet bowl like a ceramic tuba. The curvature of the toilet bowl has the best acoustic resonance to reverberate an amplified sound wave throughout your neighborhood. His end of day overture is probably going to sound like a 12 second fart changing tones 3 to 4 times.

Okay, okay, call him a lazy so and so, then send him off to the couch. But after you have calmed down keep your ears peeled because you will most likely hear him farting on the couch, trying to rip the backrest off with his wind, while he is lying down.

LOL... no excuses, I'll rather have him doubling over in pain trying to keep the gas for his private moments. I am serious, this hub is funny but in reality I have ended relationships because passing wind really puts me off more than any other male habit.

I suggest most men need to take a charcoal tablet prior to bed. It cuts down on both flutulation and the odor is absent. Most pharmacies carry these and are non prescriptive. I'm a pharmacy guy.

Awesome, I'll have to get some charcoal tablets. I didn't know they existed. I guess it's an embarrassing thing to ask your local pharmacist about remedies for flatulence.

Thanks for your comment Rygads but under Hubpages terms and conditions I can't allow it to be published here. Everyone has the right to comment but I can't allow derogatory terms labeled against fellow Hubbers especially since it is such generalizing on your part which you cannot back up with proof.

The average man farts 14 times a day. I've been with my boyfriend since November and it was like a week ago that he actually farted in bed and I giggled at him and was like, "What was that?" because I could tell he was holding back - it sounded so girly. It really does gross me out, but I know it hurts them when they have to do it and they're clenching so it doesn't come out. Unfortunately, now he does it all the time :( But, FORTUNATELY, they don't stink :)

So THATS why he'd always be farting around me during those moments when i never expected him to. I makes sense. He was excited so he farted. lol Good hub.

Thanks nmcquill, yep sometimes it does hurt to hold in the gas, but the bed is a bad place to let them go! Glad your BF doesn't stink in bed!

So happy women don't fart.

The main reason men pass more wind than women is that women do not keep their mouth shut long enough to build up the required pressure.
