ColeHW34 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Farting mainly because most of the time my farts don't stink as long as I avoid dairy, beans, and high sulfur content foods. Link to post Share on other sites
PoeciMeta Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 It's possible to learn how to burp and to use that to speak if your vocal cords are unavailable. Link to post Share on other sites

If you insist x) It's a great way for people who've had a tracheotomy to speak again. The burping sound is just the oesophagus vibrating, and with enough training, it can be a replacement for the vibration of the vocal cords. As for the practical part, for getting air in your stomach, you have to hold your breath (like you'd naturally do with your tongue, you know, you hold the back of it against your pharynx), contract your diaphragm as if for inhaling normally, and if done right, the air should flow through the oesophagus instead. Just, mind what you eat before trying that. Edit: I think that sums up my opinion, that burping is the least gross of the four~ Link to post Share on other sites

dragonfire42 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I think both burps and farts are funny (as long as I don't do it when anyone else notices - but I'm very good at doing both silently (when I want to) and without odors). Never tried partnered sex and would sooner die than try it. I've tried masturbating a few times just to see what it's like, but I always get bored before I feel anything.

Steve81 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I read that as crudité ... Here I am with my carrot baton and a pot of hummus, in a room whose air is made putrid with all this burping and farting! Link to post Share on other sites

Like burping after a meal in America isn't okay but it is in China. Where as masturbating is wrong everywhere (at least where I have heard of ) Link to post Share on other sites

His whole voice box had been removed and he had a hole in his neck to breathe. He would cover the hole when he wanted to speak. His speech was easy to understand. Link to post Share on other sites
