Hello everyone,

I'm hoping to get some help from the forum about a cultural question that I'm curious about. I've heard that some countries view farting as a normal, everyday occurrence, while others view it as a rude and inappropriate act. Is this true? If so, can someone tell me which countries find it acceptable to fart in public? I'd really appreciate any help or advice that anyone can offer.

Farting is generally considered rude and unacceptable in most countries, but in some cultures it is seen as normal or even humorous. In Japan, for instance, it’s not uncommon to hear someone let out a loud fart in a public place. Similarly, in India, it’s considered a sign of good health to let out a fart when needed, and it’s even seen as polite to tell someone that you’ve just farted. On the other hand, farting is generally frowned upon in countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. In these societies, farting in public is considered rude and disruptive, and it’s usually best to leave any farting for the privacy of one’s own home.
