Why do we like the smell of our own farts, but find other peoples farts disgusting? What's the evolutionary reason for it?

>> No.12747004

Oh, and also, some people actually do like the smell of other peoples farts. Is the reason for that some kind of evolutionary advantage or are they just sick?

I don't think you're okay, man.
I never like the smell of my own farts. But I guess your own are expected, so it's not that bad for your brain. Kinda like tickling yourself.

Related to the immune system.
The aroma bouquet from your own farts synch perfectly with your immune system, and so your brain do not add a repulsive filter on the smell.

This is my hypothesis that if you do shit enemas with someone else, both of you would not find anything wrong with the smells of the other's farts since you synchronised yourselves.

you use fart scent to determine whether your potential mate has a healthy body
you don't want to fuck yourself. therefor you're not your potential mate. therefor the selection system to find your own farts repulsive does not exist

I like the smell of

My fart
My inner thigh near balls

Farts are tolerable, they're not gag inducing or repulsive, just pleasant
My inner thigh smell though, I pass a finger through and get a good whiff once in awhile

My farts sometimes smell of mildly burnt popcorn
Other times, like ethanol phenoxy
Often like hydrogen sulfide, or pungent taint of butyric acid
Even 2-Nonenal, like a clean nursing home, just less acrid
All in all it is my own chemicals factory.
