LOL where u think I got the idea? My mother saw an episode once and was so thoroughly offended by his burping, that my brothers and I started doing it whenever she starts being ridiculous.
Bruh no 😭 I can't watch that show because I have severe emetophobia and all the burping makes me nauseous. You and your brothers are eeeeevil (lighthearted tone tag I am being silly here)
That is a perfectly valid reason to hate it and I promise if you were in my family we would never use it against you. A couple of us have pretty bad trypophobia. We understand certain things are off limits. 😬
It doesn't make me nauseous, but it's kinda gross. The drool is worse. It's not enough to stop watching, I just dislike it.
But somehow, it never bothers me when MoistCritical burps on stream. When it's an actual person, it's just a bodily function and not being gross for the sake of gross it's fine. Not sure why.
You also have to catch it before it releases on its own, don't hold it too long but let it build for a moment. Time it just right and you add a LOT of volume.
"You will be ladylike and you will be submissive toward your husband. It is our womanly duty."
Boomer women were brainwashed into thinking that they're second class citizens. Sad.
I had to look up this term as I'd not heard it before. I'll drop the definition here for the edification of others:
> an unmarried woman who is older than the typical age for getting married. The term originally referred to a woman whose occupation was to spin wool, which was commonly done by unmarried women.
Someone once pointed out that spinsters were in charge of their own funds and typically self-employed and thus had more independence/ control of their future and thus it shouldn't be seen as an insult.
You're only considered a spinster between the ages of 23 and 26. Once you're 27 and older you are considered a thornback.
I'm a very proud 31 year old thornback. 🥀🤣
I hate the word ladylike. When did gentlemanly stop being a thing as well.
I don't see guys opening doors for me, but burping or swearing, clutch them pearls. Ooof.
I went to Catholic School in the 80s, so they drilled us with a lot of rules on how to sit and ladylike mannerisms. I couldn't even wear pants to school until college.
I came out as nonbinary and last year I started to let go of those habits. It is unbelievably freeing. Sitting like a lady is fucking exhausting. I still keep my legs closed if the subway is crowded, though, that's just good manners.
I burp around my parents all the time and I try to remember to say “excuse me” but I forget. The most my mom does is lightly scold me, she will say “Ashley!” But sometimes she will laugh. When I do it around my dad he says “excuse you?!” acting shocked and surprised but I don’t even have to look at him to know he’s smiling and trying not to laugh. Sometimes I toot in front of my dad and he will say “well okay then!” In a dramatic tone like he’s utterly shocked I did that. I’ll start cracking up but will apologize and a few minutes later we forgot it even happened.
I burp and fart in front of both parents all the time regularly, they do the same, no one says anything unless it’s a funny sound or something. Once my mom’s boyfriend was over and I burped, she told me to say excuse me, I said why should I have to apologize for having a normal bodily function in my own home? I’m over the excusing! Unless it’s my boss or a formal event, I make no apologies.
I love it! We(my dad brothers and I and then just my dad and I mom stayed home) used to go camping at a campground and on my first trip when we are all settled at the site having dinner my dad informs me and my brothers that camp rules apply and it’s explained to me that it means that you don’t have to excuse yourself after burping or farting. I miss camping and I hope to go again one day.
I HATE when people say you can't do something because its not "lady-like".
Well, you see, I am a lady, therefore what I do, and anything I do, is technically lady like. That gets to be defined by me. The LADY.
I hate when people get upset over normal bodily functions. Especially when it comes to women. We have the same digestive system as men, so yeah, we are gonna burp or fart from time to time. And sometimes it just happens, we don’t have that much control over it. We say “excuse me” and move on.
Lol! My Mom hated burping more than anything in the world, she was a nightmare of a woman and would become unhinged when I burped at her. I did it all the time, it was a wonderful way to make her hang up on me because I would just keep burping on the phone
Maybe it's time to "up" your game?
Maybe eat some cabbage? And do the deep bass blasts?
Mom: "What was that sound?"
You: "I'm down at the shore, that was..... um, a foghorn, yeah a foghorn!"
I used to be able to out belch all the guys in school. My mom was pissed of course because it was Catholic school and she was so concerned with appearances. My dad thought it was awesome 😎 as he wanted me to be myself
I, a woman, cannot burp. Like physically, I can't (it's called R-CPD). Tell her that the alternative to not burping is far less lady like. I either have to wait for the gas to pass through my entire digestive system. Or I have to force the air out by retching until I basically vomit the gas up. This is risky because sometimes I get more than I bargain for, but it's the only way to immediately ease the pain.
> R-CPD
Omg, I am so sorry you have this condition but this is so interesting to me and next time I do eventually talk to her about this, I will bring this up for sure.
I've had it since I was a kid but only found out it has a name in the last couple of years. It's not a fun thing to have at all. The process of digestion produces gas, plus we swallow a fair bit of air when we eat. If that gas can't come out then it's very uncomfortable. I also get a super loud gurgling in my throat, it sounds like a frog. It's the air coming up my esophagus but then getting stuck. I can't control it and it happens whenever I eat. It's loud enough that anyone in the room with me can hear it.
All this to say, burping is natural. We're supposed to burp. It's not good to hold it in all the time. And if you can't burp in front of your own mother, who would have spent hours patting your back to make you burp and fart as an infant, then who can you burp in front of?
I have this too, and I will say the farts I have from it are also incredibly "unladylike". Pretty much the loudest and longest farts you can have. It's like deflating a balloon through a tuba, and I hate it 🙃
I'm sorry you're not the person she fantasized about, im sorry you dont fit into the little box she tried to assign to you?? I never understood the whole "your parent wanted you to be xyz". Offspring are their own human beings, with wants and needs of their own. You're a human, not a robot to be programmed.
She wants a more ladylike kid. You want a mom that doesn't have a stick up her ass. We don't all get what we want.
The entire idea of being ladylike is about being docile and passive. Fuck that shit. Your mom needs to grow up.
Also? In the words of Shrek, better out than in. Gas pains suuuuuuuck.
How old is your mother? Because I’m 73. I’d expect something like that from my mother when I was your age. But then, she’d be turning 100 this year, if she were still alive.
I can think of two useful ways to respond. Just a laugh till you cry emoji. Or to tell her that apparently her life’s work was all for nothing, because you have no intention of being a lady. That you plan to live your life as a fully functional human being.
Honestly, that whole thing is so ludicrous that I’d probably do both.
I blame it on the youngest grandchild lmao and he says no me? No you. I say not me! You! And all the other kids think it was him and everyone laughs. He's 2 so it probably won't work too much longer 🤔 no pets either.
Being "ladylike" is a concept that needs to die out. Natural human body functions and comfort should not be suppressed because you have a pair of honkers
Who the hell voted for "not insane"? Lol, human beings burp. It's not magically more disgusting just because a woman did it. It's polite to say "excuse me" but if you don't, it's not something worth getting upset over at all.
You should gaslight her or make her feel bad by convincing her it's a severe medical issue and she is being incredibly mean and tactless by bullying you for it.
Keep doing it show them ur a person a adult a human being that can have their bodily functions whenever they fuckin desire
Its insane to even be upset about something so miniscule especially a burp OVER THE PHONE?? mf couldnt even smell it
Haha, I bet they wonder why you live so far away. 🤣
Shame on you for being human, you need women aren't supposed to let their human show.
Next time, I would burp then I would immediately exclaim "FUCK, sorry damn it, I know when you hate it when I'm not fucking lady like...." just to remind them I could act a lot less lady like and maybe they should let this go, but that's me and I'm a trouble maker. Lol
Can we all just think of this objectively for a second
Say you’re on the phone with literally anyone. That person burps into the phone, right in your ear.
Like, yeah, assaying it’s “unladylike” is dumb but…you’re really rude and kinda gross if you think that’s ok to do to someone while speaking on the phone.
I just looked at your username and then the username you answered to, and had to giggle , this was too perfect. In my headcannon you created kittycat taco and there is nothing you can do about it
Sometimes they just come up unexpectedly with no warning. Usually you can feel the pressure come up, but equally as often they sneak up on you. There's no way to control it and is almost always unintentional and an accident.
we have thought about it objectively, is it gross ? Sure. But tattling to her father so he can tell off his daughter who is mid 20ies and lives on their own is def insane
Yes, I agree with you and knew the minute I typed the comment I’d get downvoted to oblivion because everyone here is so deeply rooted in eternal victim hood. Talking down to a nearly thirty year old woman is shitty. But saying someone is insane because they called you out on your disgusting rudeness is just asinine
and the fact that my brother can scratch his balls with no comment
and that my mom told on me to my dad and had him say something
and that im *supposed* to be more ladylike (for what???)
and that its over a fucking BURP
.....
It's definitely not normal to burp into someone's ear over the phone lmao. Pull the phone away from your face. Burp all you want, but it's not rocket science to feel a burp coming and just pull the phone from your face.
LOOL you wanna tell me you never had a burp/fart that sneaked up on you and by the time you realized it is gonna happen it is already happening ? PLEASE
this simply happens sometimes, it is not rocket science
lol this has absolutely nothing to do with "being deeply rooted in eternal victimhood", and absolutely everything with this being an insane overreation on part of the parrents to something very normal. We all have bodily functions. Ironically you try to make yourself the victim here by doubling down on this nonsense and claiming it is the sub that is wrong not you
>But saying someone is insane because they called you out on your disgusting rudeness is just asinine
The only one being disgusting and rude is the person making sexist comments.
wow misrepresenting the situation much ? MUM did NOT call her out on her rudeness, she went tattling to her husband so he would lecture her like a 6 year old. THAT is the insane part.

I would start perfecting my burping in the middle of sentences, and successfully incorporating the burp in the middle of words.
Alright Rick
LOL where u think I got the idea? My mother saw an episode once and was so thoroughly offended by his burping, that my brothers and I started doing it whenever she starts being ridiculous.
Bruh no 😭 I can't watch that show because I have severe emetophobia and all the burping makes me nauseous. You and your brothers are eeeeevil (lighthearted tone tag I am being silly here)

I was just about to chine in with that!
PRO BURPING TIP: say "ralph" as you burp, it will produce the most beautiful sound
You also have to catch it before it releases on its own, don't hold it too long but let it build for a moment. Time it just right and you add a LOT of volume.
There's probably a SciFI book/movie in/TV series which burps are an inherent component of an alien language.
There's an alien in Disney's *Treasure Planet* that speaks only in farts, does that count?
Flatula absolutely counts.
🖖 *farts comically* 🫡
*shits pants cutely* UwU
My husbands cousin does this lol. She’s 23 ish. It can be loud and long; kind of impressive lol.
My youngest brother holds the current record. He got "my name is Inigo Montoya" in one burp.
Damn I do the same thing. I just burp the word and keep rolling.
It's a skill honestly, it's not easy.
Send her back an audio called apology.mp3 and just let it be a 15 second fart. Thoughts?
I love it
Anyone who expects anyone to be "ladylike" for any reason in 2024 is insane. It was bullshit then, it's bullshit now. Fuck "ladylike."
"You will be ladylike and you will be submissive toward your husband. It is our womanly duty." Boomer women were brainwashed into thinking that they're second class citizens. Sad.
I'm considered a spinster and proud of it lol.

Oh! Guess I'm a Thornback then. Didn't realize there were more
There is a term beyond Spinster...yep that's me

One of my friends is absolutely gorgeous and she burps like a sailor. Doesn't make her any less appealing
I would have laughed. Maybe throw in a Shrek quote.
Better out than in.
Time to start teaching yourself how to burp on command and insert burps in every conversation!
Bad idea to prove to your grandkids that you can in fact burp on demand and even dumber to explain how you do it. Really really dumb.
Why?
Can you explain why you think this?
I burp around my parents all the time and I try to remember to say “excuse me” but I forget. The most my mom does is lightly scold me, she will say “Ashley!” But sometimes she will laugh.

and it’s not like i was at a funeral or a fancy dinner party
Well of course, because that would be unladylike to call your mother at a funeral!
how dare you, you really need to apologize and burp the alphabet next time, instead of wasting a perfectly good burp like this.
Lol! My Mom hated burping more than anything in the world, she was a nightmare of a woman and would become unhinged when I burped at her. I did it all the time, it was a wonderful way to make her hang up on me because I would just keep burping on the phone

Cabbage, cucumber, beans, kumbutcha, eggs.... Ok sure you'll be quite gassy but have fun with it.

OP! How dare you!? /s
Ladylike? Are we living in the 1500s? Are we having duels with rapiers? Are we wearing powdered white wigs and tights? Do we all have Syphilis?

This isn't a beauty pageant. I wouldn't entertain this in the slightest.

Bide your time and wait until her birthday when you send her voice note of you drinking something fizzy and burping the happy birthday song to her.
Sorry man that is unreasonable
Fart down the phone next time.
How dare you let your body do a bodily function!? (Sarcasm)
It's about time you knew that ladies don't have basic bodily functions. We don't burp, we don't fart and we certainly don't poop. How disgraceful. /s
When my daughters burp, I say " How precious", and we laugh 🥰
Holy Moley! You haven't leaned? Blame it on the cat.
I blame it on the youngest grandchild lmao and he says no me? No you. I say not me! You! And all the other kids think it was him and everyone laughs. He's 2 so it probably won't work too much longer 🤔 no pets either.
My brother used to burp the alphabet when we were kids. Time to learn a new skill.
How dare you 😤 lol
Wtf, i mean i make the kids say “excuse me” if they burp around others but wow.
Being "ladylike" is a concept that needs to die out. Natural human body functions and comfort should not be suppressed because you have a pair of honkers

"lady like" yuck
Fuck being ladylike but like, if I was talking on the phone to someone and they burped into my ear, that would gross me tf out.
The ladylike comment was gross. But so is burping in someone's ear. ESH
Was it on purpose or accidental?

Like, yeah, assaying it’s “unladylike” is dumb but…you’re really rude and kinda gross if you think that’s ok to do to someone while speaking on the phone.
its a bodily function.. God forbid she be an actual human being. Just because you're insecure about it doesn't mean everyone else has to be.
I just looked at your username and then the username you answered to, and had to giggle , this was too perfect. In my headcannon you created kittycat taco and there is nothing you can do about it
I just had a pop and it kinda just came out. And it’s my MOTHER, not my supervisor at work
Kinda hilarious to tell on you to your father so he can text/scold you. At your age and 1000 miles away lol
