Why we acknowledge other people farts as smelly and nasty yet most people find their own farts bearable or even smelling good?

If this works because we have an hypothetical "unique scent mark" or something, then why other personal body odours such as armpits, foot or halitosis are immediatly identified as nasty even from the owner of the smell?

Makes no sense at all
>>
probably something to do with gut bacteria or olfactory conditioning so we know when a gas is from our own ass and thus not horribly dangerous

You think your farts smell better than your bad breath or armpits?

What the fuck is wrong with you? People actually enjoy the smell of their own farts?

Most likely answer, feeling its safe. Meanwhile the other odor sources are more "external" and thus more subject to change

na, but for serious discussion. I personally dont have an isue with breath or armpits (unless i use another brand of deodorant which makes me magically a garbage pail friend).

When i get a little bit smelly on those sources i immediately notice it and proceed to remove it, but farts my own at least, why i dont "like them" i can bear them.

Also the fact that lots of people "enjoy" them farts has been acknowledge countless time on pop culture.

Why does it tickle less when you tickle yourself?

did you seriously just give someone diet advice just to make their farts smell better?
Grains are for cows. Meat is for people who have to sustain high cerebral capacity.

another mystery for the tin.
But these are good questions since once solved could give major answers to fields like bionics and AI in general

>Implying eating huge amounts of protein has to do with brain maintenance.
>Implying the source of most of fecal odor is from bacterial shit, specially after processing protein
>Falling for the meat jew filling your body with oxidants and increasing damage to circulatory system
>Not implying eating large amounts of starch filled grains with slow digestive release and absortion instead may help to keep an steady sugar intake for brain. Also eat fruits dude, need mo vitamins fo them programs.
