Ah, yes. Google “orgasm on treadmill” and guess who’s #1?
Hi. That would be me.
Apparently I’ve taught the world a lot about odd things that can occur when exercising.
I just never thought I’d teach my teacher (and entire class) about these odd things.
I continue to take a yoga class where my flexibility and bendy parts still service me well. As you may remember I’m quite good at the “plow” pose. It was while in the “plow” Monday morning that my teacher decided to make an example out of me.
“Can you bring your hips straight up and your legs out?”
Of course everyone in the class turns to look at me.
“Hi!”
I started to do it until I noticed the eerie silence in the room and the fact that all eyes were on me. When I move out of plow, I queef. Hardcore.
I dropped out of the pose quickly and mumbled “I’m always afraid I’ll queef when I do that.”
“Excuse me what?”
“Queef, you know, a, uh, a vaginal toot?”
This is when my yogini laughed hysterically and thanked me for giving a name to this COMPLETELY COMMON yoga freak of farting. And in fact if you DON’T queef chances are you’re not doing it right.
So queef with pride my sisters, it’s one fart that lets you know you’re doing something right.

LOL. And I thought I was the only one who was terrified of such a thing happening – I always thought I was doing the poses a little wrong or something. It can be especially bad in Pilates – with all the core movements. Phew – so I am not weird. LOL. Thanks for sharing your mortifying moment so that we can all relax a little and realize that it really does happen to everyone.

Oh my gosh. It is awesome that this is normal. I didn’t really have this “problem” until after giving birth (and it’s gotten a bit better…destined to get worse again of course). And I’ve refused to go to a yoga class because of it.
Maybe. Perhaps. You have encouraged me otherwise!

Nice! I can’t believe your teacher didn’t know what a queef was! And, let me just say, any blog that mentions the word “queef” multiple times is a blog I will de-lurk for more often. Too effing funny!!!

Us guys totally need to come up with a term for farts out of our schlongs. Of course, as far as I know, no weiner has ever let loose with a fart like noise, but when one does I want to be there to coin the term and get rich like Sally Queef of Tennessee did after trademarking her term.

This is the funniest thing I’ve ever read about yoga — which I mostly do not find funny but find painful. Partly due to the queefs, which I am so very glad to have a name for, even if I do try to quash them at every opportunity. Thanks for the belly laugh.

Man, your queefing story is awesome. Unfortunately, I have let out queefs lately in plow pose…three second long queefs SO loud. What can you do? I’m glad you had the balls to tell your instructor what that noise was. Props.
P.S. My boyfriend and I think your story and the above comments are hilarious.
