What does the fear of being judged by others hold you back from doing that you would otherwise do? (sopuli.xyz)

To be fair I still do these things but only when I'm alone.

Personally I love finding big puddles and then dig drains with a stick or my heel and watch the water flow.

Also love to throw a piece of wood into water and then toss stones high up in the air and try hit it imagining it's a warship I'm trying to bomb.

Then also without going into details there are some pieces of clothing I would like to wear but don't because they're considered femine or gay.

This is a good one, but I think it's not all shame. Concealing farts in public is a game of skill. You must consider how to position your body so that no sound is made. How quiet is the area you're in? Are there others around who could conceal the true farter? Are you able to discreetly move to another location so that by the time the smell arrives you're no longer a suspect?

You also take into account your last eaten foods and recent farts and how they may result in large smell or sometimes no smell. It's a big game of strategy and execution to be a covert farter.
