Sense of smell....
all of the women I know have a much more sensitive sense of smell than the men I know. Especially pregnant women, they could probably track fugitives.

Which must be why my missus came up with the 6 Categories of Fart:

Meat
Sweet
Egg
Veg
Nut
Gas

She dislikes the sweet ones most of all.

This deserves further research.
There's even scope for a card game, based on the ass gas class. A sort of "Top Trumps", if you will.

I've tried extrapolating but
she insists that they are her categories and no dice. Also, they are never to be mistakenly referred to as flavours.

We did get somewhere classifying the sounds as well:

Quack
Hiss
Squeak
Brass
Wet
Bass

Who says women are not funny? My wife is funny as fuck, at least I think so.

Where does "umami" fit in?
Apart from possibly Shooting Stars if Vic gets bored with Uvavu

Excellent observation from your missus
These are indeed the Six Orders of True Fart; all are beautiful, and have their sub-categories and endless combinations.
What is to be abjured is the Shit Fart, that is, the fart that smells purely of shit. This is an unclean and monstrous thing. The Maker of the Shit Fart must be shunned, and made to sleep on the couch.
All other Farters should be held in awe and admiration by their wives.

LMFAO
I would show the missus this but she would kill me for posting the above. I will have to just paraphrase which seems to do you a disservice. Sorry.
