Do you ever get annoyed that men just tune us out? Well there is apparently a reason they do this, other than than they don't find anything we say interesting. According to an article on StyleCaster, men process female voices differently than they do other men's voices.
I'm pretty sure a man came up with this, but in a study published in the journal NeuroImage, researchers found that there are major differences in the way male and female brains process voice sounds. Different brain regions are activated in men, depending on whether they're hearing a male or female voice.
Apparently, the vibration and number of sound waves in our voice makes it harder for men to decipher what we're saying. When it comes to processing a woman's voice, they use the more complex auditory part of the brain that processes music, not human voices. But the guys in the study could easily hear and understand other men’s voices as speech because that uses a simpler brain mechanism at the back of the brain.
So does that mean that to men we are in an ongoing musical?
I guess next time your man didn't hear a word you said, you don't have to feel bad, because there is a scientific reason for that...still annoying as hell. I think their next study should be how to improve those listening skills and learning to process the words coming out of our mouths - music or not.
Thats why in older days wimmen should onle speak when tould to :-)
ReplyDeleteNo hard feelings.
No disrespect, and thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBut why must men change. Why is society trying to make a generation of pansy ass metro-sexual men that listen and care.
Screw that, give me a real man so I can be a real women. When you take away the worst of them what is left. A SHELL OF A MAN. What woman wants that. Women complain and women find faults, but step back, take a look at that man. Whether women admit it or not, we were drawn to the traits to begin with. It is all of him that we love and want so why change even a part.
Now don’t get me wrong, I am a women , but let me make this clear. I LOVE MAN!!!
Whether he listens or not, whether he pays attention or not, whether he has conversations or not.
If he is layin pipe like he works on the Alaskan pipeline or a sailor on shore leave…. He can ignore every word I say except the important ones…. DEEPER HARDER YES YES BABY MORE MORE!!!!!!
First of all, I actually don't believe you are a woman. But whether you are or not, if the only time you want to be heard is in bed, I would have to say you are looking for one sad and not very fulfilling relationship.
ReplyDeleteBelieve what you want, but by your response I can tell you are an intelligent young woman, a non minority, and financially stable. Someone that knows what she wants and will not compromise; modern women. Humans did not just become this way over night.
ReplyDeleteWould you listen if all your man had to say was negative chatter. You mean to tell me there is not one woman out there that does not used “YES DEAR”.
I comment only in defense of the GOOD men out there. The ones that try but are kicked in the nuts before they can even start the game.
