If women snored like men

[Caketea]

If men were disturbed by snoring like women are, wibu to think it would be common that they’d be offered an operation to stop it?! Because I’m on a campsite and I can hear loud snoring from three tents, mine included. And I just feel women have to endure, as usual. Anyone?

(And I know some women snore…but it’s not the same!!)

I had a double operation, a septoplasty and turbinectomy together as my nose was completely blocked and I couldn't breathe through it.
I had already had my tonsils and adenoids removed as a teen.

I still snore but not as bad as before, however, there's nothing left to be cut out 🤷🏻‍♀️

I snore far more than my DH...don't drink much, not overweight, but snore like an extra from the Walking Dead apparently - zombie noises. Annoys the heck out of him and I entirely understand. Poor bloke!

I know of someone who snored so loudly that it turned on the touch sensitive lamp on her bedside table.

I snore, so I lost a few lbs and I avoid having more than one or two drinks as that makes it worse.

The problem isn't snoring, I can't help it, my medication makes it worse. The problem is people who won't do anything to help the problem and let their partners suffer.

I (F) snore like a foghorn. OH has slept downstairs before now when I've been really bad. I stayed at a friend's once and next morning the neighbours complained they hadn't been able to sleep.

My Mum snores so bad when I was away at Uni my Dad made her sleep in my old room at the opposite side of the house.

OP, I think it's hilarious you just assume it can't possibly be genteel little ladies making such a horrid uncooth noise.

I bet you don't fart either do you?

I snore louder than any man.

I got woken up and moved to a private room because of the noise I was making when DD2 was born. The private room had a bed with an adjustable back (it didn't work in the main ward, so I was flat on my back with an extra 2 stone of fluid retention), which stopped me snoring straight away.

Win-win all round, I'd say.

@NeverDropYourMooncup agreed! Makes no sense to move out all the women being kept awake rather than the 1 snoring, and to sweeten the pill they get their own room

I think women do snore as badly as men can.

I use earphones playing sleep stories to drown out my partners snoring.

The operations don’t work, I had one, still snoring

Me too 😲 I was very confused for a moment 🤣

My dh used to be a horrific snorer, he has severe sleep apnea and now uses a CPAP machine so snores very little, though he does wake me up when he adjusts his mask and it sets off a hissing noise. Still nothing like as bad as the snoring!

I now snore worse than him but only when I'm flat on my back and it never disturbs him. I have a weird disability which means I don't move in my sleep so if I fall asleep on my back it's going to be a snorey night unless I wake myself. Sometimes I wake up with a tender soft palate and know I've been snoring. We both sleep much better with his cpap!

Are you sure it’s the men snoring? 🤣

DH tells me I snore like a bloke!

Thought I'd be the only one to misread that!😅

It’s snore o’clock! Multiple people snoring in tents. I now realise how many women snore and stand corrected by you all. @Ace56 hit the nail on the head. And all of those who said the partner should do something about it - I am inclined to agree.

Whether that’s losing weight, stopping drinking and smoking, wearing a mask or whatever. But I’ve honestly never heard so many snorers in my life.

To the person that said I don’t fart. I let one rip in a camper van earlier. Tried blaming the dog but I was found out.

Hot chocolate? Jeez oh, which hospital were you at?

I’m the loudest snorer in my house. Record myself on a snoring app and I am most often in the “epic” snoring and the noises are horrible. I should go and get checked out.

Ha that particular ward gets a lot of donations and by some cruel twist of fate I ended up back there yesterday, so I am writing from my hospital bed ,own room this time .😃

Some women snore louder than men, they just deny that they even snore.

DH has been an extreme snorer for years. He has just been diagnosed with Heart Failure caused by Obstructive Sleep Apnea. He now has a CPAP machine, I wish he had got it 10 years ago.
