to think that men are just fucking noisy and I am not "sensitive" to noise?

[PyongyangKipperbang]

2 (ex) husbands. 2 Sons. 4 Daughters.

Every single man I have shared a house with has been so sodding noisy! Why simply open a door when you can wrench it open and slam it shut?! Why walk when you can stomp?!

My BIL, my father, my partner (we dont live together by choice), all noisy. My DD's, my sister, my mother, me....we just dont galump around like rhino's on acid.

And no, its not weight or size. Some of the women are larger/heavier than some of the men and yet still seem to manage to navigate their way through the world without sounding like they are invading a nation.

Sick to bloody death of youngest DS (17) wrenching his bedroom door off the hinges, stomping into the bathroom, slamming the doors, stomping down the stairs..... Got cross tonight and he said "yeah, dad said you are oversensitive to noise". FFS, I am a metal fan! Loud noise does not bother me, but unneccessary loud noise does! DS's dad is 2 inches shorter than me, and when we were married, weighed less than me but still managed to make more noise than the audience at a Taylor Swift gig...ok exaggerating but you get the point.

DH seems unable to shut a door quietly. I go to bed before him and I always hear the kitchen door slam when I’m trying to get to sleep.

AAAAARRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHH 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Yes, generally
Specifically this morning when I don't have to be up early - very rare

DH must be wearing 75 items of clothing from the number of drawers and doors opened and slammed

And apparently our house has grown new rooms judging from the doors crashed shut as he's stomped around

And chuntering to the cats...

I'M TRYING TO SLEEP, YOU NOISY WANKPUFFIN

My ex was a stomper. His stupid big feet would sound like Pingu slapping on the wood floor and stomping up the stairs the fucking things would click too! How I didn’t chop his feet off I don't know.

Bonkers post. I hate noise , even more so since my hearing deteriorated, surprisingly. My sons are the same and often abandon noisy pubs where you can't have a proper conversation.

Whereas one of my ex gfs could probably be in the Guinness book of records shouting category. Bats plummeted from the sky when she was angry , their sensitive radar damaged beyond repair. But what does this prove? Nothing. It's anecdotal chit chat ; like your click baity man hating rant.

All words are made up. What happened to Misanthropist? Don't see it often now.

I don't recognise this at all. Even the large brash ex-army guy I know doesn't make excess noise when moving (though I suppose he was probably taught to be stealthy). But wtf did you have 6 children if you wanted peace and quiet?

And being a clumsy oaf I am way more likely to break things than my partner, dad, brother etc etc.

This thread is hilarious lol.

My dh is a generally gentle guy (never heard him raise his voice except to recall a dog in 15y) and he can sneak into a room without you knowing.

BUT even he does the stupid sneezes like a cross between a shout and a cough but it's a sneeze. I swear the whole street can hear it. It used to annoy me until now we have dd and I've got someone I can giggle about it with.

I recognize what you're saying, OP. From sitting in restaurants, to the man coming to service the boiler, why are you SHOUTING rather than talking?? Why are you crashing about??

Same here. I've always been really noisy. I stomp everywhere. I could never sneak into the house late as a teenager and I'm still the same at age 53. DD is the same as me.
My husband and son are so quiet. DH scares me all the time by walking through the bedroom door. I will not have heard him come in the door or climb the stairs.

DP is not like this. He can open doors, use stairs, and walk across laminate flooring in work boots, all while making less noise than teenage DD. I am eternally grateful that he is aware of his surroundings, and the other people in them. I don't think I could live with a loud one again.

Most words are made up at some point. "Misandry" was made up about 150 years ago based on Greek and proto-Indo-European, same as "misogyny" (except that was made up earlier).

That aside, yes, men in general are noisier than women and it is so bloody annoying. DH is incapable of walking quietly and I cam already see 4yo DS following the same path (no pun intended).

And ime its women who wear such vast quantities of sugary cloying perfume that it triggers my gag reflex. This thread is just batshit.

I remember once shouting at DH and DS 'Why does every day have to be a FESTIVAL of DOORSLAMMING?'

Very loud and/or messy people stress me out. I've met both men and women who are this way, some people just seem very unaware of themselves or don't think it's a big deal.

Bizarrley my petite, lightweight dd was a much noisier teen than my ds.
Ds had a loft room and we never heard him. When he left home dd had his room and every night it was stomp, stomp across the floor.
She has a dc now and he sleeps through anything because he’s used to noise!

The stomping and door slamming which shakes the whole house! When my dh empties the dishwasher I swear I can identify every piece of crockery he flings into the cupboard from 2 floors away. I’m always surprised that he doesn’t smash it all to smithereens.

My DH and DSS both slam cups and glasses down onto the table, it drives me insane.

I know what you mean.

But I am sensitive to noise and whilst my husband isn't like this, my children were all a bit clomp clomp.

I corrected them about it from a young age and it has definitely made them more aware.

My back door does take a beating sometimes though when they forget.

This.

it's fucking tedious, especially the pathetic "handmaidens" crap.

My husband is entirely incapable of opening and closing kitchen cupboards without slamming them - but then I should be thankful he's actually closing them!!

In fact, any door has to be slammed. I do wonder if they actually have the ability to close things quietly.

All the men I’ve ever known have been like this.

I think it’s actually done on purpose to let you know they’re there - it’s a control thing, a constant reminder that they’re about. And I fucking hate it.

My dh does this as well - he’ll walk into a room where I’m sitting peacefully reading a book or enjoying my own space and he’ll start clicking his fingers or whistling or making some random noises - why?! Why do this! It is so annoying. If you want my attention or want to talk to me just talk to me! But no, rather make random noise.

I hate noise of any kind. I live apart from DH by choice and it's heavenly! He's not even particularly noisy, just a few shouty sneezes, and a louder voice when he's been with friends, but even that was enough.

I recommend living alone to anyone who wants to!

My Dad and brother are not noisy - both move quietly and calmly and seem to fix more than they break. But, yeah, every other young-ish man I've known has made more than enough noise to make up for them.

But also, I went through a phase of dating musicians and so maybe I got the noise that I deserved during that time!

i was having a meal with friends last weekend and there was a table of 4 men at the other side of the room and they were so loud ! Loud , belly laughs at every second sentence , all talking at once , getting up to the toilet and continuing conversations as they walked across the restaurant. 2 ladies at the next table asked to be moved as they couldn’t hear each other . It was awful but they must have known however didn’t care.

@Longagonow96

"misandry" is a made up word. Made up by men who don't like to be called on their shit, and used by their handmaidens as part of their pick me dance."
If you print t shirts I want one.
