Female superpower

 

Women can hear better than men. For example, even when her back is turned, at a crowded party, a wife can hear her husband flirting with the young and desirable office assistant.

That's just one example, of course.

Why Women Have More Sensitive Hearing Than Men

A study shows sex and environment, not just age, affect hearing sensitivity.

Professor Turi King, University of Bath, said: 

“We were surprised to find that women had two decibels more sensitive hearing across all the populations we measured, and this accounted for most of the variations between individuals.

“This could be due to different exposure to hormones during development in the womb, due to men and women having slight structural differences in cochlear anatomy.

“As well as having higher hearing sensitivity, women also perform better in other hearing tests and speech perception, indicating that their brains are also better at processing the information."

So, guys, she can hear you, and you'd better listen to her, too.
