Whether it’s a boyfriend, a brother, or a friend — we all know a guy who is a bad listener. And no, it’s not because they’re bored. There are actually studies that show there are several reasons why they struggle in this area. It seems that men’s brains simply hear the female voice differently, so perhaps we can let them off the hook this time.


Female voices make men’s brains work harder.

One study reveals that men react differently to female voices. Men have less activity in some parts of their brain when other men speak. In fact, men’s brains had to work harder to decipher and understand what the women were saying. This means that men can find it more difficult to understand the meanings and emotions of what women are saying.

Women’s voices are less authoritative.

It’s been found that the size of a woman’s vocal cords and larynx is important as higher-pitched people are taken less seriously. In fact, the study tells us that we trust people with lower voices more and that we prefer them in leadership roles. This is one reason why men may not listen as much to women as they do to their peers.

Women’s voices are more complex.

The difference between female and male voices is crucial here. When women talk, they use many more sounds than men and tend to speak in a more melodic way. These 2 factors may make it tricky for men’s brains to quickly understand what women are saying as there’s more to decipher.

The stereotype that women talk more than men is an urban myth, according to research. In fact, it seems that men and women talk roughly the same amount and the context is just as important. The research showed that in some circumstances, men spoke more than women, and in others, women more than men. So it’s probably time to put this stereotype to bed.

More importantly , women voices are manipulative.

The best way to save yourself from real trouble is not to listen to them. It takes listening to women to turn your childhood friend to your worst enemy in the space of one minute. Lots of men have gone to early grave listening to women and believing their manipulations. They have scattered fine homes

CuteMike01:
As far as I can see the reason men may find it difficult to listen to a woman based on her flaws might be

- She is insensitive
- She makes him feel like a woman
- She isn't nice but domineering
- She is a liar
- She talks too much

gbam!

All the girls the same just little difference which is skin colour in 9ja.

Their decisions are mostly based on emotion than the reason of taking such action and benefits attached

your larynx and pharynx won't support that. You are a woman your voice lost that authoritative nature right from factory. It is not your fault. Even in your deepest sleep u can make out a man's voice from that of woman. Men are natural authority over women except SIMPS though.

Benwallt I think it should be why men listens to women.
