Men do have trouble hearing women


Men do have trouble hearing women: research.

Men who are accused of never listening by women now have an excuse - women's voices are more difficult for men to listen to than other men's.

Then why do fighter jets use female voices for their alert messages?
Supposedly because of the psychological effect of the voices in gaining men's attention, based on the response to mother, and possibly the sexual imperative - I think we just have to accept that fighter pilots are pretty much all men.
But it wouldn't work if the pilots couldn't hear them would it?
