Your Neighbours Are Going To Have Sex. It’s Time You Get Over It.

March 15, 2010 1 Comment

A few months ago a woman was given a suspended prison sentence for having loud and long sex after neighbours complained.

Now a couple who swears that they make no noise and have maybe 10 minutes of sex a week have been told that they cannot have sex between 10pm and 7am.

All this because a little boy told his school teacher that he could hear the neighbours in the flat below having sex.

Both the man and woman have disabilities.

“It’s total nonsense. My wife and I are both disabled and I can assure you that we are not swinging from the light-shades. We are not screamers either – we cannot believe it. Sex normally only lasts around five or six minutes due to my condition so it’s not as it we are at it all night.”

Yet the neighbours claim that several other people have complained.

“It’s not the amount of times they are at it, but the noise when they are. They are very loud and some of the talk is very dirty.”

I’m sorry people but it’s time we all grow up and get over it.

It may be uncomfortable and awkward, but if you share a wall with a couple in a building or a house you probably will hear them having sex on occasion.

Just because you hear them doesn’t mean they are being unreasonably loud; it may just mean you have thin walls or live in a badly built old building. It’s no reason for you to get the government involved in clamping down on their fun.

And couples also need to be wary of how much noise they make and considerate of their neighbours and living circumstances.

Everyone has sex and unless it’s unreasonably loud, at all hours of the night, and you have complained to them personally and they have refused to cooperate, you may just have to deal with it.

It’s not their fault the walls are thin and you shouldn’t punish them for lack of soundproofing in your building.

If they are just a normal average couple having normal average sex then you really have no right to intervene.
