Women in general take little interest in high end audio. There are probably a bunch of reasons for that (like that we're a bunch of nerds), but one of the recent threads got me wondering about this again.
My wife occasionally likes to rhyme off various caveman theories; e.g. why am I more rattled by the kids' bickering after a long day? She muses that it could be men have more acute hearing, that we needed it so we could protect the tribe in old times, etc.
Is there any evidence of this at all? All I've ever heard from studies is that men lose their HF hearing faster than women (I think).
