Don't let my neighbors in the next apartment hear that. I'm suprised I haven't heard compaints myself but if I am really into it there is no quiet sex for me. #loudsex
I really think it must have been truly, truly excessive given the number of complaints for them to reach that decision. From the article, "this was not a one-off, it went on for hours at a time...It is further compounded by the frequency of the episode, virtually every night." I mean, c'mon--no one should have to deal with murderous screaming for hours on end every night.... #loudsex
All I can think of is "I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt, so sexy it huuuurrrtts." How on earth can you make noises that sound like murder for that long? #loudsex
Is this woman not allowed to attend public sporting events or concerts? Or if she attends, must she be in mime makeup as to indicate her vow of silence? #loudsex
I don't know if I could restrain myself from making excessive noise anywhere in my country for four years. What if the Longhorns make it to the BCS Championship game? What if the Cowboys make it to the Superbowl? What if the Red Sox win the World Series next year??? #loudsex
Can we ban Michael Lohan and the Gosselin's from making excessive noise as well? Or is that sort of justice only reserved for people who fuck and not those who are just fucked?
@whynotshesaid: There's also an element of 'crying wolf' here. I don't mean that she is faking it, but that if the neighbours get used to hearing a woman screaming, they are less likely to react appropriately if they hear a woman screaming because she's in trouble. Wouldn't it be awful if they all just thought 'oh, it's that noisy mare next door' and someone was being assaulted? #loudsex
This pisses me off a lot. I had neighbours for the past 2 years that had loud sex all the time and it was infuriating to wake up at 3 in the morning to other people's sex noises. I think it's really disrespectful. I do not want to know when other people are doing it. Another time my little sister was visiting (a good few years ago) and my upstairs neighbours had loud sex and I was praying that my 12 yr old sister didn't wake up to that sound. Grrr. Makes me so mad! #loudsex
I don't mind that I can hear my neighbors' muffled sex sounds. I live in an old house that has been converted into apartments and I expect a certain level of noise in such close and poorly insulated quarters. But if I heard the sex sounds of, say, people in adjacent buildings or-- even more improbably-- people across the street, it would piss me off. Involuntary sex moans at a decent volume are normal. Super loud sex moans that the whole neighborhood can hear are exhibitionist. #loudsex
After living above a meth- and alcohol-fueled sex screamer, I say throw the book at them. 90 minutes of "OH OH OH FUCK YEAH FUCK YEAH" etc at 3a.m. on a Wednesday, despite neighbors on three sides pounding on your shared walls? Rot in hell, some of us have to get up at 6a.m. I've heard some natural sex moans, and then there's the "the louder it is, the better it must sound to our houseguests" sex moans. Here's a tip: I don't judge you as a person for how good your sex sounds. I do judge you for waking me out of my REM sleep as you shriek like a monkey. #loudsex
I've had the noisy-sex neighbor before, and while I'm all for people having good sex and enjoying it, I still find it extremely rude for them to have LOUD sex at 4:00 am. I'm talking screams, encouragement, headboard slamming the wall, the works. Naturally this would wake me up each time it happened. It was loud enough that the neighbor that lived below me could also hear it. Everyone has a right to their sex life, but people need to be respectful of general quiet hours and at least try to keep it down. It's the considerate thing to do. #loudsex
@scandalouskiki: Exactly. It's just common sense and consideration - which is apparently one of the most difficult things for some people to comprehend. #loudsex
@scandalouskiki: Quite. I regularly get woken up in the early hours by my downstairs neighbour's sex operetta. The worst thing is that her turns of phrase are so cliched (v. When Harry Met Sally), that I wonder whether she's actually enjoying it at all. Then I get over that, remember she's an idiot anyway, and shout through the floorboards for her to shut the eff up. #loudsex
I live in a condo complex in CA. We like to keep the back patio doors open at night, you get a lovely breeze from the ocean. You can hear our neighbors if they're in their adjacent patios, or the garages below, but most of the time, you really can't hear anyone at all unless they're outside and being loud.
Well, one memorable Saturday night, someone forgot to shut their bedroom window next door. And we were treated to two sessions of what sounded like incredibly fun sex. That girl was into it, and she was having a lot of fun. The first session, roughly at midnight, involved a lot of orgasms, and something that buzzed. The next session, at roughly 1am, was a bit slower and had some really long and gratifying sounding orgasms.
We sat out our on patio (as did our teenage neighbors, I could hear them giggling behind the wall). I had a glass of wine, and spied one of our other neighbors across the way sitting at her upstairs windowsill doing the same.
Apparently the whole neighborhood was enjoying the entertainment. I may or may not have twittered the entire show.
I really don't mind hearing sex, so long as it's at a reasonable hour, and it's not deafening. #loudsex
@tiredfairy: Ew. I just don't want to get that intimate with people I don't know. Or am not having sex with myself. It's a private thing. Open windows are one thing; beyond that, if it's like this couple, I have to wonder if they're just plain exhibitionists, and if so, I don't want to be part of their little scene. #loudsex
@Ginmar Rienne: Well, in this instance, it was clearly an accident. I don't think they intended that the whole complex here the evening events.
I think I'd probably get annoyed if I had to hear it a lot. At a certain point, you've got to know you're being inconsiderate. But I don't want to judge other people's consensual sex lives, or say you can't be noisy sometimes. Sex doesn't always allow you the ability to be quiet. Still, I believe in courtesy. #loudsex

Oh, yoo hoo! I'm not banned from making excessive noises, Mr. Cartwright.
Yet.

But will they have to reenact the offense for the court? #loudsex

Unless he is stabbing you with something other than his penis, of course. #loudsex

At any rate, I question the need to be THAT loud during sex. A certain amount of noise is normal, but you have to put in effort beyond that. #loudsex
