Swedish Woman Complains About Noisy Sex
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A Swedish woman, tired of the noise made by her amorous neighbors in the apartment above, took her quest for some peace and quiet to an official environmental health committee.
Jon Persson, who works with the local health committee in Simrishamn, some 382 miles south of the capital, Stockholm, said Thursday that the woman said she was "distressed, angry and tense all over" because her neighbors make love loudly almost nightly.
He said it was the first time he can recall such a complaint ever being filed in the Scandinavian country. Typically, most disputes get settled between neighbors and don't require government intervention.
The woman, who was not identified, complained that the lovemaking usually starts around 10 p.m. and lasts well past midnight, sometimes to 1 a.m., Persson said.
According to a copy of her complaint, she said the lovers' efforts have left her with tense headaches, cramps and heartburn.
"You are my last hope, please help me," the woman wrote in the complaint, according to Persson.
Persson said he's not entirely sure how to help the woman, noting that it's the landlord of the apartment building "whose duty it is to make sure the nuisance stops."
Persson said his committee could visit the woman's apartment and measure the noise levels, but said it might be hard to do that because "we don't know in advance when the disturbances will occur."
