Women are 40% more likely to be diagnosed with sleep disorders. We still don't entirely know why. I'm going to take a drug like Ambien to try and get some sleep, right? But then we find out when the car crash data comes filtering back in that female patients are getting in car crashes on their damn morning commutes more.

than male patients who'd taken it the night before because the drug is being metabolized differently in our bodies. It's exiting our bodies in different ways. It's effects on the tissues. And we're only just figuring it out because of what, car crash data?

Yeah, so the FDA finally- Wait till that comes in and we'll make a decision. Yeah, we're just gonna, so yeah. So at the moment they were like, okay, this is a while back. They said, okay, Ambien, you should take half the dose if you've got ovaries. But at that point it had been on the market for 21 years. Oh my God.

The weird thing about ears is that primate hearing changed dramatically. Well, ancestral primate hearing. When our mammalian ancestors moved into the trees, most primates still up there, right? Then our hearing had to change. We needed to be able to hear one another through this weird new environment and we couldn't bounce sound off the ground.

It was just this like, and there's leaves and shit in between us. We could be far So we needed to be able to produce and hear lower pitches than most other mammals. But the females needed to retain those higher pitches because our babies make very high pitched sounds. And it's absolutely true that human women still have a little of that legacy of retaining those higher pitches over our lifespan.

Yeah. Now, remember, this doesn't mean just because you are a female person that it is your destiny to have babies. We're talking about evolutionary influences. Let me just go ahead and say that. Right? The reason you can hear the way you do is for many reasons in communicating with people. Okay.

However, it is true that female hearing is especially attuned to a range of pitches that tends to be associated with human babies' cries. True. That is true. Most people who are biologically male around age 25 or so will start cutting off the top range of the pitches that they can hear. It's just a predictable slope.

It's not like you need a hearing aid when you're 30, but it's just that predictable slope of that high end of human hearing, you start losing it. It's just like an aging thing.
