Neighbours petition against woman's noisy sex

Neighbours petition against woman's noisy sex

An Australian woman's loud love-making has caused her neighbours to complain to the council.

They raised a petition to Port Phillip Council in Melbourne asking that she tone down her bedroom behaviour.

But the woman, in her 30s who asked to not be identified, told the Herald Sun she was shocked by the claims.

She said she did not believe she was excessively loud: "It's probably because my bed is up against the wall," she said.

"There is no sound-proofing in these apartments. I can hear people snoring next door and clearing their throat. I can even hear them having sex. I have to wear ear plugs when they are watching videos."

She said her flatmates had never complained and said she would not be bullied into selling her apartment in the exclusive development.

But one of the neighbours, in a letter to the woman, said: "I hear you every time you have sex. You will not be able to play music at any time, entertain guests or wear shoes."

A Port Phillip Council spokeswoman said it had investigated the claims and encouraged both parties to seek mediation.

"This is an unusual complaint that is not covered by local council laws," she said.
