movieguy Posted November 20, 2004 Report Share Posted November 20, 2004 Ex-women's minister can't hear women's voices Austria's former women's minister has admitted he has a hearing difficulty that means he can't hear women's voices. Herbert Haupt, who was women's minister for three years and is still an MP, revealed his weakness during a Parliamentary debate. After Haupt complained he could not understand a female colleague during a debate, the Parliamentary president Andreas Kohl was forced to ask the woman to repeat her statement with a deeper voice. Haupt admitted that the hearing difficulty meant he could not hear sounds over 3,500 Herz, the range in which many female voices lie. ananova.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
