My husband snores, my father snores, my little son snores, my brother-in-low snores... I have difficulties to fall asleep when someone snores next to me. What about you?

As I was told, I don't snore. But I can't say it's a rule that only men snore. My mother snores so loud that when my father snores, his noise can't be heared by the noise my mother does. 
I don't mind the noise they make, I use to sleep easily, my sleep is not disturbed by their snoring in the room next to mine.

Yeah, I know I'm lucky with it. I fall asleep very easy and I don't care what happen around me when I sleep. Sometimes, when my mother comes to visit me, she sleeps with me (in the same bed), and I still sleep fine, despite the terrible noise she makes while snoring.

you must be really lucky to have surrounded by those many sound engineers lol.People get to snore when they have a bad nose and also heard that they make sounds when they're tired too.As of your main post...you must have got used to their sounds until now.great day.

Well I think women also snore ..though men snore is more noisy and loud like the person who is sleeping next to them cant sleep because of that...but I had seen one lady who was sleeping in the train and snoring sound was too loud that I could not sleep there in night..it is beacuse of some nasal problem or dont know..

Both genders snore. One doesn't necessarily do so more than another.
There are multiple reasons why people snore. The two most common are sinus swelling and a sleep disorder called Sleep Apnea. Both my parents had Sleep Apnea and my sister and I have inherited it to a degree.

My mother snores so loud, it's like a jackhammer going off. So, it's not just men who snore. When I was a kid, I often had to sleep in a small closet clear across the house and close the door to get any sleep, so I understand about not being able to sleep when someone near you snores.
