Maybe those females can grow some balls of their own and go do something about it.
Boy, when I imagine that, they always come back with "Grow some ****, then", and I wouldn't know how to further continue that magnificent repartee.
Thanks for the support though!

If a number of different people who don't know each other are telling you the same thing is a problem, maybe you should take heed instead of dismissing them as sexist.

By this logic, sexism can't exist at all, because it would inevitably require people who don't know each other to share the same widely accepted stereotype.
I don't know, try to imagine several males telling you to make them a sandwich because you're female and that's what you do. Would you take heed, too?

How does the situation escalate to that? I mean do they first ask you to go tell the dude to keep it down and you refuse?
I would go up there to no result, and once I said that I tried before but couldn't do anything.
Either way, they would lose any interest in me the next second.
As for the "passive female", I guess passive females especially would want me to sort everything out for them.
As for the landlord, complaints, the police and sophisticated revenge schemes - no, this doesn't work.
The only civil solution is to change the apartment, but I can't do it right now.
But again, this isn't even my main issue.
Also, it's not that awful as some of you described. At least they don't do that at 3 AM.
