Snoring...

Snoring...

So I had this brain fart the other morning. I have been traveling with my and sharing a room. I asked him if I snored and if it bothered him. He said yes a little snoring, and no it was not bothering him much.

That got me thinking. Why do we snore? You'd think that an annoying trait like that might have been bread out of us evolutionarily (<= not really a word) speaking. Then I thought maybe there is an evolutionary advantage for snoring:

Theory 1) Snoring cavepeople scared away small animals with their snoring and thus had marginally less disease carried by small animals (a.k.a. rodents).

Theory 2) The snoring caveperson's partner would be so annoyed by snoring that he/she would wake the snorer up and sexually satisfy him/herself so he/she could sleep, with snoring or not. This would cause higher rates of<b> copulation </font></b>and birth rates for snoring couples.

Theory 3) The snorer's partner would have to sleep a lot more when the snorer was not sleeping/snoring. Thus leaving the snorer with more free time to mate with other partners. Picture all the well rested snorers waking up fresh and having morning sex while their exhausted partners were still sleeping.

Anyone out there want to advance a theory?
