Some of us just have squeaky fucking voices. You think I wouldn't like to sound like a real grown up? I fucking would.

LMAO...

Thank you for bringing it up , they make me so sick that I just walk away.

I sound like a Blackburn lass

I grew up in different culture and noticed years back that ladies with softer and deeper voices are major turn on for me...

What do you mean by a certain status? Shot in the dark but Im guessing that the ones youre noticing are white trophy wife material with few other marketable skills? This archetype on average probably tends to do this to infantilize themselves for their sugar daddies. Some girls voices get stuck in this range because of childhood abuse. Some are mimicking pornstars. Some just have really short thin vocal cords and naturally sound like a cute little mouse no matter what they do. If it seems artificially put on it's a huge red flag/turn off for me, but if their voice is just naturally high it's usually adorable. What can ya do? My only idea is stop hanging out among so many fake vapid women if it bothers you.

Ah, the old coy ploy

I would kill for a voice like Adele or Pink. Heck, I would kill to be able to get on key. But some of us have a voice higher than Cyndi Lauper. Without corrective surgery or smoking 18 packs of cigarettes, that's not going to change.

I think there are many speech patterns as well as mannerisms that many adapt from watching reality tv...making that pouty big lipped fish look, standing pigeon toed, flipping hair, etc.

I know exactly that voice...ugh...but, hey...not hurting anyone so not a big deal to me...just a tad annoying so easily avoided...I do understand, though

I can assure you my voice doesnt sound l8ke Minnie Mouse...

these are most certainly not politically correct times. these are times in which more and more people feel free to rebel against what they perceive as political correctness but which in fact is just common decency. it's not politically correct not to yell the n word at someone. it's just decency.

women's voices have been controlled by society in many countries (notably japan, where women don't even BREATHE the same way men do -- and i am not assuming; i lived there for 10 years and, in a drama class i taught, literally had to teach the female students how to breathe!) and present-day united states is no exception. my complaint is actually the opposite of yours; i hear too many women using the glottal fry, thinking it's sexy when in fact it's just irritating. i don't know which women you've been hearing. i also don't know what the hell that question has to do with pc (or decency for that matter).

I so agree, I have been living here 20 years and it still annoys me. It usually (not always) goes in line with the brain activity.

Hmmm - guess I don’t circulate with ladies of a certain status ?

I’ve been an American woman all my life and have never used a cartoon voice. In fact, I hate cartoons, Disney, animé...those comic book thingies. Yuck.
