Reply To: Do you attempt to use a feminine voice?

[Marie Chandler]

I do not attempt a femme/higher pitched voice. When I’m dressed, I’m naturally feminine with my gestures and projection, but affecting my voice feels really odd and unnatural to me, so I don’t do it. My feeling is that if I’m actually close enough to someone to be speaking with them, then there is little chance that they think I’m a GG. Using my natural voice lets them know that I know that I’m not fooling anyone and that I am what I am and I think that might make other people more comfortable with the interaction. Anyway, that is what works best for me.
