Video: Men Incapable of Making Their Voice Sexy: Study
ABC ^ | 4/23/14 | Paula Faris

A new study by Albright College finds women can more easily make their voices sound attractive.

According to a new study by Albright college, men are incapable of intentionally making their voices sound sexy. 20 women and 20 men tried to make their voices sound sexy.

Another 40 people judged whether they achieved that goal. And found that the women easily outperformed the men. Why is it so difficult for men?

I mean, even a cartoon, Jessica rabbit, can do it. Researchers know, that to men, an attractive voice is often linked to physical appeal. While men learn that what attracts women is confidence.

lol great story.

I once had a neighbor who had a sexy voice. Nice guy but his sexy voice did not match what you would call sexy in person.

There is a British comedy where a woman tunes in to listen to a harbor master’s reading of the current ocean conditions, tides etc. She didn’t even live on the coast.

Except thanks to the FED, soon a million dollars won’t be very impressive at all

So now it'll be: "Hey baby, I have a million dollars after taxes."

The man who can make his voice sound sexy.

Your picture reminded me of a guy I used to know who worked in radio and was very successful at it.

He's a little round fat guy, about 5 foot 5, with thick glasses, but to hear him through a microphone, you would swear he was 6 foot 6, with wavy blond hair, and muscles on top of muscles. He has a deep, resonant, manly voice. If a voice can make you sexy, he's the one.

It’s Global Warming, I tell ya!

The increased Anthropogenic Greenhouse Gasses in the atmosphere are altering the density of the air we breathe, which changes the dynamic vibrational properties of the vocal cords, resulting in less sexy voices for men per perceived gender stereotype.

Currently, the same phenomenon is physically affecting women in the same manner, but due to stereotypical gender expectations, it has the disparate result of making female voices sound more high pitched and shrill,and hence, more feminine to men.

At the rate humans are adding AGHG to the atmosphere, by August 17th, 2073, everybody will sound like they have inhaled helium before speaking.

Actually, what is in the heart is more important than the guy’s voice.

Amen.

Bob Dylan’s voice reminds me of fingernails on a chalkboard.
