"There's that fag talk we talked about."

High pitched, extended vowels and incredibly articulated: so-called 'gay voice' is a real phenomenon, researchers say.
Two science YouTubers have scoured studies behind the theory that homosexual men have a unique twang that transcends aspects like culture and upbringing.
Mitch Moffit, a biologist, and Greg Brown, a science teacher — who are both gay — explored what exactly constitutes a 'gay voice' and what might cause it...
They found that analysis comparing the pitch of straight and homosexual men's voices found key differences in how they speak.
Mr Moffit explained: 'Results find that gay men speak with higher pitch variation meaning that their range from low to high is much more extreme than straight men.'
Mr Brown added: 'Gay men were also found to have longer vowel durations for "a", "i", and "u" — they hold these vowels longer in general when they speak compared to straight men.'
One interesting aspect of these pitch analyses was that the results weren't language specific and were replicated across English, French and Dutch.
'The gay voice expands beyond language and isn't just the words or culture we engage in,' Mr Moffit said.
Mr Brown also highlighted a specific way the 's' sound seemed to be spoken amongst gay men.
'Gay men are also more likely to hold their s sound for longer than straight people,' he said.
He highlighted how this is contrary to the so-called 'gay lisp', a perceived quality of gay men's speech where they misarticulate the 's' sound as 'th'.
Studies, however, have shown homosexual men don't have an increased rate of lisps than their straight counterparts.
But one key observed difference between the sexualities was that straight men are more likely to mumble and slur their words compared to gay men who were more articulate.

Anybody listen to Andy Kim??
The guy who sang “Rock Me Gently”?
I’ve learned that one reason some gay men walk the way they do is because their anal sphincter has been loosened to the point of, well, making an embarrassing situation in public.
I have a hint of a Southern accent, but it’s not very noticeable. Except Siri can’t understand me unless I speak like a robot.

You can tell a man is homosexual from the way they talk.
Cats take a wide path and dogs snarl.

A woman once described it to me as, “They walk like they are trying to carry a corn cob without using their hands.”
Normal people can also imitate being mute, or having Down's Syndrome - but that doesn't preclude those conditions being congenital or even genetic in origin.

You’ve got it.
You should have mentioned your previous suspicions to your audiologist; he might have had an interesting (scientific) explanation!

Easily. The little boy lisp and baby talk words give it away. Homosexuality is all about sex with children. Homosexuals must recruit and children are the easy targets for them.
I rest my case!

So on this day when I was listening, and I thought, "I wonder what the issue is of that gay guy?" Because he clearly sounded gay. I keep listening, and he is fretting about coming out to his family. I'm was like, "Dude, I figured out you were gay in 10 seconds of listening to you. Your family knows"
Sure! You just keep telling yourself that!
(Heh-heh!)
Regards,
My observation is that most also typically tend to consistently walk faster, at least outside.
I called bs. It’s really nothing more complicated than an affectation.
Who needed research for this conclusion? Enter: Sylvester the Cat.
I have always thought the speaking issues was advertising availability for a good time. I have also noticed that when speaking in a gay affected voice, the tongue is often visible. When people speak, the tongue is hidden and not put up front for further advertising.
it’s a lie. The “gay” voice is a “voice” some “gay” men acquired through assouciation with peers who already spoke that way. It is an acquired thing, not a “natural” thing “because they are gay”. Millions of undetectable “gay” men can attest to that. The scientists must have drawn all their sample cases only from “gay” men with the acquired “gay voice” and left out any “gay” men who did not have it.
