extreme voice goals

What gets me about voice training is that it seems to come so naturally for some people. I guess nobody tells you how long they've spent practicing, but it just feels like I have to work extra hard for awkward androgyny results.

the thing that worked best for me was to just use my andro-masc voice 24/7 while being anxious about not passing so I constantly forced it to be as good as possible. I stopped thinking about voice training and suddenly realized 1.5 years later that no one ever misgendered my voice anymore. ymmv

It's fucking hard, but you can do it! It's a long process, but the rewards are immense! It took me like 7 or 8 months to get to a passing voice and I'm still fine tuning it a year later (I still have trouble passing over the phone for some reason). Mind you that's with completely throwing away my old voice and never using it ever again and struggle bussing all the way here.
