I'm a cis man :grillman: and I trained my voice just because I didn't like it and now everyone constantly tells me how great my voice is

So ladies, the lesson here is you just need to develop a good deep baritone and people will love you

I know you mean well, but Im struggling to understand how this would apply outside of your particular circumstance.

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I was joking, because usually mtf voice training does the opposite, ergo my stupid advice literally does not apply outside of my particular circumstance

If it offends i can remove it

[–] Gay_Tomato@hexbear.net 2 points 7 months ago (2 children)

No worries. Its on me for not noticing the obvious sarcasm. XD failure

tbf the idea of a petite traditionally pretty trans girl opening her mouth and revealing a Barry White voice sounds awesome too

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

yeah... when I was more actively doing it I started noticing how many people put on their voices in dah to day lives. being able to just speak as yourself is great actually. everything is performative bullshit.

seriously I started transitioning seven years ago, I look, dress, and sound the same, and as long as i'm at home with my partner I am extremely comfy with myself. it's other people who can't get it.

I tricked myself into doing voice training mostly by teaching myself to sing, it is funny to be able to hit really high notes at least, what a party trick, if I went to parties.

I do detest my speaking voice though, internationalised bullshit, oh yeah. the voice I use when I speak to dogs is alright though.

sorry i'm a real emotional wordy bug today, weird week, weird life.

[–] Jenniferrr@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

I've had a weird month. A crystal girl told me it was the eclipse coming, and I'm really hoping she's right

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I only voice trained enough for it to sound androgynous and freak people out. A very funny bit screm-cool

[–] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

Transitioning while trolling the cissies in the process. trans-undertale

[–] lapis@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

while I don't think trans women should need to voice train, this is actually a just-for-fun transition goal of mine! did you have a professional voice coach, or are there some resources you used?

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You know TransVoiceLessons on youtube, I tried desperately to overcome my autism and understand which parts of my throat she is talking about. I think I have the basic idea of it down at least, I can make funny vocalisations c:

TransVoiceLessons

she's so cool, I need to actually train instead of just watching her videos some day.

I tried desperately to overcome my autism and understand which parts of my throat she is talking about.

oh my god this is such a mood. I always have either direct control of a body part and no ability to use muscle memory, or I am incapable of finding the specific muscles I'm supposed to be using because that function of my body is so autonomous.

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 0 points 7 months ago (2 children)

She's kinda based, I like her albums too, cool stuff.

I know right?? I can do various things with my larynx sometimes but I have very poor control over it honestly, it's hard trans-heart

[–] lapis@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

honestly super mad that I got made fun of so much for practicing different voices as a kid that I stopped, imagine if I'd kept that vocal flexibility through to now and could just slip into masculine, feminine, or androgynous voice at will.

[–] JohannaChittarra@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I met her once on her discord and was a bit disappointed just because she went off on a whole assimilationist rhetoric with me and everyone in the call, ugh Never meet our heros, kill ya idols trans-sad

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

NOOOOOO WHAT THE FUCK, I rescind my statement, re-education time. I hate this, never meet ya heroes indeed hst-gun

[–] ultraviolet@hexbear.net 4 points 7 months ago

It would be cool to have the ability to from a high pitched "girly" voice to a very deep "manly" voice and fuck around with people but I'm still too lazy to train trans-sad

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The pressure for women to sound like high pitched babies is real and sucks

[–] ultraviolet@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

Cis people are very lobotomized when it comes to anything gender related

[–] Mickmacduffin@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Sorry, but you gotta have at least 3 silly voices before we can be friends. Cis people included

[–] Sons_of_Ferrix@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

All mine just devolve into "Irish man"

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Aye, can ye do a Sco'ish one?

[–] Sons_of_Ferrix@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

Just turns into Irish again

[–] SnowySkyes@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

It’s rough. It takes a lot of time and effort to get from A to B. It took me about 7 or 8 months to get from male to female voice. Granted this is through me simply never using my old voice ever again after learning the most basic techniques of voice training. Kinda forced the matter.

Also, considering the overall opinion here, I actually feel shamed on occasion for actually doing it and I really hate it.
