@sapinker In my clinical practice I argue that a deeper voice may be 1 reason parents often report that kids listen more to dad than mom.

@sapinker What about intra-gender differences, or the conscious effort of some transgendered individuals to speak at different pitches? -

@Drpackman5000 No, stupid. I meant the way that some choose to alter how they speak to fit their true identity. Bye bye!

@sapinker Why are accents attractive? And we are some accents more attractive than others? -
@SeamusAPower@sapinker General theory is that they signal foreign-ness, therefore smaller risk of relatedness. -
@DanCassino@sapinker Plausible evolutionary theory. Accents are imbued with meaning - Irish (charm), French (sophistication) - cultural? -
@SeamusAPower@sapinker I think almost certainly the issue of which accents are better is going to be social; mostly class-based, I'd guess. -
@DanCassino@sapinker social class & cultural meanings as well as perceptions of both of these from the admiring person/group/nation. -
@SeamusAPower@sapinker Easy test of Ev psych hypothesis: women should find "high class" foreign accents more attractive, men shouldn't. -
@DanCassino@sapinker it will tell you something, but not the full story. Down to levels of analysis I guess. -
@SeamusAPower@sapinker These Ev psych hypotheses always very difficult to nail down.

@sapinker perhaps women's voices are higher! Females need to signal alarm piercingly. Males need power to communicate over distance...?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
