Over in the Men Going Their Own Way subreddit, the guys don’t seem to care much for women’s speech patterns, and would probably prefer it if women didn’t (or couldn’t) speak at all.
“Is it just me or do american women sound like men?” wonders someone called SorryDevelopment2888 in a recent thread. Most of the commenters, naturally, agree.
According to Unforsaken_Dick,
American women are just more masculine in general compared to other women from different countries. So many girls here in the states talking like dudes now, even saying Bruh Bruh and shit lol.
Bulletproofmonk thinks that women lack femininity in general:
the “feminine” traits have been branded as bad, and products of “THE PATRIARCHYY!!!!! REEEEEEEEEEEE”
the historically typical feminine traits like being soft spoken, being polite, submissive in a sense, wanting to be a home maker and wife, or a dedicated mother has all gone out the window. since now anything goes, there are no repercussions for bad behavior, and no standards.
why try when they get simps lining up at their tinder profile or money from onlyfans.
How many women do these guys think are on onlyfans anyway?
Variedpageants has a theory as to why American women’s voices have allegedly gotten more manly:
Its because modern day feminism is lesbianism thats why, being a lesbian is all about being a weak replacement of a man
ThereIsAlwaysVanilla has a rather different theory:
Vocal fry. American women suffer from it because they have been guzzling too much dick and get chronic throat infections and warts. It’s disgusting.
Scaryunderwear thinks most women can’t manage a really manly voice:
[T]hose females don’t sound like men at all. It’s obvious those females have poor self-images and are trying to mimic mens voices but instead they are failing miserably & completely.
Women now are speaking louder in normal conversation to the point of yelling, use vocal fry to cackle like witches, they drawl every vowel 20x longer than normal, and inflect the last word so every sentence sound like a questION. Men don’t talk like that. Well some men do, something like 1 in 30, and of course females when twittering in their echo chambers will ignore the 29 smooth deep masculine voices and focus on that one man as evidence that all men talk this way too..
The snu-snu amazons from Futurama sound (and sometimes look) more feminine than most women today.
Meanwhile, Third_Gray_Monkey seems to have lost touch with reality due to playing too many video games.
I dunno man but where I live I think all women have just a couple of sets for voices. I mean, they speak like if they were NPC’s [non-player characters] with just two or three different voices, all of them sound exactly the same.
This is what happens when you only talk to imaginary women in video games. Keep it together, man!

To this day, I cannot perceive whatever vocal fry is supposed to be.
I assume most of these men are younger than me and they grew up on the same planet watching women work, teach, create and do all manner of things yet somehow they act like they’ve just arrive from some idealized 50’s world where all the women are silent tv moms who bake cookies all day and they’re disgusted at the notion of the freedoms we have. How the hell do they end up this way, thinking we should be submissive, sweet and silent?
You know, like, there are, like, some stereotypically feminine, like, ways of speaking? And if you use those, like, you’re definitely going to, like, get mocked? That could be, like, one reason, like for the bruhs, bruh.
Oh look, you even brought it up here, using a like, general incelized you. Can’t win with these guys.
Of course that’s the point, but still.
@Carla Van Der Meer
Well, at least some of the time, it’s extreme conservative-religion-based. I was gonna go into more personal detail relating to some unfortunate male relatives but eh. Who wants to rehash that shit right now. Fuck ’em.
So guzzling dick makes a person masculine? And that’s why lesbians are only weak versions of men? According to this hypothesis, straight women and gay men are the most masculine people on the planet. And all these Miggi wannabe-alphas just need a grindr account.
“Vocal fry”? I have never heard of this term before, but I assume it refers to a particular timbre that is a normal feature of the spoken Swedish language. A soft, high-frequency purr on some of the long vowels. Some English dialects do this, too. Yet another example of Miggsi getting their knickers in a twist about something that has nothing to do with them.
Edit: I looked it up. Because my phone speaks German to me, I got some nice, informative hits before all the judgemental misogynist articles. The German word translates as “undertone singing”, something that professional baritones do to extend their vocal range downwards. If only they knew they could just guzzle dick instead of all that vocal training!
Our society take more seriously people that have deeper voice, and overall see women with higher pitch as more attractive.
There’s also some evidence toward women in decision position lowering their voice. Probably because they feel more in control that way.
Knowing that, the drivel here is basically a bunch of misogynists crying over women who aren’t trying to maximize their attractiveness and might even, gasp, try to have responsibilities. How horrible.
@ dali
Glad someone else said that. I just presume it’s this?
@alan & dali
Mariella Frostrup – that’s vocal fry. (Alan probably alreadys knows what she sounds like!)
I had to look it up a while back when it came up in conversation.
Well, golly gee gosharooni. I wonder who’s been branding feminine traits as bad?
They’re not having a good self-awareness day, are they?
@Threp
She sounds like any other lecturer or television presenter surely? When I was in theatre we called that “projection.”
@Ohlamnn
These men who go there own way are really angry women aren’t chasing after them.
@Buttercup Q. Skullpants
Well they should ignore the mockery and be comfortable being inferior for the sake of men/s.
I wish all the brainpower these guys waste could be directed to something more useful, like road repair.
No, this is why women sound like NPCs:

@Jon:
“These men who go there own way are really angry women aren’t chasing after them.”
By Jove, I think Jon’s nailed it!!!
Just because no woman wants to suck these particular guys’ dicks doesn’t mean the ladies are out there sucking everyone else’s. Lern2logic, boys.
Also, I’ve been openly cursing since the 70s, so it’s not like this is a new thing, bruh. “Dude” has been a genderless term since at least the 80s, so I see no reason “bruh” shouldn’t evolve the same way.
I live in California. Everyone and everything can be “dude!” Presumably the young’uns prefer “bruh!” And I can’t tell WTF vocal fry is, except it’s different from uptalk? Which is totally different?
Please stick to your video game, anime, and inflatable women. Please live up to the term MGTOW, bruh.
@Dalillama
This vocal coach has a good description and example of vocal fry. Fast forward to around 3:45 for the relevant part of the video

@ Dalillama:
Letting the terminal sound sort of buzzily trail off, for want of a better description.
