My voice is very much on the deep side.

I remember my mother saying that she was so happy when puberty struck me. I guess I had a whiny, high pitched voice as a kid. Now it is much deeper. There's a thread in here for posting your voice. So I did & was told I'd be good for radio. I always thought I had a wet sounding voice for all the saliva I seem to produce!

I think I sound like a four year old. It's really awkward cos mum's phone records and echoes back what you're saying as mum's talking and I sound like a four year old, whatever I'm actually saying.

Then again, people ring our home phone who actually know mum and assume it's her talking because our voices are basically the same voice.

So apparently a 50 year old and a 30 year old both sound like a 4 year old. Or I'm too self-conscious.

Do you watch a lot of BBC programmes? When I was little, I watched Sesame Street a lot and had an American accent especially when counting and saying my ABC. I'm English.

And I support a Scottish team and when I either watch River City or the football, I sound Scottish. When I watch EastEnders I sound cockney etc. I pick up on the accents of media a lot.

I probably sound younger than I am. When I listen to recordings of myself talking, I hear that I talk much faster than I realise.

I have a bit of a strange voice, and it definitely isn't typical-sounding for a girl my age. It sounds childish to me, even though it's deeper than the voices of girls my age.

I don't believe "voice quality" marks somebody as being on the Spectrum. Autistic men almost always have "male" adult voices, autistic women almost always have "female" adult voices.

It's more like the "rhythm" one evinces when one talks.

I've had people sometimes perceived my voice as being not easily decipherable as, I'm not loud or that I'm somehow mumbling..

The most unpleasant thing that has happened from time to time is being misidentified as being female, no I have no feminine voice mannerisms nor characteristics, rather how often my voice is not deep nor sharp when heard over a telephone connection that is crappy from the other side that is.. :x

I hate my voice. But than I was always being told I talked too loud or to monotone. Not enough "inflection". Not enough this, too much that, etc. As a result, I grew up to hate the sound of my own voice.

I sound a lot younger than my age. I hate hearing my voice recorded.

I think my physical voice has two 'ages'.
One that matches my age and one that is half my age or less.
People who hears the latter may thought I'm around 12 and ask an adult if they heard it through the phone. The former may rather think I'm not in a mood or something... :|
It depends on my mood. The former is usually serious or level headed but there are times it doesn't have to be, while the latter is usually anything but serious but it do happens even if I'm truly being serious and level headed.

Nonetheless, both with same tones, same ranges, same accents, same rhymes... Many similarities, but also just as many differences.


I usually thought my voice had more range and tones when it actually isn't the case.

I don't know what would constitute a "younger then my age" kinda voice actually. I guess I sound fairly point on.
