Even more changes!!

[Sakura Kinomoto]

Hi girls well I am starting to have more changes.I dont know what it may be casuing them,but now my voiced is changin as well.I have some croosdresser friends who are really stunned about me,a friend of mine,who is a genetic girl has accepted me as who I am already and noticed that my voice doesnt sound male at all anymore.

My friends tell me that I am pretty and it is time for me to accept my true female identity with the changes that I am having.So,what do you think?

And honestly I feel and think like a girl!:o :o

From what I have read about the effects of HRT, it's rare for the voice to change, but it apparantly does change a bit in some rare instances, you might be one of those people. It's also possible that you have an intersex condition that doesn't show physically, but responds to the change in hormones better than what would be normal for the male body.
I assume that you're taking HRT, if you're not, then I'd guess that you definitely have an intersex condition helping you to bring out the female in you. You sound happy with the changes, that's what's important. Let us know what happens as you continue down this path.

unless your really working on your voice i would say it's all in your head. and not in a oh your just thinking it way.
as your becoming more female and this is what you want deep within your mind it's sorta calming and allows you to be more at ease. things should tend to flow more easily i believe the mind can change the body. but i always question to what extent, and to what extent is it that the mind is just seeing what it wants to see. as well it can be a combination of many things. this along with possibly being on hrt or vocal training which i dont know if your getting ether. also the fact that you are more accepted then you where before just makes matters seem even bigger. all and all nice to hear your having success but on a side note. please take it easy one step at a time. today's triumph can be tomorrow's down fall.

In my own case, I was a DJ years ago and trained my voice to go a bit deeper to speak on the radio. It is naturally in the baritone range. But I've done some acting onstage (community theater) and have some range and flexibility in my voice. I've trained myself to sound reasonably feminine. The hormones may not have raised the pitch of my voice, but I feel that they gave me a bit of an edge.

All I can say about my changes is that one night I started feeling weird in my throat,and the next morning my voice started to change.

I am staring to have some acceptance by some people,mostly female friends,who agreed even to call me by my female name.My real female name isnt Sakura,you know,that is a name I choose for this board,but my girl name is Liliana,I like how it sounds.Anyway,I still dont know how far these changes
will go,one thing is for sure,my dream of becoming a woman could be a reality after all!!!I am glad this is happening to me...

On one of the radio stations that I listen to, there's a woman DJ who's voice goes down almost as far as mine does, I've been trying to copy her voice and find a female sound in my voice, I have to raise the pitch, but not that much. stopping the lower resonance is the hard part of voice training.

Friends are (unfortunately) not reliable when it comes to evaluating how feminine your voice sounds. I had one female friend tell me that my unaltered male speaking voice sounded fine to her, which was regrettably not really true. On both voice and physical presentation, what friends and relatives tell you reveals more about them than it does about yourself.

The two best indicators for how you are doing on your voice (aside from going to a professional voice therapist) are 1) recording your voice and playing it back so that you can hear it; and 2) seeing how strangers on the phone gender you. If strangers on the phone sometimes (or always) call you sir, then you still have work to do. If they consistently call you ma'am or miss, then you are doing pretty well.

very good points. also friends/family hear you often and tell you what you want to hear. for me i work at a Fast Food Place and work our drivethrough alot. the normaly people who know me dont say anything. but when i get someone who does not know me i tend to get read as female which really makes me feel good. even better is the laugh i get as i am not out to any of my co-workers. but i think they suspect something. not that my voice over the head set is the only thing i do that can lead to me being read as femme.
