Thoughts on an alternative to a femme voice

I really don't worry about it so I use my voice only its softer side.
I deal with hearing loss too so that doesn't help.

I think that trying to change your pitch and really mimic a naturally born female is nearly impossible for most of us. But learning how a woman talks, the articulate way that she says words... that's beautiful. And authentic. I've know quite a few trans girls that have deep voices but still talk in a wonderful and delicate female cadence. It changes everything about how they communicate.. and I believe that any of us can learn how to do that if we put our minds to it.

I like this perspective on it. Do what feels authentic to you, and realize that while there will always be some hints that prevent paying to everyone, do what you want to pass for your version of you.

I can't say exactly what I sound like because of those problems , I guess it's partly why I don't try a female voice , I wouldn't hear myself at all !

The human voice isn't up there in the high frequencies with the mosquito ringtones where tinnitis occurs; that's the ringing in the ears which is so common. If you can't hear a young child or high pitched woman speaking, it's not the higher frequencies that you need to worry about, because you're already deaf! The human voice is normally under 500 hz. Here's a 1khz tone:

Stereo speakers often boast about their ability to reproduce 20 hz to 20,000 hz. But you'll rarely hear anything even remotely close to that. A high pitch trumpet is less than 1khz. FM radio maxes out at around 10,000 hz.

That said, there are lessons available to those who wish to change their voice. But it's not simple, and it requires lots of practice to get it right.
