There is a lot of new research on the 'gay accent' or 'gay voice' - and why it might be that gay men and gay women speak differently than hetero people

As a voice actor, I can say absolutely yes there is a voice they put on whether it be consciously or subconsciously. It’s all the same voice impression.
So someone can speak like the bearded fella from ASAPScience in regular life, but then if he gets hypnotized, he sounds like some deep-voiced, masculine Russian stud?
though you say subconsciously it's put on too, so I am not sure what you mean then.
Yep, though what I never get is, aside from being attracted to other males, or whomever, which is fine... what's the reason for what frankly sounds like some sorta "affectation", and kinda like an _exaggerated_ version of what women act and sound like? 'Cuz even women never sound like that, at least the ones that I've known.
You're in the entertainment industry (an industry that is very LGBT friendly) yet here you are perpetrating lies that bigots think will justify their prejudice and attacks against us. Wild hill to die on.

That Buzzfeed quiz I took on Facebook in 2011 said I was straight. Are you telling me that wasn't scientific enough?
Not possible, its common knowledge that Buzzfeed quizzes are scientifically ironclad.

@@joshiepoohgetting their news from Buzzfeed triggers the gaydar, taking a quiz on Buzzfeed locks it in. LOL!
As a straight man from a relatively conservative country, me modulating the pitch of my voice has been a perfectly conscious thing to do for years. I've realized since I was a teenager that there is a certain group of people who will only listen to you if you're doing a Tom Waits or Leonard Cohen impression, and having a deep voice myself, I've certainly used that to my advantage. I've also employed that voice when I was a teacher and when I'm speaking to a large group in general. It does work for me when I need it, but it's very dumb that speaking in such a voice makes people listen more, to say nothing of it being unfair to those who can't use that voice.
Conversely, as an AFAB person with a high-pitched voice, I wish I could modulate my pitch to be taken seriously by that same subset...
What's AFAB?
@@EspeciallyElyou probably can! if you want, you can look up voice masculinization/voice training videos. im trans and those helped me a lot. it does take practice and can be pretty difficult at times but totally worth it to me

It’s called code switching. Changing your manner of speech and mannerisms depending on the people around you.
Or communication accommodation theory
@@creativename3256Thank you! I did my thesis on that and was about to comment. I think code switching refers to multi-lingual contexts. Also, there is Interactive Alignment Theory which explains how people adapt their speech but which somewhat disregards the important social factors. :)
I've seen much less discussion of code-switching with regard to multi-lingual situations than to multi-cultural situations. There're a lot of words spent on the topic of codeswitching with regard to dialects and vernacular.
At the same time there's a comment like 5 down from this one about English or Spanish, so, maybe I'm full of shit.
Everyone does this. You don't act the same way around your family as you do your friends or coworkers.
I thought about this too. I think there’s a couple more factors too it as well though, like the ones discussed in the vid
I've always been curious on this topic, glad you finally tackled it!

Only accurate if that person was born after 2001. Normal people don't speak that way.
It sounded like he turned straight for a second.
I actually laughed out loud when he said that.
*the part where you try to sound normal
Unfortunately the question of why the voice exists wasn’t answered. You did show it is quantifiable, but the reasoning behind its existence is still a mystery to me.
That's because it's 100% performative and they know it.
I think it's like an accent. It's difficult to pin down when and why some group(s) of people start talking in a particular way, but as time passes the original reason fades away and the subsequent generations are just imitating the previous. Go to another region for an extended period and notice how you end up unconsciously talking like the locals to fit in.
@@ruraladventurer1884Nah, I think most of heterosexual men are not aware that their artificial way of speaking in a limited range of pitch and trying to not maintain vowels too much is performative.
@@ruraladventurer1884 Except no it isn't for the reasons stated in the video, homophobe.
@@julenexposito6910 You're doing what most hetero men do NOT do. So, YOU are the performative ones. SWWWWEEEEEEAAAAATTTYYYYYYY

I also change the pitch of my voice when I'm talking to your dogs.
I do something similar with the cat and 2yr old hoomans.
Oh yeah, cat voice is its own thing too. Mine sounds like a straight up maniacal baby voice and my cats go nuts for it.
I learned as a kid to talk to cats and dogs in a higher pitch, because it gets their attention. It's better for their range of hearing and they know you're talking to them. People that talk to their pets like they're human are weird.

@@kyurei4478😂
This is about voices
it is genes and hormones, after all.
They are born this way!
Never judge!
so they can find each other...
So basically all of us change our voice given the circumstance.
"...from low to,, ʰʰⁱⁱⁱⁱᵍʰ !!!" 😂
Basically it's like an accent, so it's not entirely a random phenomenon.
My hypothesis is that it’s a combination of acting / theater backgrounds and wanting to sound less “threatening” than other men. From there, it took off as a shared accent. I’m sure someone could do the research to figure out where it started.
@@username00009my guess is that they start sounding more like women so they do an exagurated teen girl sccent
So, the opposite to Obama… he starts high, then ends low. 😂
We all kind of change our voice when talking to different groups and genders. I noticed this when my son was four and started to tell me that he didn't like how people spoke to him. I had trouble figuring out what he meant as he couldn't put it into words. I listened in to his conversations at the park, with adults and children, and realized that people assumed that he was a girl because of his long hair. He didn't want to cut his hair so we tried a kind of "messy" low ponytail and extra "masculine" clothing (like dinosaurs, Star wars and khaki shorts) but people kept saying "sweetie" to him, it seemed to get worse for him because they perceived him as a masculine girl and were trying to support "her" in this "you go girl" kind of way. He got more and more upset and shouted "I'm a BOY!!!" when anyone spoke to him. Finally he just cut his hair and didn't have any more problems.
very sad that our societal expectations trying to fit us into something binary affected your sons gender expression. reminds me of myself a month ago trying to find a hairdresser to just chop my hair off in a unisex cut because I just wanted to get rid of my ponytail and not ask me for double the amount they would to a man just because i'm born with a vag!na. I'm a Demi-Girl btw, born female but my gender expression is between female and non-binary.
like I didn't want a fancy or even feminine cut at all, just an extremely simple one where I wouldn't look ridiculous. the shortest you can cut with scissors, all around the head. If a clipper had a setting to that length i would of done it myself.
Sad
@@tornadodee148I don’t think it’s the societal binary thing, OP even said people were trying to support the androgyny but it was just a boy that liked long hair. That’s not a gender thing
@@tornadodee148I want a clipper with a longer setting too!
Wow🥺
This is perhaps your best video yet! It explains a lot-which is appreciated!
This was fascinating, thank you!
That "k, what?" at 2:14 is the most relatable reaction.
What
I wonder if these studies looked into affectation. Affectation can become so habitual that it evolves into a stable aspect of a person's speech, effectively becoming part of their accent. This process involves both cognitive and social factors, leading to the internalization of speech patterns that were initially adopted deliberately. As these patterns become habitual, they lose their conscious, performative nature and become a natural part of the individual's speech repertoire.
isnt vocal fry/creaky voice an affectation? this is probably a similar type of thing.... you do it for so long, it just becomes what you do...
@@xisotopex I don't think so. I think that's actually a variation in the larynx as the vocal cords vibrate. Of course, someone can play it up or down.
Would this be then consider as an accent rather than a Affectation? The inception of it might've had some version of affectation due to social environments, but just as any accent it was evolved and adapted culturally.
@@Josue-cy3sk Thank you for the insightful question. My inquiry was whether any studies have investigated the distinction between affectation and accent, or the impact of affectation on accent development. Since my initial post, I have researched this topic further and found that a few studies have considered affectation. These studies concluded that, in some cases, affectation could either be merely an affectation or one of the many variables contributing to the development of an accent. However, the studies did not provide clear percentages.
Affectations differ from accents in that they are deliberate rather than arising from natural adaptive processes. This distinction prompted my question: To what extent is an accent shaped by cultural surroundings and subconscious adaptation, versus how much is influenced by artificially induced affectations that later become ingrained?
It is exactly affectation. A mating call shared by a subspecies where visual clues are not always adequate for determination. Examples gym, workplace, subway.
In a society, the way everyone speaks is performative. Our style of speech inherently conveys a message about ourself to others in every single interaction. We learn many of these standards in early childhood, and throughout the rest of our lives. These ideas are also reinforced or challenged with every interaction we participate in and witness. Your style of speech is directly informed by ideas about how you should talk based on your gender, orientation, socioeconomic status, racial/ethnic identity, and much more. There isn’t such a thing as a speaking style that isn’t performative.
This is an interesting topic. Since I was a young child I've always seen communication as the words spoken, the way they are spoken, the body language, the eyes, blink rate, STRESS IN THE FOREHEAD, stance, direct or indirect response... etc. and felt that the words spoken made up quite a bit less than 50% of what I needed to know about the information exchange. One example where I have been very successful is determining that someone is left handed (as I am) within the first few moments of the exchange.
I can only go as far as "way are spoken" and some parts of body language, everything else sounds something only a lie specialist/mentalist would be able to pick up?
as a Bi person I’ve thought about my speech in relation to passing for straight a lot. Interesting stuff thank you!
I'm a straight guy but people always tell me how soft I speak. And the voice modulation explanation makes a lot of sense. I remember very vividly when I was around 13 and the other boys started practicing their "manly" deep voice to sound more adult and more male. I think they did it without even noticing, kind a like a social pressure. But for some reason I noticed and I for me it was ridiculous so never bothered.
That's too bad. I feel for you. Some of us discover very late that Exercising muscles > not exercising muscles, including the voice.
True individuality right there! Don’t be a copycat, everybody’s voice is probably a lot more different than what it seems but we won’t ever know how different everyone is because of peer pressure.
Having a soft voice is actually quite comforting to many people. It’s why David Attenborough is very popular as well. :)
@@OdaKa does deepening your voice exercise it? Does lightening it? Or playing around in general with it. Actually curious
@@plantinapot9169 Yes

Amazing video! I mean yeah, we all knew the answer already, but adding the scientific element and spotting the differences in such a systematic manner is absolutely amusing.
Thank you. This is the exact kind of trivia I like learning.
I live in NYC. I was told by many people that I have jew face. I am actually catholic. but old Jewish women love me.
You probably have ashkenazi DNA 😊 there are features visible in many of the faces.
I get mistaken for Jewish sometimes. My nose is the thing I think. I broke it when I was 14. Also I live in an area with a lot of Jewish people, which means people around here are already more primed to figure someone they’re randomly interacting with may be.
a similar thing happens to me. I'm a white brazilian with portuguese/italian heritage and people all around the world swear to God I'm arab hahaha I guess it's mediterranean thing where italian, portuguese, spanish and greek men are like the "white" version of arabs
My (very Catholic) grandfather was often mistakenly seen as Jewish. We had our DNA ancestry done fully expecting to find Jewish ancestry, but we have none. My grandfather owned his own business in a city in New Jersey that has a large Jewish population, so maybe he just had social characteristics of Jewish people.
Same, I've been mistaken as Jewish before but I'm mostly Italian and Polish
Interesting video, however you didn't really explicitely answer the question "why" but you showed that it's true. My understanding it that it's a social subconscious strategy for better interactions with people.
3:53
I think the point of the video was to examine where or not there was a difference by examining empirical evidence. The why could take up its own video.
@@jm7804the title says why. This should have been that video
@@jm7804they literally actively choose to sound different when they make the conscious decision to utter a noise that much didn't need explaining they aren't just cursed to talk like that because they want to sit on a point instead of a surface
I guess it's valid to only have theories on why, especially if they're backed up by actual observations that could lead you to think that.
Your videos make learning so enjoyable. Keep up the great work!
I've always noticed a prevalent pitch up on the last syllable of a sentence, making it almost sound like a question.
This is fascinating! Thank you. As someone who studied linguistics in college, I loved the aspect of “code-switching,” which refers to how people switch languages or linguistic patterns based on their audience. I once saw a woman chatting with friends in English pop off a quick comment in ASL (American Sign Language), followed by a question to another student in her native Mandarin - without missing a single beat. That’s an extreme example, but your discussion of modulating voice pitch as a means of identifying in-group and tempering conversation with out-group members (there’s a pun in there somewhere that turns those designations on their heads…) just blew me away. Excellent post! Again: Thank you.
I'd love if they'd answer the question instead of giving half information, whoring out their other products, and then give a blatantly wrong guess given the content they just communicated and then end the video.

LMFAOOOOOOO!!!
Huh?
I watched a whole documentary about this on Hulu. Good stuff
That was truly a very very good video. I could have listened to you for hours. God bless.
My read has always been that straight men are confined to percievedly masculine signifiers. Considering how a lot of studies of men's mental health focus on the societal expectation that they aren't allowed expression outside of anger etc. it stands to reason that when a man comes to terms with the Idea that they aren't like most other men, they become a lot more sincere in various ways, vocal expression being one of them.
Finally some good insight under this video lol
what about men that aren't in normal societal groups or are just kinder/not angry. They sound straight to me still
Definitely not.
Sometimes men are just masculine and quite happy to be.

Actually, it should've been all the way "ah", "eh", "ee", "oh", and "oo", since we're talking about the basic vowel sounds, not the names of the letters used to represent them.
'U' is just the Y 'ya' sound before the 'OO'
@@Lernos1 U is still pronounced ‘you’ though. Uniform not ooniform.
@@ThomashorsmanEnglish isn’t phonetically consistent tho. Yes, you’re right about “uniform“ but what about “unimportant“ or “Jupiter“? The U is pronounced differently in every example. There are even words in the English language that are spelled exactly the same but pronounced differently depending on the meaning, e.g. “The wind blows“ and “I need to wind down“.

It's quite masculine and aggressive sounding (if you're butch), femmes are way harder to notice imho
I'm guessing its in a butch way
From watching videos of both straight and lesbian women do gaming live streams, a pattern I noticed is that the lesbian women sound, I'm not sure if this is the right way to put it, somewhat more masculine than the straight women. But just like they said in this video, it's not quite the same kind of masculine sound as a straight man talking.

Hearing you pronounce "men" as a three-syllable, pitch-shifting "mehh-ehhh-ehhn" puts all of this in perfect context 😂 Thank you for always sharing such wonderful scientific insights with us! Great video as usual :)
This is interesting. We all code switch and modulate our voices for different audiences and contexts to some extent. I would still like to know more about the origins and reasons for these specific speech patterns and mannerisms.
This was so interesting. Using science to help understand certain characteristics of people is in my opinion the only process to understanding. I go further by using the metaverse to explain certain characteristics.
Thank you! I'm fascinated by how people speak, accents, dialects, and all, and I looked for anything on this subject for years with no luck. This is the video I've been waiting for. Great stuff!
When I'm with straight friends, my tone and even vocabulary changes naturally to suit who I'm with. Versus when I'm with women and my voice naturally changes as if to say "I'm not a predator. I'm a friend"
I’ve noticed this too with myself and it’s not like I do it on purpose I just realise I’m doing it randomly
Wow same
Explicitly signalling "Im not a predator" is exactly what a predator would do.
@@dreadwinter I think what he meant or more what I meant is that it’s us signaling we just want a friendship and nothing more because if you’re really close to a straight female and you as a male are thought to be straight, for example, the relationship might go a totally different direction.
Having the thought at all that a relationship which involves a woman MIGHT "go a totally different direction" is a predatory thought.
I like how you put “like that”
And everyone knew exactly what you were talking about
Love you guys channel, both informative and funny. lol.
Love it!!!
I'm a straight man and I like your channel because no matter the subject you guys tell the truth. I don't have to fact check. Plus I love your positive and humorous attitude, who doesn't want that. Thank you. When you get the lesbian thing figured out, please let us know, I've made this mistake often, I haven't got a clue, unless that's just another...
Sounds like lazy behavior. Just because someone sounds factual or provides statistics/research doesn't make their information true. It's well known that sounding confident makes people more likely to believe you, but you should still do your due diligence and look things up. Even guys like Louis Rossmann, who go against the grain and try to provide accurate information with tons of links to back up his claims and arguments, will tell you not to believe him and go look for yourself. It's how guys like Andrew Tate and Fresh n' Fit got so many young guys to follow them. 80% of their rhetoric is the truth or is at least seemingly true about the pandemic modern males face, but the last 20% is just them spewing bullshit philosophies and leading them astray so they can peddle their merch and empty those young men's money.
