- A talk about the crucial function of our voice as part of our identity, and what that means to people who have transitioned from one gender to another. Singing, it turns out, is a really powerful tool in making changes, as is an acceptance of vulnerability.
Gillie Stoneham is a voice therapist and voice coach, and has worked
for many years, both clinically in the field of gender identity and with
professional voice users. Her work draws on her own passion for both
singing and spoken voice and understanding the power of voice in
expressing emotion and identity.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
inspiring - our voices reveal who we are and it takes courage to be vulnerable and express our true selves
I practice my voice while I'm at work! I just train it to where I like it but I'm still a little iffy about the right pitch. Got inflection down. It's so wonderful to hear my girl voice and really helps me pass. It's really good for my dysphoria.
Wonderful talk and very inspiring, I had settled into complacency and this has certainly inspired me and given me hope.
I love how I came here for words of encouragement and it turned out to just be voice lessons!! Boy oh boy that title
Beautiful!
I have Gillie Stoneham's book and it is fantastic, I used it together with my voice therapist, but difficult to master, the time to practice is lacking me.
you are probably what's wrong with society/people
@@jameswood120 no u
I wish you the best. Remember that your voice does not determine your gender.
My niece has a super deep voice. She was born with a deep voice.
It's all about the R1
You sure your not training us for AI technology aka robots? Using our kids as a way to BETTER ACCEPT THE NON BINARY WHATEVER. Its a great analogy to try to EXPLAIN changing the human ide identity...lmao
I sure hope not! I'm a transwoman and technology scares me!
seeing as robots that are created have voices fitting in with stereotypes of a binary system your argument is non sequitor
Instead of supporting it...actually get people the help they need
Like voice therapy
You can't brainwash someone into faking their gender expression for your comfort, that doesn't work
@@rainjaydd8213 Tell that to all of the detransitioners. 🙄
This is a question of identity, and it's damn important. Yes it's respectful to the person to support their identity. If you think it's a mental illness, you are misinformed.
@@MustyUnderboob There are very, very few detransitioners, gender transition has some of the highest levels of satisfaction and lowest levels of regret of any medical procedures.
@@robokill387 Prove it.
When the mind do not match the body, why is it the body that is required to change ? The physical is irrefutable.
Would brainwashing be easier for you?
Because you can't change the brain without changing who they actually are.
