Do you have an unusual-sounding voice?

I sound like I have an accent.

no...I think I have a normalish voice

I don't have a Texas drawl, as one would imagine. I have a high-pitched voice, and I am sometimes mistaken for a woman when talking on the phone.

What kind of accent?

My voice is very soft and it usually trails off at the end of a sentence.

I think I sound geeky. I know what I consider a typical 'neurotypical' female voice and it's not like mine. Perhaps we should all record sound clips of ourselves and post them here. i don't know if I could bear to do that though..............

I used to be very ashamed of my voice. At school I would get made fun of because it was very high pitched.

I get mistaken for my dad on the phone all the time....the thing is, my dad sounds like a normal man. You know, deep manly voice.

Anyway, so I'm now 24 years old, and last month, a work colleague joked that I was going through puberty when I lost my voice for a week. This was the first time in years that I'd thought about how I hate having my voice recorded, because it doesn't sound like the way I do in my head - if that makes sense.

Now days, I just don't think about my voice. I don't really know how it happened, maybe because in the world of adults, people pretty much stopped making fun of it - don't really know. Writing this post is kinda bringing it all back :-S

Yeah i can do accents well from lots of countrys/regions.
Also when i speak a foreign language i pronounce things better than anyone else does.
This may be because pronounciation is so important to me.

Whenever i get called on the phone people just think my dad said his name unclearly.
So they always start talking as if they were talking to my dad.
I've had that since i was like a teenagers because i had an unusually heavy voice.

I have a deep and very monotonous voice and usually speak way to soft. Apparently what comes out of my mouth is to textbooky too. I've always lived in a region where most people speak dialects everywhere other then the workplace and yet I can't speak a word of any of them. Only General Civilized Dutch aka Algemeen Beschaafd Nederlands (ABN).

I do however understand dialects and languages really easily.
