CAN YOU TELL WHO’S GAY BY A VOICE?

According to research by Dr. Michael Bailey, it seems that gay men and women do indeed fit the stereotype of sounding more like the opposite sex of the heterosexual community.

His research finds the femininizing of men, and the masculinizing of women in the LGBT community. According to this “60 Minutes” story, the results do not hold true 100 percent of the time, but true on average.

This got me thinking… do I sound “gay?” What does “gay” sound like? Take the “Gay Voice Quiz.” Can you tell who is gay out of the 15 people represented?
