How to determine the type of voice and what types exist? Why are men attracted to a high female voice?
Each woman has her own ideal, it can be a hoarse voice, or a pure timbre, but I am one hundred percent sure that all women will unanimously say: “Of course, a low voice.”
Why is it so? Perhaps the answer is genetics - low voice = strength of mind = success. Success may include different parameters, but in any case, whether it is food production, that is, hunting (preference for women of ancient times), childbearing (value at all times) - all the same, the owner of a powerful voice will be perceived on a subconscious level as an alpha male, a kind of brutal macho , at whose feet all the individuals he meets on the way are thrown - some out of fear, some out of lust (depending on the situation or preferences).
“Where you don’t spit, some solid machos, but there are not enough men”
Although, again, the same scientists give hope: even if the male voice does not have such a strong charisma, it can still have an advantage for ladies. Guess why? It is unlikely that such a thing as loyalty will come to your mind. Yes Yes!
It is she who is faithful - it is believed that in men with high-pitched voices this quality is developed to a greater extent than in the representatives of the stronger sex, who, with their voice, roar and, of course, their mind, try to conquer as many women as possible. So, rejoice everyone - friendship has won! Someone wins, someone has the warmth of true love - there is plenty to choose from!
It has long been proven that testosterone affects the quality of the voice in men, but its role should not be exaggerated too much. A very low voice does not mean that this man has an excess of this hormone. If this were the case, then the entire bass part of opera houses would be observed by specialists - endocrinologists.
And vice versa, dear girls, I draw your attention to the fact that if a man can sing high it does not mean that he speaks high, or that he has low testosterone levels, most likely a man has a large range. The main thing is in what register he speaks.
The transitions from a whisper to a powerful chest tone saturate Miles' voice with overtones that are so pleasant for a woman's ear, and a large range and excellent technique allow him to hit high notes, both in the falsetto register and in the mixed register.
A little about the technique of male vocals: in the chest register, the vocal folds close tightly and oscillate with their entire mass. The arytenoid cartilages are also included in the vibration. This density of closure creates a rich, bright, strong and resonant voice. This takes up relatively little breath. In the falsetto mode, only the edges of the folds oscillate and a spindle-shaped gap remains between them, through which air flows freely. Therefore, the sounds of natural falsetto have a blown character, are poor in overtones and do not have much power.
Let's move on to pleasant things, so what attracts women to us in male voices?
Monotone male voice? Enemies are afraid, women love. Researchers from the University of California and the University of Pennsylvania found that women are turned on by a monotonous male voice. Not boring, but monotonous. Without transitions to high tones and excessive expressiveness.
A male monotonous voice is a sign of independence, power and strength. Such a person shows that he is in control of the situation. He is courageous and not afraid of danger. Women love that kind of voice. They subconsciously feel a man who can protect them in any situation.

What to do?
Get used to speaking calmly, without harshness and vain expressiveness. They are not afraid of those who speak emotionally, but of calm equanimity. There is more threat and warning in calm speech.
male whisper
Many men neglect to whisper. But in vain! Scientists have found that women are turned on by male whispers. Researchers argue that in words it is best to use hissing consonants (w, w, h, u). These sounds have the most exciting effect on the female mind and body.

What to do?
Tell the girl in a whisper in her ear: "Sasha walked along the highway and sucked dry." You can choose other words, but remember about hissing consonants!
This conclusion was made by scientists who published their article in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society. The authors note that the ability to determine the strength of the enemy through voice exists in animals, which is why it is possible that it is also present in humans. That is why the natural world is filled with many voices, thanks to which individual species of the animal world manage to profitably stake out the most profitable territory for themselves. In the animal kingdom, this is a normal phenomenon when rival individuals evaluate the strength of the enemy, for example, by a roar.
Instruction
Low female voice. Talented vocalists with deep voices are not so common. The contralto is the lowest. According to statistics, it is he who likes both men and women. The range from F of a small octave to G of the second octave sounds very deep and mysterious when singing, which cannot but attract attention. But if we are not talking about vocals, but about simple conversation, it is important that this does not sound nasal.
Hoarse voice. Such female voices like men. A little hoarseness in speech always sounds pleasant. Such a voice is erotic and sexy for the opposite sex. For women, it also sounds attractive, creating an atmosphere of warm friendly communication. A girl with a hoarse voice wants to trust and tell all her secrets. But even here there are extremes. A smoky voice does not deliver aesthetic pleasure when listening. Its owner is perceived negatively.
Chest tone. A deep voice, as if born in the chest, sounds like a motherly warmth. People instinctively listen to its owner and feel affection for her. This association originates from childhood itself. Psychologists say that it is with the owners of this timbre that men want to create families, and women want to enter into close friendship.
Velvety and quiet voice. Gentle whispers and calm, measured speech are the key to the trust of others. For a man, such a "" timbre subconsciously hints at an emotional connection, giving rise to affection. Girls see in a velvety-voiced adviser who deserves high trust. Quiet voices do not irritate, but make you listen. They have a magical attraction that creates the effect of a magnet. They seek understanding from such women, their amazing peace of mind helps relieve stress.
"Children's" voice. A slightly naive and sonorous voice is able to impress the interlocutors. Men like childishness in their voice, as it makes them want to protect the girl. Infantilism in timbre has a different effect on women. They do not see a rival in such a woman, which creates a feeling of inner relaxation in them. In addition, on a subconscious level, they see in her someone like a younger sister who is worth protecting and patronizing.
Sensual high voice. It cannot be said that only low voices evoke sympathy. The warm lyric soprano is noteworthy. If the delivered clear voice comes from the depth of the diaphragm, it is extremely pleasant to others. In the abundance of ordinary slightly noisy voices, the sonorous timbre of medium height makes it stand out from the general noise.

It is believed that men love low female voices. That's what the statistics say. However, a small survey conducted among my acquaintances suggests that a low voice is different for a low voice. So, despite the obvious advantages of the appearance of Elizaveta Boyarskaya, her voice attracts few people. Moreover, most men would have made their choice not in favor of such a woman precisely because of the unattractive voice. So what should a real woman sound like?
Psychologists believe that a woman's voice can tell a man a lot about her character and personality. This is not always true, but a certain image, nevertheless, develops. What can a woman's voice say to a man?
The low female voice is different. There are women with vocal cord problems or just smoky voices. Such men do not like unequivocally, simply because they sound the same as men. However, if a woman is the owner of a velvet voice, then she can consider herself truly fatal. After all, such a voice speaks of the self-sufficiency, strength and self-confidence of its mistress. It is difficult to possess such a woman, so a hunter wakes up in a man, and he begins to actively pursue her.
Like it very much men so-called "wet" voices. It is impossible to speak loudly and quickly with such a voice; it sounds beautiful only with slow, quiet speech, even with a whisper. This voice is truly feminine, it excites and lulls at the same time.
Also seduce a representative of the strong half of humanity maybe a breathy voice. Such a voice tells a man that he is desirable, that a woman is in a relationship, that she is ready for sensual love. This is a voice with a sexual connotation that cannot be unpleasant for a man.
High female voice adorns not every woman. And not every man is ready to perceive such a voice. Indeed, for many, a subconsciously high voice is associated with youth and immaturity, and therefore unpreparedness for adult relationships. However, if a man is set to communicate with an infantile girl and is ready to take responsibility for her, then a woman with such a voice will evoke only positive emotions in him.
Loud, harsh, staccato voice no one has positive emotions. So, for example, psychologists say that it is precisely children's and women's voices that are distinguished by loudness and sharpness that can cause panic in the crowd. This is how a man perceives a woman with a loud voice. It is impossible to relax with her, you cannot find peace, she does not cause passionate sexual desire. So if you are not too lucky with your voice, you should work on it.
How to develop a voice that will become your faithful companion in conquering a man?
Teachers of speech technique advise doing a few simple exercises in order to develop a beautiful voice.
For a start it's worth work on your body- after all, it is his stiffness that causes the tightness of the vocal cords. Stressed shoulders and neck, poor posture, chronic diseases - all this prevents your voice from breaking out. Do not forget about the importance of physical exercise - daily simple stretching exercises will help you relax the thoracic spine and pressure on the vocal cords. All this will allow your voice to sound softer and more sensual.
Sing! After all, singing not only relieves accent and speech problems (stuttering, for example), but also perfectly releases your true voice. If possible, take a few vocal lessons - an experienced teacher will show you breathing exercises. And do not forget to start every day with a song - this way you “cleanse” the speech apparatus, “wake up” the ligaments and all day you do not have to clear your throat before starting a conversation.
Read aloud good books. Voice the dialogues of lovers, trying to breathe life into them and your understanding of love. Alone with yourself, you will be able to translate into reality your idea of \u200b\u200bthe ideal voice, of how, in your opinion, a true declaration of love should sound. And only then, having practiced, it will be much easier for you to reproduce all this in reality - including in your own relationships.
Adjust the volume of your own voice. Do not speak too quietly - this is considered a sign of bad tone and disrespect for the interlocutor. At the same time, talking too loudly will alienate your counterpart and will not give you the opportunity to create the necessary intimacy and trust. So you should pay attention to the volume with which your interlocutor is talking and try to adjust to it. However, it is still better for a woman to speak a little quieter than a man, making the conversation pleasant and smooth.
To each his own approach
Each man is unique and requires a separate approach. You are unlikely to be able to charm different men in one way, so take a closer look at your potential companion.
A strong man can please a weak woman It makes sense, because opposites attract. And your voice will help you seem weak - speak quietly, smoothly, making pauses. Do not use obscene language, try not to raise your voice in any situations. A whisper, a quiet iridescent laugh, affectionate words - all this cannot be a truly strong man.
A soft and docile man requires a completely different approach. It is easier for him to feel that he is nearby woman you can trust who can take care and provide support. In this case, it is worth acting in contrast - if he speaks softly and smoothly, a woman needs to be able to clearly articulate her thoughts, not be afraid of specific expressions and power in her voice. All behavior show self-confidence, emotional stability and harmony with the outside world. In a word - do not be afraid to show maternal instinct, this is actually nothing special, because no one forces you to become his real mother, just be ready to meet the needs of a man who is dear to you.
In a word, if you do not want to become a chronic disappointment for your man, or for a man who is deeply sympathetic to you, work on your own voice - let it be a powerful weapon in the matter of seduction.
word of the expert
While working on the text, we consulted with a voice professional. Meet Natalya Olenchik, Candidate of Medical Sciences, professor, doctor of the highest category, homeopath, ENT specialist at the Institute of Contemporary Art. Before you move on to looking for jokes in this article, Natalya Vladimirovna asked you to read this in all seriousness: Dear readers! This article has collected basic recommendations that can help improve your voice. It remains for me to add that each person is individual and without a personal visit to the doctor it is difficult to say which advice should be taken into account in the first place. Specific example. The text says that smoking causes aseptic inflammation of the vocal folds. However, I happened to work with two patients who smoke a lot for a long time, but their folds remain absolutely healthy, and their voice does not change. Of course, we are talking about exceptions, but you need to understand that to one degree or another, each of us is an exception. I would recommend this article as a basic course for working on your own voice. For some this will be enough. For everyone else, after a few months of daily exercises, you need to contact a specialist to draw up a further lesson plan that will be adapted specifically for you. And remember that you can't change your own voice, you can only improve it. Separately, we note that the text is designed for healthy people without chronic diseases and pathologies in the larynx and the entire respiratory system. The recommendations do not apply to singers, actors and announcers: people in these professions need special exercises.
If you know that some annoyance can be changed, you try to fix it. The vision began to fall - I went to the optometrist. I didn’t like the body - I bought a fitness subscription. Tired of dragging a translator around with me, I put him back in the storage room and learned twenty languages. Dissatisfaction with our own voice is one of those annoyances that many of us put up with without even trying to fix it. To most, this seems as unlikely as living on Mars or winning the Russian figure skating team in the World Cup. Actually getting your voice to be the way you like it is not that hard. A little free time, a little patience and a lot of this article are enough. Do you need it? Surely you have met girls fanatically removing freckles; people with minus seven vision who stubbornly refuse to wear glasses, and men combing the scanty mop of remaining hair on the back of their bald heads. But, you must admit, there are many people who incredibly suit glasses, sparkling bald heads and girls with freckles. Why are we? Before you begin to improve your voice, you need to make sure that this is really necessary. We have compiled two lists of reasons that indicate that something needs to be done about your voice. The first list enumerates external causes, emanating from the surrounding reality. The second is your internal. External causes 1. The phrase “Repeat, please” from others you hear not much less often than “Hi!” or "How are you?" At the same time, you are absolutely sure that you speak clearly and loudly enough. “Whether a person will perceive what you say depends on the voice by 30–40%,” says Natalya Olenchik. It is probably because of him that people miss your words. 2. Unexpectedly for yourself, you can start or end a phrase in an unnatural voice: either too high or too low. In especially neglected cases, you, like a troll overeating sausage, squeal. 3. From time to time, honest people fall into your hands who say to your face that your voice does not match your appearance (age, social status, the number of hamburgers you can eat at a time) or is simply disgusting. Local causes Below are the main characteristics of the voice, which is worth working on. Our happiness if this list includes at least one epithet that characterizes the sounds you make, because in this case you will surely read this text to the end! You can mow down from reading only because of illness: in order to appreciate the sound of your own voice, you first need to be healthy (flat feet do not count). █ Too high.
█ Husky.
█ Nasal.
█ Trembling.
█ With hoarseness (rarely slipping "signature" hoarseness is not considered).
█ With shortness of breath.
█ Tense (strained, sharp - as you like). How to speak with your voice Another section that will help you to cherish the hope of the tolerability of your own voice for a while. It's possible you're making the wrong sounds. “People who speak unnaturally are quite common,” the expert says. “Moreover, a person usually does not realize the unnaturalness of his voice, he is used to speaking that way.” To start speaking (singing, screaming, boiling potatoes) with your own voice, you need to go through three steps. Let's take a closer look at three of them.
As we have already said, chronic diseases and the consequences of injuries do not count. “But even treatable ailments have a noticeable effect on the voice,” Natalya Olenchik encourages you to cure kleptomania. █ Diseases of the heart and/or lung system lead to shortness of breath, make the voice trembling.
█ Diseases of the nervous system and spine make the voice tense.
█ Mental disorders deprive the voice of emotionality and timbre colors.
█ Diseases of the reproductive system primarily strike at the psyche. And already she, having curbed a weak-willed person, makes the voice be deliberately courageous, which is audible to the naked ear. It’s not worth mentioning a cold and a sore throat separately (it’s better to cure them as soon as possible in order to start testing your voice) - except that our consultant advises not to whisper in case of an inflamed throat and ligaments. “To speak in a whisper, you need to have good speech training, trained vocal folds. To speak in a whisper during illness - even more so. When whispering, the vocal folds do not close and a lot of air passes unvoiced: the muscle fibers of the vocal folds are overstressed. That is, a whisper increases the tension of the speech apparatus at times, even in comparison with yelling or singing.
█ Speak out loud for 15 minutes. “If during this time discomfort or even pain appears in the larynx, it means that you are speaking in an unnatural voice for yourself. Usually the cause is not so much possible illnesses, but rather improper breathing and habits,” Natalya Olenchik is sure. The easiest way to identify your natural voice is by experimenting, trying to speak with the correct breathing (more on that later) and different pitches. And that's what. Even if you know exactly where your vocal folds are and are sure that they are not the ones that hurt when you speak, stop rejoicing. “The pain around the folds is directly related to the surrounding muscles. The folds themselves will never hurt, because there are no pain receptors there, ”explains our consultant. █ Try not to smoke for a couple of days. “Cigarette smoke causes aseptic inflammation of the folds,” says Natalia Olenchik. “The voice from this, of course, goes down, but due to the loose closure of the vocal cords, smokers get hoarseness.” Alcohol, by the way, contrary to popular belief, does not have a significant effect on the ligaments. █ The larynx is located at the level of the 4th-6th cervical vertebrae. Considering that you have only seven of them, it is no wonder that, even when healthy, the vertebrae of the cervical spine affect the quality of the voice. “If during a conversation you strain your neck or bend it unsuccessfully, your voice changes, and noticeably,” the expert assures. So relax your neck, keep it straight, put on your hat and take out the trash. 3. Find the key
█ “There are many ways to find exactly your voice, and all of them become very controversial when trying to self-diagnose. Here is one simple and common technique. Believe him or not - you decide. But it’s better to make an appointment with a specialist to find your own voice,” warns Natalya Olenchik. The native pitch of the voice is revealed, in particular, by such an exercise. Close your teeth and lips, fill your lungs with air and exhale evenly with the sound “mmmmmmmm”. Since [m] is a consonant sound, you will end up with something between “mmmmmmmm” and “muuuuuuuuu” - as it should be. While making this sound, clasp your throat with your palm, and as high as possible to the chin. Say a long "mmmmmmmm" up and down. Notice the moment when the larynx will vibrate the most (you will feel it with your palm). Most likely, this voice is your real one.
What will you fix:
hoarseness, trembling, hoarseness, tension, make the voice lower.
“The vocal folds are made up of special muscles,” says Natalia Olenchik. - These muscles, like all the others, we can train and pump up. The thicker the vocal muscles become, the lower the voice gets. Trained folds close more reliably, which will allow you not only to lower your sound, but also to get rid of the other shortcomings listed above. Faster to fitness for voice! Bonus: you can set up a vocal fold room without leaving your home, without a club card and a change of shoes! █ Talk as much as you can. When you run out of friends who are ready to endure so much chatter, get a deaf-mute cactus that will pretend to listen to you for days on end. █ Think and read, pronouncing each word to yourself and mentally straining your vocal folds (at first, for credibility, you can even move your tongue in your closed mouth). “Voice folds fluctuate constantly, even in sleep,” the expert explains. - They do not rest in a state of rest, but due to a change in the mode of operation. When we are silent, these vibrations practically do not help to pump up muscles. But this can be corrected by starting to pronounce thoughts and texts in the mind.
Breathing exercises
1 . Remember the army, even if you only saw it in nightmares. Hands at the seams! Bend over with your back bent and take a short but noisy breath. The neck should be relaxed. Gently straighten up (but not completely), allowing the air to slowly exit. Bend over again and inhale sharply again. Well, then you know. Repeat everything 8-10 times, take a five-minute break and repeat again (there should be 8 sets of 8-10 breaths in total). After a few days of training, the number of breaths in one approach can be doubled.
2. Stand up straight. And don't slouch! During a smooth inhalation, spread your arms to the sides and lift them up. Hold your hands and breath for a few seconds. Then sharply bend over and exhale with noise (hands down too). Repeat every day 2-3 times.
█ Shout and sing. “Better in the shower or toilet. There are good acoustics, and you will have the opportunity to hear yourself,” says Natalia Olenchik. Do not forget to sing long notes: the ability to hold them evenly will make your voice more confident. Put your breath
What will you fix:
nasality, trembling, hoarseness, shortness of breath, tension█ Breathe with diaphragmatic (lower) breathing. “Inhale deeply so that the belly comes forward with each breath. At the same time, the chest and shoulders should remain motionless (many lift them up), our consultant advises. “Speak on your breath.” █ Talk a lot. “Recommendations by some experts to set the breath while reading passages from books do not work well, because they are not related to real speech situations. The exception is people who, by virtue of their profession, have to read texts aloud (actors, presenters, etc.), ”explains Natalia Olenchik and encourages you to speak during classes the way you do it in real life. █ Begin to set your breath by speaking in English. This language treats the voice apparatus much more carefully than Russian, and therefore it will be easier to get used to following the rules. █ Do breathing exercises. “Which one is not so important. You can use the technique of A. N. Strelnikova, ”advises Natalia Olenchik. Here we give a couple of exercises as an example - from them and start.
Work on articulation
What will you fix:
tension
Articulation exercises
1 . Pull forward closed lips, and then spread into a wide smile.
2. Alternately raise and lower your upper and lower lips, showing everyone your teeth.
3. Move your lower jaw back and forth, and then open your mouth wide, as if you decided to measure the distance from the refrigerator to the gas stove.
4 . Stick out your tongue and make figure eights in the air. You can also draw other numbers with your tongue.
5 . Loudly and clearly pronounce the sounds [b], [m], [c] and [p] in turn.
For this, too, there is a special - articulatory - gymnastics. And do not rush to run to pay for the Internet to find a few exercises there. All of them are simpler than the Zhiguli and are aimed at developing the facial muscles, tongue and jaw. Rubbing the face in circular motions with the tips of the fingers, savory yawns with simultaneous attempts to say something intelligible, dangling the tongue and spanking the lips in different ways will be enough. For greater clarity, we give you a few exercises. Well, do you remember everything? No? Then it is better to re-read the article again and be careful. Of course, you can always relax and quickly solve the voice problem surgically. To do this, it is enough to apply with a corresponding request to the ENT department of any medical university. But since operations on the vocal folds are a wildly complicated thing, they can only help you with little things - the removal of singing nodules, fibroids and tumor-like formations. This will get rid of hoarseness in the voice, but, unfortunately, will not make it more courageous (that is, lower in sound). Oh yes, even with the help of the operation, you can make your voice much thinner and higher. But this, it seems to us, will hardly interest you.
What voices do men like?
Romantic ideas about the perfect couple draw us a tall man with a low, hoarse voice, and a fragile woman with a high, gentle voice. This picture has a real biological basis. According to statistics, men with deep voices have more children than "tenors": with an increase in testosterone levels in men, the tone of voice drops. In women, during ovulation (that is, at a time favorable for conception), the general tone of the voice rises (as a result of an increase in the level of estradiol, the female sex hormone). That is, by virtue of ancient natural laws, women subconsciously look for partners with a low voice, and men are “drawn” to the owners of high voices.
And (oh, how often I hear this!) men break their voices, trying to sound lower, “sexier”, and women, in the presence of a potential partner, unconsciously “raise” their voice. But the result, alas, most often does not meet expectations. A man who artificially lowers his natural tone of voice looks ridiculous: such attempts to give himself masculinity are like the desire of a frog to swell up to the size of an ox, and can only cause a smile in women.
And an artificially high female voice, as a rule, irritates men: instead of “cute chirping”, you get lisping, and hysteria is heard in rising intonations. How to bring your voice closer to the “ideal”, so that it attracts, rather than repels your partner?
First of all, allow yourself to speak naturally. What does your voice sound like when you sigh in relief, or moan, or yawn? This is your natural voice: get used to it! Perhaps you don’t like it, it seems “rude”, not “corresponding to standards”, but when you believe that this is your voice, it will already be possible to “agree” with it. Teach him to obey, to sound louder, quieter, higher, lower, louder, more transparent ... A natural voice will never cause irritation or ridicule in your interlocutor, because he, the voice, is a reflection of your soul, broadcasts your openness, sincerity, readiness for contact.
Can you change your voice? (voice exercises)
Change - no, adjust - yes.
How technically to achieve such a sound?
1. Hold your palms in front of your open mouth and, as in the cold, warm them with your breath: the hotter your breath, the more your larynx is open and, accordingly, the closer access to the lower resonators, which give depth and volume to your voice. Do not try to breathe loudly and strongly, let your breath be light and hot.
2. Then, keeping the same feeling, add some sound to the breath. Gradually turn up the volume as long as the warm breath persists.
4. When you master this exercise, add separate syllables to the voice stream, into the vowels O, A, then E, U, I. Do not forget about the “hot spring”!
5. And finally, move on to words and phrases. Your speech will be not only gentle, but deep and melodious.
Give your voice at least ten minutes a day, and the result will not be slow to affect. A voice filled with breath sounds penetrating, echoes in the depths of your interlocutor's consciousness, awakens feelings and desires, remains in memory for a long time, along with the words that he utters.
Of course, in addition to breathing, its timbre, intonation, and rhythm of speech are no less important for the sexual attractiveness of the voice. Having mastered the whole complex of voice skills, you will not only increase your “sexual rating”, but also acquire a powerful communication tool - for love, for business, for understanding yourself as a full-fledged person.
How to please the man of your dreams?
By ear. Develop your ear, and you will be able to hear his speech, like a song, "learn" it and sing it to him, but with your own voice!
Hear how he speaks: at what pace, how often he pauses, what intonations he uses, how smooth his speech is, how and where he puts accents ....
If you can hear this, adjust the natural sound of your voice to this tempo, rhythm, intonation ....
And a beautiful stranger will in some unknown way feel that he knows you, as if, a long time ago, almost like himself, he will feel affection and trust and will certainly want to continue communication!
