I mean, I get that and don’t condone it.

But what happens when someone says that all women who talk like that have the same intentions as Britt?

A key point is that she changes her natural way of speaking, and it's not just a higher pitch, but 'breathy' and softer. If someone is always talking like that naturally you wouldn't assume they were being manipulative.

Yes, true. I think that’s the important part. I just don’t want regular women to be a victim of “oh I heard her real voice don’t ya know!”. That’s unfortunately how society works, people use any dimension against a perceived enemy for any reason, including petty social or sexual jealousy.

I think part of feminist ideals is mitigating all attack vectors related to physical attributes of women, and that includes their voices (and yes, I know! These conservative fakers are putting on a front for duplicitous reason).

Yeah that is a good point, women are scrutinized enough as it is, the idea of this voice being a thing would make me anxious if I sounded like that naturally hah.
