I'm three decades away from my last class, but I thought that the ess sound than an s makes is called a sibilant, where the z sound it makes isn't.
Most people using the word "gays" will have it sound like gayz, or the word gaze. His is that sibilant s like in hissing
You make a good point about the voicing distinction that I was unsure of, so I looked it up. According to clearly the most authoritative source on the internet, [s] and [z] are both "hissing" sibilants.
See? That's what getting old does to you, you forget shit left and right, or remember it wrong. I always recommend not getting old, just stop at 40.
Seriously though, thanks for the correction.
