I think part of the reason why a deeper voice is heard more might be because it sounds more sincere. The high pitched voice can sound a little patronizing and unnatural. It's the voice moms use on their kids when they want them to do something (like chores) but don't wanna yell at them. It's difficult to work with someone who you think is using a "nice" voice on you to try to manipulate you into agreeing and doing what they want, with the implication that you're angry and will be punished for not being obedient. That's what that tone sounds like to me.

I mean, that's the problem in a nutshell.

My feminine voice only carries weight as maternal/bossy/bitchy authority, and that fucks me over constantly. Just like this.
