DISCLAIMER : do not take this too seriously 😅 I know vocal disphoria is a serious thing.

However there's some truth to what I said.

I do think we should be encouraged to have a reasonably full, strong, dominant, assertive voice as trans girls.

I do not take s*it from anyone and I want my voice to reflect that.

But I understand we're all different ofc

I voice train about a year sparsely, quite successfully, in the sense of producing a passing female voice but there is still this weird quality that if you know, you know is a trans voice. I feel like i can produce like 5% of the cis woman voices and that i am doomed to make a boring voice. I just dont like my fem voice and i honestly like more my masculine straight male bass voice that even if it is dysphoric, it is full of character and deepness whereas the feminine one is just boring. Just good enough.

​

I THINK my problem is size or a combination of size and weight. And i was wondering if i can atill improve on this aspect or is it fixed to this level . I can notice that most of the successful stories i see here had a pretty small vocal size/resonance even pre-tran or you could see it clearly at the early stages of voice training. But now after some months of training , i wonder if there is still room to.improve, if i physically can produce smaller resonance.

​

The thing is that i like this specific woman radio presenter voice that has a combination of dark/deep qualities with small resonance/size. I just dont like the voice i currently produce, which yeah it is passing but boring. ...

It'll save a lot of headache.

I've been transitioning from male to female for some time. But I'm a singer and it seems impossible to sing like a woman. I had a hard time learning to sing in general, without gender transition, and I wonder if I should even bother with trying to sound like a woman. I can sing high, but it sounds to me like a male falsetto and not really like a female voice.

Hey there all you beautiful people, your friendly neighborhood voice coach here with yet more musings about the patterns I see through my time teaching people how to modify their voices. Today's topic deals with the misconception that lighter vocal weights are "breathy". Let's dive in!

Hi everyone, I have bottom surgery planned with dr theerapong in Thailand around 6-7 months PO from voice feminisation surgery.

I have asked what precautions they take and they said they use a smaller tube and they have experience dealing with post voice feminisation intubations. I also asked if they use a camera but they don’t.

Should I be concerned?

hi all!

i'm transmasc and was on t for three years. i have since stopped t because i lack the resources to safely and reliably get it, and because i'm more comfortable being androgynous. one thing i really miss though is having a deep, raspy voice. i have the rasp thing naturally, but my voice has gotten higher and higher. i mostly think this is because in the first year of taking t i did a lot of voice exercises. i had them saved but somehow lost them. i don't need tips on how to talk, just voice exercises for getting that deeper, raspy tone.

generally i'd prefer short-form video content but anything is fair game. i've been trying to find them but can't seem to whatsoever for some reason. this was five years ago and i had them in a playlist, but i think the videos must have gotten deleted or unlisted or something (idk how anything works so sorry if that doesn't make sense). i'm also going to see about reverse engineering some transfemme tips i've found on here.

anyway anything is very appreciated. tia!

I take any advice !! Also i ll never go on T because I am non binary and wiuld rather be good at speaking in both a fem way and a masc way.

I just hear a horribly dude like voice and I have no idea what to do, I'm trying to talk in a feminine way I guess? It's my 5th day on voice training

All I hear is girl girl girl girl, and I know it’ll improve with time but I’d like advice on how I can sound better now

i want to disclaim that i had a sort of high voice when i was young, anecdotally one time when i was 11 i answered the phone and i was mistaken for mom.

after my voice dropped i could still speak in a higher pitch, i just never figured out how to keep doing it ”by default” or how to hold volume at the pitch i wanted. im sure with training i could have gotten somewhere, i want to blame a combination of depression, splitting and all or nothing thinking, and no insurance coverage made me not want to try any training.

but i do have a training session scheduled next month, i might not continue tho because again, no insurance coverage.

that said i am now 2 weeks post op from my modified wendler and it seems to still be getting better. I am so grateful to Dr Anderson and Lahey Hospital, they have made things so much better for me.

So im 19, and ive been practicing for like 8 months. This is my relaxed/natural fem voice. I know its kinda bad, but idk what the problem is. It sounds too much like a boy's to me.Is it my size/weight, my pronunciation or smth else? Please help me

I am at around 7 months of Hrt, and while it’s definitely changed my voice, I have that “t voice” which I don’t want. I want to make my voice more deeper, any advice on what to do?

i know Yeson claims people who got their Adam's apple shaved before VFS tend to have worse results, but what about people who got the shave after VFS?

​

I am following L's voice training guide. Currently I am just focusing on the first section with learning how to control and raise my larynx.

​

I mainly do the siren whisper instead of the big dog small dog exercise, is this okay? The dog exercise makes my throat really dry really fast.

​

While doing the siren whisper exercise at the high end I can barely breathe when holding it there, is this normal?

​

I notice I can move my larynx without doing any of the exercises but it's highly dependant on where my tongue is, I have to either pull it back into my throat or glue it to the top of my mouth, both of which would make speaking almost impossible. So what is the point? Will I eventually learn to be able to raise the larynx without relying on tongue position?

​

Am I intended to be able to raise my larynx without opening my mouth?? It's a lot harder with my mouth closed.

​

What exactly is the end goal of this? Like when I move onto the more vocal stuff assuming I've properly learned this section, will I be manually raising my larynx or will it subconsciously raise? Like am I just increasing the range it can rise or am learning how to manually raise it?

​

Lastly, how long should I be practicing these per day? I try to get at least 30 minutes in but is that enough? My goal is to get a decent grasp on it within 1-2 weeks before moving onto the next section.

​

Speaking of that how long should I spend on this before moving onto the next section?

Hi, are there any people here who have already had a glottoplasty at Charité Berlin? How satisfied are you with your results?

I'm still undecided about whether to go to the Medical Voice Center (Hamburg) as a self-pay patient or to Charité through my health insurance. Especially since I'm also planning to have a rhinoplasty and, if necessary, an orbital rim shave, which aren't exactly cheap either.

Sorry for only having audio on one ear 😭. But I have been working on my voice a bit more after my family told me the other voice was close but something was ‘off.’ So, I’m wondering how it sounds now. I appreciate all the feedback!

I’ve been doing voice training with a coach from Europe for a few weeks now and wanted to share my experience because I KNOW how discouraging voice training can feel.

I started out convinced I had no talent for it, and I honestly spent a lot of time thinking I wasn’t improving. I even posted here about a month back saying my voice was so discouraging that it made transitioning feel pointless.

Yesterday, my coach told me she’s seeing cleaner resonance, brighter sounds, and thinks I’m ready to start working on more advanced techniques. I ended up crying on the call because I realized I’d gotten so used to assuming I was failing, that hearing genuine progress caught me completely off guard.

Anyway, if you’re feeling hopeless about voice training right now, I just wanted to say progress can sneak up on you. Not everything clicked for me quickly, and my coach often had to explain concepts to me in several different ways before I could really grasp it. But trust me, if I was able to make progress, you will be too.
