Every-time I'm on the phone they call ma'am or madam. Either it is a conspiracy or I really do sound like a woman on the phone. The worst was when I answered my friends phone. I was called Ms. Alexander. My voice is not that light? I mean I recite poetry, listen to classical opera, and watch romance flicks. How manly can I get? My voice needs to deepen! How can I deepen my voice?

By not wearing underwear,your testicles will eventually pull your vocal cords down somewhat,thereby naturally deepening your voice,good luck.

I don't care who you are, that there's funny.

@FeraVerto - I certainly hope you're kidding here. If you've really taken all those steps and are still not seeing any improvements to your voice, I recommend listening to more Lady Gaga. If that still doesn't work, you can always consider a belly ring, they're supposed to stimulate testosterone production.

Yes,let it all hang low.You will find your voice will deepen and your whole persona of being a man will take on a whole new meaning.This will also build your confidence up with women,who will sense your manlihood and cling to you like suds on a pint of guinness.

No, I'm serious. Do many other men have light voices? I'm not gay or anything of that nature. I just love certain things other men do not find interesting. Heck I would love to see ballet in person then go see car races. I would like to deepen my voice to make me sound like a real man inside.

That is the most insane thing I've ever heard. Where did you learn that testicles are ATTACHED to your vocal chords? (actually vocal folds). Hopefully you were joking.

To the OP, there are exercises you can do to help you lower your speaking voice. A quick internet search should provide you with some options.

Thanks I will have to check out Google. Soon I will be called sir; not ma'ma on the phone anymore. Trust me it is terrible being called a ma'am over the phone.

Sorry, I do not like alcoholically drinks and smoking causing many illnesses. I would like to keep my body in shape for anything. I have smoked before and I always got flu like systems. Waste of money and weed.

Hmmm. Sorry, in that case. It sounded satirical.

If you're serious, E-how has an article here with some ideas to work on.

I can imagine it's pretty terrible for people to call you the wrong sex - I know I've felt like an utter arse when I've done it to people (but I still have to laugh at "I'm not a ma'am, I'm a thir, tho rethpect me!" - not offering any judgement on that one, but I had to put myself on hold and LOL).

And I can appreciate being interested in non-man's man kind of things. Most men won't branch out into the like for fear of ridicule, but is always good to get some culture and expand horizons.

Chesed v'shalom.

that's nothing. when I was in grade school, i had boy-tits, earrings (yes, in 5th grade!) long hair and big rosy, puffy cheeks. Little kids in the grocery store would ask their mothers if I was a boy or a girl!

as a younger guy, it was a little traumatic, but now I just look back and laugh. I am who I am and if society has a hard time labeling me, then that's their problem! Embrace your voice, man! next time somebody on the phone thinks you're a chick, indulge them! Drag it out, play with it, if it's a guy, flirt with him until he starts giggling and them tell him you're a dude! Make a joke out of it, otherwise you'll drive yourself nuts!

It feels like I'm not manly enough. But it is pretty funning. I can prank call people and act like I'm their secret girlfriend and your boyfriend is cheating on you. I need to see what I can do to deepen my voice.
