... My ex-GF used to watch a show "Will & Grace", and some winch on the show suffered that same affliction.
... I had to flee the room every time that show came on. |

Quoted: What's up with the full grown adult females with the voices of 5 year old girls. I seem to be running into them with frightening regularity lately and they are really starting to grind my last nerve. My wife and I had to sit through a Sea Lion show at our local aquarium MC'd by one of these chicks, and our ears hurt at the end of the show. I'm stunned a Sea Lion hasn't killed this chick yet. Do they fake this voice for attention? Psych issues? WTF?? That sounds like my fiance's mohter. I too wonder what the cause is. My theory is that it started out as a way to get attention and then grew into a full-fledged habbit. |

Quoted: ... flaming fags weren't ENOUGH to make you flee ... Hmmmm.... [:\] [:D] ... There were fags on that show? I dunno, my total experience was just the audio part with the squealing voice. ... Remember that Seinfeld episode where Kramer has violent, convulsive type reactions to Mary Hart's voice on TV? Well, insert a image of me when that bitch started talking.

Also, my wife's sister has a friend with the stupid kiddy voice thing. And I can barely look at her with a straight face when she talks. It seems so fake.

According to Dr. Drew Pinsky, this is often the result of sexual molestation at an early age.

Did some research....
[b]Puberphonia[/b] (mutational falsetto): "failure to change from the higher pitched voice of preadolescence to the lower pitched voice of adolescence and adulthood" (Aronson). The sound of the voice is usually high-pitched, "weak, thin, breathy, hoarse, and monopitched, giving the overall impression of immaturity, effeminacy and passiveness" (Aronson). Sometimes there has been resistance to 'growing up' for some reason; even when this is overcome, the person may not have learned to use the muscles differently with physical maturation, in which case this must be taught. Once arrest of physical growth has been ruled out, and the commitment of the person to make the transition to adult voice has been established, the change can be rapid. Emotional resistance to the change is rare, and the focus is usually on physical re-education. |

At least, she said [i]she[/i] never saw any evidence of that. 'Course, she talks normal, but her mom and sister talk like little kids. Her sister is a lot closer to her mom than my fiance is. That leads me to believe that she talks that way because she heard her mom talk that way. MAYBE, just maybe, I could see her mom being molested by a grandfather, then that daughter that she spends the most time around picking up the voice thing out of immitation. |

There's a few gals where I work that have this problem. I have a hard time containing the giggles listening to their MinnieMouse voices. Especially hard because one happens to be a 6'+ amazon so her voice is even more out of place (like Chyna the wrestler). When I was in highschool a friends gf had such a squeaky high voice that it would activate his keychain that had the "just whistle" locater (whistle & if the keychain was nearby but misplaced it would beep allowing you to find it). Used to piss her off to no end whenever his keychain started beeping while she was speaking. |

Quoted: [ Especially hard because one happens to be a 6'+ amazon so her voice is even more out of place (like Chyna the wrestler). When I did my stint as a 3rd shift gas station flunky there was a girl like that who would come in from time to time. She was probably 5'10" or so, with a large build, but she had the voice of a 4 year old. What was really funny about the situation was that the girl who worked 3rd shift with me was about 5'1", if that, and had a normal woman's voice. I wonder if the high pitched little girl voice women realise what they sound like to everyone else? |

According to Dr. Drew, the high-pitched voice is not necessarily related to molestation (although that is often the case). The little-girl voice can be caused by any childhood trauma; death of a loved one, divorce, molestation, etc.
Dr. Drew and his sidekick, Adam Corolla are both quite adept at reading voices. When they get someone on the show (Loveline) that has an unusual voice, they will place bets to see if they can correctly guess what happened in that persons past, and at what age. It's eerie how often they're right. The bottom line is this: If you're dating a girl with a sqeaky voice, it may be a sign of some heavy emotional baggage that could rear it's ugle head later on in the relationship (see some of the recent divorce threads). If you're attracted to girls with squeaky voices, that can also be a sign that you are co-dependant and prone to make poor relationship choices. |
