ABC ^ | 4/23/14 | Paula Faris

A new study by Albright College finds women can more easily make their voices sound attractive.

According to a new study by Albright college, men are incapable of intentionally making their voices sound sexy. 20 women and 20 men tried to make their voices sound sexy.

Another 40 people judged whether they achieved that goal. And found that the women easily outperformed the men. Why is it so difficult for men?

I mean, even a cartoon, Jessica rabbit, can do it. Researchers know, that to men, an attractive voice is often linked to physical appeal. While men learn that what attracts women is confidence.

I always assumed women thought Rod Serling’s voice was sexy.

Serling created the “Twilight Zone” in the 1960’s, and he had extensive experience in radio before that.

Any ladies here at Free Republic remember Rod Serling and have an opinion on his amazingly distinctive voice?

So what if women can make their voices sound sexy. All men are born with the ability to imitate the sounds of internal combustion engines, machine guns, explosions and flatulence. No woman can do that.

Sure I remember Serling.

But I didn't consider his voice particutulary intriguing.

Now Sam Elliott...that is a different story. :)

I once saw on one of those old tabloid shows a segment about people who earn a living talking dirty to men over the phone. One was a male Marine. He affected a phony female voice and his male customers didnt know the difference. The Marine was straight, he did it just for the money.

But can you speak German softly? A man that can do that is pretty sexy.

One night in a seedy biker bar, I heard, clear as day, Patsy Cline singing “Crazy”.

I quickly made my way toward the sound, only to find a short, fat, bald, baby-faced man crooning into a karaoke microphone.

Talk about cognitive dissonance.

No argument.

Connery did a voice over in a movie about a dragon (can’t remember the name). He was great.
