It's not just a higher pitch of voice (though there are studies on women being discriminated against in the workplace due to higher pitches by MEN more-so than other women).

If you read the article, it's the fact that this combination of pitch, enunciation, and docility in their speech OVERWHELMINGLY shows up in right wing women in public spaces than anywhere else. If you google "fundie baby voice" + "reddit", you'll get a lot of anecdotal evidence that the women in these circles do not speak like this in private (for example when they're disciplining their children).

You should be more mad at the right wing co-opting the natural cadence of these hypothetical women you are defending as a symbol of subservience than the "discrimination" against it in the workplace by other imaginary women.

Yes, and the women listed in the article are not those women, and we have video proof. I posted this in the thread already but here's a video of Katie Britt's normal voice compared to her current media voice.

Sorry for the YT Shorts link, but here's a video of comparing Katie Britt's previous speaking voice and whatever the hell was going on during the SotU response. It's so bizarre.

Edit: I listened to Jess Piper in detail, her voice doesn’t sound any different to me than the voices of women she’s criticizing. What a weird dimension for women to attack other women on, and tbh that’s just a wrong approach to take!

This is something she addresses herself and says she learned as a trait growing up in the same environment as the women she's criticizing. She's still trying to unlearn it. You should listen to what she's saying instead of just the cadence of her voice.

Why are there so many comments in the thread going "Omg great ad/marketing idea!!", that's so weird...

The "Halo Effect" has been a known psychological phenomenon since 1907 researched by uh...Wells and someone else who I can't remember.

I don't want to rain on your cranky old man parade, but unless you're 100+ years old I don't think it was ever just "being a gullible dumbass", it's very much a known societal bias that has been leveraged by the advertising industry. Don't think you're immune to it just because you think you're "above it".

Everyone knows the best games ever made belong to the King's Quest series by Sierra.

Yeah, because I spent all of my gaming budget by March.

Why the fuck did Japanese devs decide to release Tekken 8, Final Fantasy Rebirth, Yakuza Infinite Wealth, and Persona 3 Remake within like a month of each other? Add in Helldivers 2 as well, and my wallet is basically dust.
