  • Research reveals what your voice says about you.  Here's what we know:
  • According to decades of research, sound aspects of your voice give people major insights into your personality
  • Results:
  1. Low pitched voice - sign of extroversion
  2. High volume - reflects power
  3. Mumbling - macho & clever
  4. Deep - sexy
  5. High - inferiority
  6. Articulate - feminine
  7. Quiet voice - introverted
  8. Low & rich - attracts women
  • Recent study done by Penn State University
  • So next time you're at a social gathering and want to impress, you might want to break out in a bass-baritone version of a Wagner aria... or not.
