The Voice - Your Input Needed

For a male, transitioning to female after male puberty, finding that feminine voice is, arguably, one of the most important components of a successful transition and one of the most difficult to achieve.

Stefanie is a graduate student in the speech pathology program at Louisiana State University.  She's doing a research project about attitudes and perceptions about voice among people who identify as trans. In her words, "The speech/voice field has done some previous research about trans voice, but hasn’t traditionally had a lot of input from the trans community itself. I’m hoping to start addressing that problem through a research project, using an online survey. This survey was designed to collect information about personal satisfaction with voice, how voice impacts the participant’s life, what (if anything) the participant has done to change their presentation of gender vocally, and overall satisfaction with those procedures or behaviors. The results will be published in my master’s thesis."

Please go to the link, below, if you are interested in completing the survey.
