  16. If I were to go along with society's stereotypes, I would say the character with the squeaky voice is gay. I would be judging a person strictly on his voice. Of course with so little information I could be wrong. You have to be careful when making assumptions especially when it comes to the character of a person. Looks and actions can sometimes be deceiving therefore, try to get as many facts as possible. In other words, we should not be so judgmental.

  38. This video suggests that you can't create conclusions based off how someone publicly presents themselves. One may have grown up in a specific environment that had shaped who they are or how they carry themselves. For example, in the video, Kris had said that the majority of his family were females. Growing up, he was surrounded by a large number of females and that has influenced his speech (more treble, less bass). Some people automatically assumed that because of how he spoke, that he was gay. Kris is straight, has a wife and kid. Matt's family was male dominant. He had grown up surrounded by mostly males. Growing up, he was involved with a lot of sports and masculine activities. His speech was greatly influenced...he sounds 'straight', however, he is gay.
