Um, yeah, on tv. I'd say only like 5% of women in NYC actually say that. Guys say that. Why would the women of NY sound butch? We all don't naturally have a low sounding voice

Calm down Rachael, you said all southern people sound slow and it wasn't true so why you get upset? Do you sound like a man?

Lol, one thing I never heard anywhere else is that a lot of females in NY call each other the "N Word", its usually just used with guys everywhere else but in NY its both males & females.
When they "talk like men" it doesn't bother me (its actually normal), maybe its because I'm used to it?

I prefer the northern accent. Some southerners cut their words in half like colle instead of college, ma instead of mall, etc. I am not making this up, it's fact for some but not all.
The Northern accent is my favorite especially the accent from New Jersey, Philadelphia, and New York City.
