American men have started to talk like WOMEN: Californian study finds that males are rising in pitch at the end of sentences


[quote][url="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2519363/Men-started-talk-like-WOMEN-Study-finds-males-rising-pitch-end-sentences.html"]First men became enamoured with grooming regimes, but now it seems the metrosexual man has started talking in a more feminine way too.
A new study has revealed that modern men are starting to ‘uptalk’ by rising in pitch at the ends of sentences.

Also more woman want masculine roles/jobs.

Women never use to talk like that either, it bothers me. When men do it its even worse.

The Daily Fail tabloid? Really?

They also claimed that Facebook and Twitter cause cancer, and scientists are evil because they base their decisions of facts.

Especially in California. What a good place for a study like this.

Well, SOME American men.

Must be those log cabin Republicans. Sen Teddy Cruz sure has a whiny, high-pitched voice. And he talks about being a "squish" way too often.

Actually, this is not really anything new. Sociolinguists have long noted that language shifts--including shifts in vocabulary, pitch and pronunciation--are often initiated by women, with men following afterwards. It has going on a long, long time and has nothing to do with being a "metrosexual."

You mean like EVERYONE -- manly men most definitely included -- has been doing in Australia for decades?

His whiny voice is like nails on a chalkboard.

So in other words, X claims 1+1=2. That's false. Why? Because he claimed 3x4=3.6345 this other time. Not to mention I don't think they did the actual study. Someone else did; they just reported it. The s@#$ that passes for reasoning these days, I swear....

I'm so sick of uptalking.
