Janet Reno….

It’s Reno Time!

CANINES (dogs) **ONLY** use deep, lowest-tonal barks when they really, really mean business. That means, when they’re revealing that they are sincerely about to apply violence or use force against another if the other doesn’t alter whatever they’re doing.

Otherwise, they “bark” in mid-range. High-pitched tones used by dogs are only done to COMMUNICATE PANIC OR GRIEF.

So I think that’s what’s heard oftentimes, even by us humans, when anyone uses a high-pitched tone: they’re panicked, they’re alerting something bad…

…and when you discover they are not doing that, as with many women who speak in high-pitched ranges, other people don’t take them seriously (or, “tune them out”) because they’re recognized the speaker with the high-pitch as insincere, or, making a false alarm.

Which is why females need to speak in lower tones and stop the screeching. And only use the screeching when they really, really need to alarm others.

Same with male voices that are ‘clamped’ or sound like they need to swallow whatever they ate earlier that’s still lodged in their esophagus.

McCain’s voice AND his method of speaking (he routinely sucks air in through his teeth with an open mouth during his speaking). John Kerry’s alto-tone really irritates me.

Laura Ingraham’s nasal, high-pitched monotone really, really irritates me. Palin’s high-pitched screech does, too. Hillary’s voice is horrible for those same reasons with many more added.

It’s just the case that high-pitched speaking voices are irritating and so I do whatever I can to avoid ‘hearing’ them and when I can’t, I don’t maintain attention to them because they’re irritating.

I THINK women’s tiny, high-pitched voices are a result of their child-bearing relationship: they’re (we’re) most significant with our voices when we speak lowly, slowly, kindly, immaturely…with affection, intimacy…and that’s because we communicate most effectively that way. WHICH DOESN’T translate to “public speaking” well, obviously, because women can’t speak like that publicly and be taken seriously as to mature issues, and, when they do speak publicly, then, they raise their voices into that high-pitched screeching and often, like Graham, into that awful nasal drone-tone that sounds like a buzzsaw in other people’s ears.

So many adults tune-out women when they speak in public for those reasons. Same goes for males when they speak weakly or gutterly or otherwise, with affectations that weaken their sincerity (like McCain with his air-sucking-through-his-teeth thing and males who are affected toward the feminine, it weakens their credibility).

Someone mentioned Big Sis’s voice…aargh. SHe ALSO has a horrible speaking voice and it’s not because she doesn’t have a high-pitched voice but because she grumbles, or, rather, is obviously using an “affectation” in her speech by an alterficial low-tone (she doesn’t natually have a low-pitched voice, so she alters her voice to ‘be low’ when it isn’t and her affectation is apparent — which weakens her credibility).

High-pitched voices and speech affectations, all, are irritating. But women with the high-pitched screech problem are just too much for me so I tune them out if I can’t mute them.

This proves my point that women are harder on other women in politics, in the court room, in business, etc.

If it was true that women prefer other women in public office we would have many more women in congress, but we don’t. This is one reason why I am not as worried about Hillary in 2016.

Are you serious? If not for racism (“black=good”), misplaced white guilt and outright stupidity on the part of the electorate, Hillary would’ve won the primaries and then beaten McCain in a landslide. Heck, *I* would have voted for her over McCain, as I’ll take an unrepentant lib over a squishy Republican any day of the week. (That doesn’t mean I’d vote for Obama; he’s not a lib, he’s an America-hating marxist.)

If Hillary doesn’t run in 2016, it won’t be because she thought she might lose.

If it was true that women prefer other women in public office we would have many more women in congress, but we don’t. This is one reason why I am not as worried about Hillary in 2016.

Then how the heck did Kirsten Gillibrand get elected? She sounds like an 11 year old girl.

she was initially appointed, not elected, to HRC’s old NY Senate seat.

So women are sexist.

Everyone is sexist. It’s cultural.
