here is that voice training beginner’s guide, by the way:
Broadly the two main gendering qualities to a voice are weight and size. With voice training the general idea is to:
ear train: learn to recognize when you weight is heavy vs light, when size is large vs small
mimic and experiment: learn to produce voices that are different weights and sizes, and esp. how to balance those to produce a typical feminine voice (suitably light and small)
practice: just keep listening and recognizing when you’re slipping up and to adjust your voice back into the feminine range, over time and lots of persistent practice, this habituates and becomes your voice!
Note: as you experiment or do any voice training exercise, make sure to pay close attention to:
how it sounds to you as you do it,
how it sounds when you record it and play it back for yourself,
how others report they hear it, and also
how it feels (in your body) when you produce the different sounds, keeping mental note so you can reproduce the voice if you need.
Experiments to try:
using a pitch detector, sing a note and chant a word while maintain the same pitch, and change resonance/size from dark/large to bright/small while keeping pitch the same
using a pitch detector, keep pitch steady and practice going from a heavy to a light weight without changing pitch
mimic a large voice, like Patrick from Spongebob, or the Giant from Jack in the Beanstalk
mimic a small voice, like when you talk to a baby or a cute puppy or animal, or accessible overfull childish voices, like Ash Ketchum from Pokemon or Dexter from Dexter’s Lab
