    I read an interesting article the other day that women's voices have trended significantly lower in the last decades because people perceive a deeper voice to be more authoritative.

      In the workplace, yes. Outside of work it's often considered "old sounding and unattractive"

      I have literally been told by a dude that only old women don't have high voices
