As I began taking testosterone, I felt a mix of excitement and trepidation regarding my speaking voice. While I dreamed of a low, smooth voice, my high singing voice felt sacred, evoking emotions tied deeply to my identity and artistic self. Voices carry immense emotional weight, reflecting who we are at our core, and I grappled with how this transition would redefine my identity.
The profound connection between voice and identity is undeniable; when I thought about how testosterone would change my speaking voice, I couldn't help but reflect on my personal journey. Voices evolve over time, influenced by various life stages, from puberty to menopause, and I wondered if a different voice would mean losing a part of who I’d always been.
