I suppose I'm asking if my voice passes, but since I'm rather under the impression that it does, I am also looking for some feedback.
Background: This morning I was feeling insecure. I felt like I sounded and looked like a guy, and while I realize those unhappy thoughts about myself are usually inaccurate, I had to record myself anyway to see for sure. The recording was done in such a way that no effort was put in - if anything, I was almost trying to sound like a guy. My pitch was low, and no special attention was put toward vocal mannerisms. The result? Well, that's up to you to judge.

My conclusion was that I always sound the same. I can certainly remove a lot of the "body" from the voice featured in the above link, as I added resonance on purpose to give my voice a more masculine sound, in theory, but even then I didn't sound all that different. In fact, if anything, the added resonance only improved the general sound of the voice - at least, over the microphone. I can only hope to assume that the recorded sound is similar or, at best, equivalent to my voice heard live.
I'm not sure where my pitch is at in the recording, because I haven't checked where I stand on the Hz scale in months. I don't really keep track of my voice, and its progression; perhaps that is a mistake on my part, however, I shall see if I have actually suffered for it.
Your thoughts?
