I'd rather give her credit for paving the way and being incredibly brave than concentrate on her voice.

She also looks great.

That doesnt work in the real world though.  You can look like a super model but if yoiu talk like a man, you will be seen as a man.  It is as simple as that. & I have seen it too many times.

Ok. So what advice would you like to give?  Very negative tone you have there, not helpful.

Hi Valentina
Unfortunately believe you are correct. But there are different methods one can use to change their voice so that it is more feminine sounding. One is to train your voice by changing the pitch to be more feminine by exercising it to come from the throat and mouth and not from the chest.  Or the only other option that I am aware of is to get the voice box operated.   

I didn't have to much difficulties with this, I already had a voice the was higher up on the scale towards feminine pitch to start with. I guess it's an asset that came along with my being small to start with.

Changing the voice is just a question of practice, many TS don't even botther, ot think they're OK because people don't sir them day and night. I bet on the phone she doesn't do so well.
