Voice Choice: Woo Men, Strike a Deep Chord
A woman’s imagination , fertile as ever, finds herself extremely attracted to Men with deep tones, pronounced during her fertile phase, according to research at St. Andrews University.

The reason for this is best explained by a recent study conducted by Dr Coren Apicella, an anthropologist of Harvard University, and Dr David Feinberg, a psychologist of McMaster University, Ontario.

Their study suggested that men with deep voices conveyed vitality, good health and better genes to women, which perhaps enhanced male attractiveness. It also implied a sense of power, which women found extremely alluring.

Women also attributed deep voices to strength, which gave them a sense of protection. This preference by women was more pronounced during their fertile phase, a time when deep voiced men certainly have an edge over their ‘squeaky’ counterparts.
