Well here I am goofing off at work and not working. But i digress, ever since puberty hit me, I've noticed the voice I hear in my head when I think, read, etc wasn't the same as my actual voice. It was feminine, and well it was me! So ya, do you guys have inner monologues and do they sound at all like your actual voice?
Never in my life have I actually thought about the gender of the voice in my head. I just kind of think the voice has no gender. You kind of just blew my mind by making me think about it though.
Sometimes my inner voice is male, or at least becoming more masculine, but most of the time it's still female, I guess because I just recently figured out that I'm not exactly female. Maybe it's weird that I still have a female inner voice, though. It doesn't really sound like my real voice, though.
I do, actually, and the voice seems to have no gender. Sometimes, when people are talking, I imagine their dialogue scrawling across a black screen. If anyone has seen the command prompt on Windows, it's similar to that, but in my mind, and it's constantly narrating everything around me. Once, I was writhing in pain from a stomach flu, and my inner voice literally narrated, "He keels over, his face contorted in pain." I wanted to punch it in its face. My conscious is so damn apathetic.
Interesting... I never thought of that either. After some internal conversation with myself I would also have to say that I could not assign a gender to my voice, and I most certainly identify as male.
I... Don't hear a voice. I mean, it's not like a song in my head where I can 'hear' it. I just think of the words.
The inner voice in my head is male, although sometimes when I'm not paying attention it becomes genderless I guess.
I've never really thought about it, but my inner voice is not at all like my outer voice. It is way more feminine than my outer voice. Although, it doesn't seem to belong to a gender. I don't know, I've never really thought of it. Quite puzzling actually. I like puzzles though, so this should be fun.
Mine changes between sounding male, female, and neutral depending on my mood, which is confusing to me because I don't see myself as gender fluid.
i have a few of them in my head. i guess that's where my weird train of thoughts come from. although, i do trust em sometimes. they're sometimes dead on about certain things.
I don't think my inner voice has a gender, but it isn't my voice. I have no accent or lisp. Does anyone have a thing where there are two of you, your inner voice and you? I do this so often and end up debating with myself and treating my mind and "me" as two differnt people.
My inner voice has no gender. Most of the time, it doesn't really have 'sound'. Of course, no one's inner voice is actually out loud. But I don't imagine it having a sound. It's hard to explain. It's a little more like words on a screen/page. But not exactly. That was a silly example. Perhaps it shouldn't be called a voice.
When I hum songs in my inner voice, it makes me feel I can sing. Then I try to actually sing. Mirrors breaks.
^ true facts haha Yeah I have the same thing, I think that's pretty common? I have a fairly feminine voice in real life but my mind-voice is more neutral, almost masculine. That could be cause I'm trans though I don't know
Exactly this. I don't really feel like it sounds a certain way either. It's like, completely neutral I guess?
Mine depends on what I'm reading And when I'm writing the voice becomes that of the character I'm putting on the page
Haven't thought of that actually. I feel like it sounds more feminine and young than what i actually sound like. But on the other hand, a lot of the time it's not actually a voice, more like a thought of a certain word. I don't know about other people who speak different languages, but as I can speak 3 languages I sometimes (depending on the situation) catch myself talking in my mind (to myself) in a different language even if the setting I'm in required me to speak another language. Not sure if I explained that properly :icon_bigg
