The study was published in the Journal of Sex Research. The authors said the findings suggested that while the voices of bisexual men in the sample were perceived as more masculine and attracted to females, listeners did not associate this impression with bisexuality.Īs a result, while bisexual men may appear to be at lower risk of facing voice-based identification and discrimination than gay men, they may often be mistaken as being straight. “These findings may also shine light on whether bisexual male voices, like gay male voices, differ from straight voices in terms of their gender non-conformity – a question that to date has not been examined.”īut academics noted the research was limited on the grounds all men who participated in the study are Australian, which may not be reflected among wider cultures.Īnd the authors conceded the study did not control for the recording environment or microphone-to-mouth distance, which could have affected the quality of the voice samples. “If this is the case, voice may be an important target of discrimination on the one hand but may also counter the invisibility many bisexuals feel (if their bisexual identities can be apprehended by their voice alone, without explicit disclosure required).

‘Voice may counter invisibility many bisexuals feel’Īn abstract of the study, titled Can listeners detect if a man is bisexual from his voice alone, reads: “The present study examined whether bisexual men can be identified from their voices akin to how gay men can be identified on their voice alone. Researchers claimed the ability to identify a man’s bisexual identity from his voice alone could have critical social implications such as helping to reduce feelings of alienation. The authors said their research showed bisexual men’s voices were perceived as being more exclusively attracted to women compared with both gay and straight men’s voices.īisexual men’s voices were rated as more masculine than both gay and straight men’s voices. However, the study participants could not determine any differences between bisexual and straight men’s voices with any degree of accuracy. Results from the study showed listeners could distinguish between gay and straight men’s voices with an accuracy of 62 per cent, apparently consistent with previous research. Voice samples were then modified to remove any background noise while volume levels were made the same to ensure consistency.

The men involved in the study were asked to record themselves on a smartphone reciting the first two lines of the Australian national anthem. Listeners were also asked to rate each man’s perceived level of femininity or masculinity in the voices on a similar scale. They were then asked to rate the men on their sexual orientation using a scale from zero (exclusively heterosexual) to 10 (exclusively homosexual). In the research led by clinical psychologist James Morandini, people were recruited to analyse the voices of 60 men, 20 of whom were gay, 20 straight and 20 bisexual.

Here is another shot of Wagner’s perfect size six. “So if you start in the middle, my size, it means the jeans will fit almost anyone in that range,” she said. Likewise, if you start out with a large size, a size 32, it will have too much curve for smaller, less shapely customers. 0:00 / 13:08 10 MIN BUBBLE BUTT - Glute Bridge Burnout / no squats, no jumps, knee-friendly I with Equipment Pamela Reif 9.62M subscribers Subscribe 95K 8.7M views 2 years ago lay down on the. “If you fit jeans on a very small size, a size 24, the model is going to be very thin and not have a lot of butt and not give the pattern any shape, which would then flatten the bottom of a size 32 customer,” Wagner explains. The model, who has helped brands such as Levi’s, 7 For All Mankind, Paige Denim, and Citizens of Humanity create the perfect fit, tells Vogue:

Standing at 5-foot-8, Wagner is a “perfect size six” with a 28-inch waist, which sits right in the middle of the fashion industry’s standard size range, typically running from a 24 to a 32.Īlthough she’s tall and relatively thin, Wagner has just the right amount of curve to her figure to supposedly make her the ultimate average representation of all women’s butts. Natasha Wagner is a 34-year-old model from Los Angeles, who for the past 12 years, has been helping denim companies craft the ideal fit for their jeans.
