What is the difference between male and female voices?
Males generally have low pitched voices (A2 to C3) while females have high pitched voices (A3 to C4). Rougher articulation is often associated with male voices while the female voice is associated with a gentler articulation. Males tend to use full pitch range during speech while females vary pitch range during speech.

The Frequency Distinctions
Female voice fundamentals may range from around 350 Hz to 3,000 Hz. Their harmonics go from 3,000 Hz to 17,000 Hz. Male vocal fundamentals start at 100 Hz and top out at about 900 Hz.
How do you know if a voice is masculine or feminine?
Generally, masculine voices will feel resonance in the chest while speaking, while feminine voices most often feel resonance in the face. A more ambiguous voice resonance is felt in the mouth and lip area. This is sitting in the middle of the two extremes.
Is female voice high frequency?
Answer: In general, women speak at a higher pitch – about an octave higher than the man's voice. The average range for an adult woman is 165 – 255 Hz, and a man's voice range is usually 85-155 Hz. A man's voice is generally deeper because the vocal cords have elongated and thickened with testosterone.
