I suspect that the frequency of sound has some relation to the depth of one’s unconscious. As frequency is stepped up, so the notes rise. At infinite frequency there would be an infinitely high note. Low notes are progressively more conscious. The lowest note of them all is the single grunt of the bull-ape. In life, the high-pitched voice seems hateful to us, the low-pitched voice draws us forward. Women who are drawn to men with low-pitched voices like [[w:Gary Cooper|Gary Cooper]] sense a deep tenderness in such a man as well as outer male strength—they are drawn to the combination of inner vulnerability and outer force. Women who are drawn to men like [[w:Truman Capote|Truman Capote]] with his high-pitched shrill are drawn by the outer vulnerability and the inner steel, hatred, etc. Bi-sexuals with their inner and outer vulnerability and strength invariably have voices which are alternately high and low pitched.
