Also, isn't it sexist to lump a bunch of men in as "all deep voiced men" as a complaint?
I mean if I said "all shrill voiced women" it would certainly be sexist
No its not sexist, because not all men are deep voiced. All the winners were though. And 'shrill' is not even a common voice type in women. High, maybe...shrill? No.

Not picking on you but that what a voice actor does, they change their voice for the role, yes women have pretty and soft voices but there are plenty of ways for a woman to portray her voice in different ways.

What does that have to do with anything? Are you saying that as a high-voiced female, I could have convincingly come across as a deep-voiced male? lol. I said I have a high female voice, not the inability to put on a serious tone.

I hate to say this and I know it most likely wasn't done purposely but that seems a bit sexist.
its not SEs fault men are superior!!!!

No it means you could have used a voice for the trailer that would fit.
