[quote=Anonymous]I think you need to try to tease out whether it’s misogyny or truly an issue with your tone. Full disclosure, I find people in and around DC to be extremely harsh sounding. People in this area and north sound really loud. They speak very quickly. They interrupt often. And their tone sometimes feels dismissive. BUT - and this is important - I’m from the Deep South. I’m used to softer, slower speech patterns from both men and women. No one in my family has that really redneck sounding drawl. But we do speak much more gently. I’m not saying my accent is better. Just that I have to remind myself that I am sometimes over sensitive to harsher sounding speech. [/quote]
