Yeah sorry I know this was a posting fail- I like the video but totally disagree with the article. In all parts of life it is not what people say but how they say it. If you uptalk, can't speak with conviction, fry your words, etc I can't take you seriously.

OMG, I TOTally AGree with you, like... TOTally.

Seriously though, I do agree. Vocal fry is one of the worst things to listen to. Do these girls/women not realize how ignorant it's making them sound?

*sorry I should say speech "affectation". I should hardly judge how others speak if I can't use the correct vocabulary.
