I am really picky when it comes to someone's actual voice (which for me is kinda weird, because there are things I am not particularly choosy about). I wouldn't ever dump someone because they had what I considered a non-sexy voice if I just loved many other things about them , but - I will say: A sexy, deep, smooth, calming tone of voice just sends me right over the edge. It's not like I even really care what they are saying to me, if they have a sexy voice. They could probably recite the dictionary and I would be in heaven. When I was in junior high school, I had a huge crush on the movie actor Vincent Price (of horror movie fame). And to be honest, although the persona he portrayed on screen was part of the draw for me, it was mostly due to his incredibly sexy voice and tone. That kind of voice just makes me almost insane, it's so compelling, I think (although if his would have been even deeper, it would have been even better, I think). I've been told I have a sexy voice, too. I sing, and used to be a Contralto, but thanks to years of smoking (I've since quit), my voice is apparently deeper than some women's voice (I now sing mostly Alto parts). A man's voice just "does things" to me (or not). Guess I am a "voice person"... As far as "style" for commands, etc. - I like a calming, yet pretty insistent tone. I abhor yelling, or hard-nosed, abusive kinds of tones. It just doesn't do anything for me at all. If someone really is upset, of course, that's another thing. - Susan
