There is no existing recording, to my knowledge, of my voice pre-T except for home movies of me as a toddler. This is a major regret of mine. If you're Trans and/or planning on taking testosterone, be SURE you record yourself before you begin. You'll kick yourself down the line if you don't, believe me.

12 March 2002 again - but this is my voice as testosterone has truly altered it. I should have done this all along, but anyway, I've long since trained my voice to sound higher because I like it that way. This clip is if I let my voice settle into its new "natural" range.
