    The article claims there is a correlation between gender gap and high-pitched voices, but it does not imply causation.

    Also it’s simply not true. There’s lots of countries where gender inequality is significantly higher than in Japan (look at any african country basically, or Muslim countries), yet women there don’t speak with such a high-pitched voice, IMO.

    Apart from that, the article gives me serious “beauty is oppression, and flirting is rape” vibes. Like the kind of messaging that is typically provided by nowadays “feminist” outlets who do in fact not focus on the social and socio-economic goal of improving the position of women in society as we/they are (fair-ness or true equality), but instead tries to focus on same-ness and abandoning that women dress pretty because oh no, she does that because she’s pressured by men in a patriarchic society to do so.
