A deep voice may not be the advantage many men think: In a Durham University study, women did not find deeper-than-average voices more attractive once they could see him

• A deep, Darth Vader-style voice may make a man sound more commanding, formidable and difficult to challenge, but it may not give him the romantic advantage popular culture has long suggested.
• A new study by researchers at Durham University has found that women did not rate men with deeper-than-average voices as more attractive when they could also see the men’s bodies.
• The lower voices did, however, make the men appear stronger, better at fighting and more socially dominant.
