I'm just wondering if people pay attention to sims' voices when they create them. I am also wondering if there are certain voices you avoid when creating sims.
What's prompted me to ask is in watching various videos, I'm super surprised at how many people use the "Melodic" voice on their female sims. To me personally that voice grates on my nerves so severely - it just sounds SO harsh and annoys me so badly, I have a hard time thinking it could sound good to anyone (especially when they do this "woobee woobee" joke thing). To me there is nothing remotely "melodic" about it, it is in fact the opposite.
So I'm wondering if it is just that sometimes people overlook the voice when they create their sims? Or do different voices just affect different people in different ways?
I have a YouTube Channel dedicated to Sims 4! You can find it here if you are so inclined!

Ha! his is so true, I dislike this particular joke thing for one of the female voices, it gotta be the melodic, although I don't remember how they are titled.
I do pay attention to voices, mainly because I want variety. Even so, most sims in my game are born in-game, and I never adjust their voices. For my machinima making I might create a few specific sims, then the voice is normally very important. But I have to admit that sometimes I forget it.

Normally I go for a middle clear voice, and then edit it according to their style and upbringing.
ETA:
I've likely used every voice setting, some of my cutie pie sweet sims have higher voices.
Saying "not to be rude", then blatently being rude does not excuse rude behavior.
It's already in the game, Teen start with slightly higher pitch which deepen when they grow into YA, and even more deepen in Elder.
