Brian Blessed what a booming voice too much for me , i used to have a friend ( sadly passed)with a booming voice like Brian and i used to say can't you speak quieter ? the whole bloody pub knows whats your saying but it was him and how he spoke,big and loud.

I relate to it a little as well (I can actually scream though). With the whole low voice thing I’ve had comments like “how is your voice so deep/low?” (I take the deepness as a compliment because it is) for a long time and I don’t mind that at all but when it comes to people who are a bit deaf/inattentive/anti-quiet the fact that I’m quite quiet vocally overshadows the actual deepness of my voice, to the extent where they think I’m losing my voice or something. I used to be extremely self-conscious about it but now I just laugh it off and keep it pushing. We can’t all be loud and annoying and if someone’s hard of crystal-clear hearing because they’re biased against people being a little quiet (it’s not even like you’re whispering) that’s their problem.
