    someone else can probably explain this better but, a lisp is a speech impediment wherein the "S" & "Z" sounds are exagerated and somewhat "wet" sounding more like a "TH" sound. Sometimes little kids have lisp which they out grow. For some reason gay people are stereotyped as lisping in their speech. I don't know if this will make sense to someone whose first language is not English. My youngest son's first language is Spanish, for a while, as he was learning English, he had a lisp.

    I recently got the opportunity to listen to my voice recorded. I'm currently borrowing this audio recorder. I find that I sound different from how I thought I sounded, and not in a good way. :/

    I wish I had a lisp. This one guy in one of my classes has a perfect one. But he's also a conservative Christian, so I think that's the source of his closetedness. He's kind of cute, too.

    And yes, I'm stereotyping. But this "stereotype" has grounds in reality. Though it's a generality (so some gay guys don't do it; some genuinely straight guys do), feminine speech characteristics in males is often indicative of homosexuality. Not only is sexual orientation in your voice, but in your mannerisms, gait, emotional sensitivity, approach to conflict resolution, etc. That this is true is actually almost evident a priori, as if you believe that homosexuality comes from the structure and function of the brain, then it's unreasonable to believe that the only thing affected is sexual preference.
