Voice discrimination is very common.
For example, high and nasal voices are looked down upon. Deeper voices are more respected.
There's this one girl a work with who sounds like she is 5, because of her tonality, even though she's around 19. Yeah, voice tonality especially can shape other people's perception of you.
