ashleyspencer, I think I figured out why it’s so hard for me to keep up with TikTok and YouTube.
When I was a kid I had a monotone voice and expressionless face. I trained myself to do vocal fluctuations that make me sound bubbly and friendly.
I also learned to smile a lot because it made me socially acceptable.
Covid masks allowed me to sound bubbly while straight faced.
When on video, I’m doing the bubbly voice I trained myself to do, and consciously making happy facial expressions. It’s very draining.
