Do I Sound Gay?

Do I Sound Gay? (2015) is a U.S. documentary you can watch online on iFILM, directed by David Thorpe. After a painful breakup, journalist Thorpe turns the camera on himself — and on the question: why does his voice sound "gay," and does it even matter?

He consults speech coaches, sits down with David Sedaris, Dan Savage, Margaret Cho, Tim Gunn, and George Takei, and finds that the so-called "gay voice" is less biology than pop-culture osmosis. What starts as a personal quirk becomes a film about shame, identity, and what it means to own your own sound. Smarter than the title suggests. Stream Do I Sound Gay? online on iFILM.
