An atricle in the journal Biology Letters* surveyed a group of hunter-gatherers in Tanzania (to control for items such as birth control). They found that voice pitch was a good determinant of number of offspring the individual would have - a higher reproductive success.
The reason for this is hypothesized that men with deeper voices are seen as more attractive and a marker for being more masculine and possibly having "good genes".
So, those of us who don't have a nice, deep voice may have another hurdle to jump in our quest for a mate. I guess I should only speak after I wake up in the morning then...
