If it was Alex (male voice):
Digital voice assistants such as Amazon's Alex are tools for patriarchy to keep the women down. Not adding a female voice is a form of opression.
[–]melk8 40 points41 points42 points 2 years ago* (10 children) | Copy Link
Can’t you change the voice settings anyway? I know you can change Siri to be male, and also change the accent.
[–]ineedabuttrub 22 points23 points24 points 2 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link
Apparently you can change accent and such, but not the gender. Google allows you to change gender.
[–]melk8 20 points21 points22 points 2 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
So what are they complaining about then? There’s your “equality”.
[–]LateralThinker13 26 points27 points28 points 2 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
They are complaining that water is wet and so are their diapers.
[–]CelticHound27 8 points9 points10 points 2 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Cause it’s what they do because feminism is their identity at this stage
[–]blikakisthepro 6 points7 points8 points 2 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Yea but the default is female and remember journalists can't use technology
[–]Suck-Less 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Maybe they should learn to code
[–]blikakisthepro 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
They dont know they need to plug their computer are you sure
[–]Suck-Less 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Plugging something in to turn it on? That’s misogyny!

I’ve changed my siri gender before
[–]MisterBowTies 8 points9 points10 points 2 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
They'd complain about a male voice mansplaning to them
[–]N0odLeLiNg 7 points8 points9 points 2 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Once Alexa adds both male and female, the libs are gonna get mad and say that they want a non-binary and genderfluid voice (whatever that's supposed to sound like) and that there isn't a black accent so it's racist
[–]DEVOmay97 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The idea that you should assign races to specific voice types is far more racist if you ask me.
[–]jedijeff7 61 points62 points63 points 2 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
There ya go, feminists, better stay off the internet or you'll hurt your cause !
Everything is a tool of oppression used by the patriarchy to keep women down.

Wouldn't it be empowering since these virtual assistants have all the answers and are the smartest in the room?

I haven't seen the "tools of oppression" bit before, but that's probably just because re-framing everything as oppression is still relatively new.
The general idea that female-voice AI assistants are sexist or reinforce gender stereotypes or such isn't so new and I've seen it pop up a number of times.
[–]RingosTurdFace 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
One that wasn’t spoof was when they got upset about the minions being male (assuming their gender - triggered! /s).
To defend this heinous crime (of not having considered offending the sensibilities of gender and identity politics obsessed academics just looking for the next opportunity to be offended), their creator claimed “they’re all make because they’re dumb and stupid”.

[–]illuminatilamp -1 points0 points1 point 2 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I don’t think any one irl who’s actually a feminist thinks Alexa is sexist and oppressive, this is something that like, 5 people on twitter would get mad about. Also, all of these “feminists” saying stupid shit are never taken seriously irl either so it’s a shame the loud minority has become the definition of feminism.

most people enjoy female voices on Alexa because they see men as not good this is sexism against men

Did that person just assume Alexa's gender?

Ik on Siri there’s a setting to make it a guy voice idk of that applies to Alexa
[–]Sid_Insidious 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Postmodern feminists think EVERYTHING is a tool of the patriarchy design to keep women down.
That's what they are taught in "feminist school" (regressive-left Marxist Liberal Arts programs).
Even in places where women are outdoing men hands down, there is "room for improvement".
[–]pottawacommie 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Just change the voice to something more masculine or androgynous-sounding, if you’re so pressed.
Or just type your query into a fucking search bar instead of the Always-Listening Bezostron 9000.

Don't let them know that the US Airforce and Navy use a female voice assistant for their pilots because a study was done and had strong evidence that men in a high stress situation responded better to a female voice yelling at them to pull up or any other maneuver than male voice doing the same

Numerous gender studies specialists have come to the worrying conclusion that if these hateful assistants remain unnoticed it could very well end up in the possible enslavement or even genocide of the entire population of women.
