Musical Dimorphism

Men and women are an octave apart. So too are boys and men.








Using the falsetto, or head voice, any man can sing like a woman, or more accurately, sing like a little boy.

Try out your falsetto at home now. Sing like the boy who dreamed he was a man. Use your mind to change the shape of your vocal chords. Let your head do the vibrating. Contrary to popular belief, women can do it too!

Ain't nothin' false about falsetto.
That shit is real. They should call it realsetto.

Musical dimorphism is found in many species. Check out the calls of the Canada Goose. The male sings "a-honk" and the female sings "a-hink".









The male goose honks an F, while the female hinks a G. The interval between them is called a whole tone, the 2nd smallest next to the semitone.








The hoots of the male and female owls are a major third apart, meaning they are 4 steps away. When their calls overlap, it makes for some sweet harmony.
