I thought at first it was standard here but I have come to realise it was affected, but from where? California. Baywatch watching maybe. Seems to me it is an era type of thing. I haven't heard many young men use it either but a few do, mainly effeminate guys.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-27140663785530400652013-12-10T13:33:44.612-08:002013-12-10T13:33:44.612-08:00Can't imagine Gregory Peck, John Wayne, Jimmy ...Can't imagine Gregory Peck, John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, or even David Niven talking like that.

He said that something has happened to the American male voice. As evidence he points to the films of the 50's and 60's with people like Greg Peck and William Holden.Roynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-51527616378821497582013-12-09T15:25:04.021-08:002013-12-09T15:25:04.021-08:00Great Funk & Wagnall's.
