As I was watching the Tyler Oakley youtube video, I noticed that him and Mamrie Hart had e what Julie Beck calls “youtube voice”. Both Tyler and Mamrie seem to be bouncy, which is shown through long vowels. Not to be offensive, but Tyler is more bouncy because of the fact that he’s gay. Gay men on youtube, and in general, have the type of bouncy voice that makes you interested in what they’re talking about and have you enticed the entire time. The bounce to his voice, along with his constant laugh and smile make you not want to change the video. Mamrie showed signs of “sneaky extra words between vowels”, whenever she would mention a word that ended in the suffix “-tion”. This made it a lot more of a youtube voice, as Beck would say, due to the extra syllable.
