Yes, Humanity Will Survive

The BBC has reported the results of a preliminary study conducted among a remote tribe in Tanzania which observed that males with low voices tend to produce more children. The researchers have yet to figure out why, speculating that females may find husky male voices more attractive than falsettos, or perhaps baritones begin their reproductive years earlier than higher-voiced males.

I think there's some truth here, having fathered 5 children and possessing vocal chords which have been described as just a tad to the north of Barry White's.

I would like to point out that Freddie Mercury had no offspring, so the study must be true. But the important part of this research is that it gives us some degree of security in the knowledge that the world will not be infected by successive generations of James Blunts, Damien Rices and their testosterone-challenged ilk.
