According to this painfully obvious, ridiculously short article on msn, men with deeper voices have more kids.
The reason is that deep voices are more attractive to women, and thus...they hook up more, which results in more offspring. The article doesn't mention whether or not any of these were unplanned pregnancies.
The article also notes that the researchers attempted to make a correlation between voice pitch and offspring survival. What year is this? 1950? Of course they failed to make that connection.
Of course, my natural tendency is to question why the hell anyone would fund such useless, pointless research for a subject that most people have already known about for, well, years. It's called natural selection.

Haha, why would anyone fund something as ridiculous as this? Because you can get the government to fund anything if you present it correctly.
Just check out the magazine "Annals of Improbably Research"
Or visit the website
Because deep-voiced male reproduction is a very socially and politically important topic that affects us all in many, many significant ways. Right?
Exactly. I find it irritating that anyone spends money on this kind of BS.
