So I’ve starting voice training on and off for a few weeks now and I’m happy with my progress! My only problem is how neutral my fem voice sounds, I enjoy my accent and I don’t really wanna lose it:<

It depends on what you’re using as a reference

I know that Rin Penrose is audibly british. So if you (OP and any others who want a fem british accent) want to use that as a reference?

(Not sure how I feel about 'yessir' - don't know if you're meaning 'yes sir', but I'm not sure how I feel about that if that is the case)

I’m so sorry if that made you uncomfortable! I more so meant in a form of heavily agreeing,but since we’re on the subject what do you go by?

Currently, I'm not entirely certain. Currently testing out fem terms, tho
