Dear Shanazel,
My father also comes from a loud family, but it seems like they all talked at the top of their lungs all the time with no lull!! They all had these booming voices, even the females. One of my sisters and two of my brothers have that same voice. I was raised in a house with 7 brothers and sisters and when I left there, I moved in with three bikers. The first time I went to visit my family, I was amazed at how LOUD it was, compared to living with the nice, peaceful So Cal bikers!! A lot of it was not even them being loud, but just that there were so MANY of them. I had never noticed it when I lived at home.
Regards,
A'isha
