K (189?–?) Soviet pioneer.
From Kazan, Tartarstan, USSR, K was diagnosed as a ‘transvestite’ in 1937.

I actually scheduled a consult with a voice coach. It's been like, idk a year now and I have made no progress with my voice so hoping that a voice coach can help me. Only problem is that I'm not out at work so I will not be able to go full time with my voice :(
Only time I've ever had someone comment on my voice at work was a 10yo who laughed at how "tiny" my voice was when I accidentally went into a really high pitched customer-service voice in response to someone with a really deep voice. Granted, I haven't really intentionally tried to do a particularly fem voice, but I suspect my voice sometimes varies from masc to queer masc to fem all within single meetings accidentally and has for a couple years.
I don't think I ever even come off as queer masc to people. Like I'm not super masc and if I literally changed how my voice sounded, no one would question how I talk I don't think, but with my voice it's just like .. idk I can be in a dress and full makeup and I get he him'd. I figure it has to be my voice at this point
