FWIW, I like low-pitched female voices as well as higher ones. I'd call them "sexy" except that "sexy" is kind of a null concept for me. "Powerful" seems more correct, but may not convey the same feeling to other people. (I suppose it's odd that I consider "powerfulness" to be an important element of what-I-like-about-femininity.)

I used to have the same reaction to my voice, though -- even before adolescence, when gender wouldn't really have made much difference. I guess I've come around to thinking of it as an instrument and trying to get the widest use out of it, which includes both singing deep bass parts where they seem called for and keeping up with Kate Bush or Goldfrapp (without sounding too falsetto-ish). Here's me trying to sound female and not really succeeding (http://media.hypertwins.org/woozalia/ci-dctd-demo.mp3) despite coming fairly close. (When you keep coming close to the target but always falling to one side of it, it becomes clear that there's something in the way that may not be solvable with mere practice... which is kind of distressing.)
