@Owlor No fuckin' way she'd voice train. She'd say she voice trains a lot, but she'll be lying.

I am surprised my trans girl strong bad voice poll got as much traction as it did and even more surprised by the result.

I was pulling for option 1, maybe a mixture of option 1 and option 2 depending on how much effort she felt like making/which voice she figures would annoy the person she's talking to the most.

I think there's maybe a disconnect between what Strong Bad would do if she was a person and what creative decision the showrunner would probably make.

Like I absolutely don't think Strong Bad would voice train and if you asked her to, she'd hit you with Teen Girl Squad until you told her to stop, but I don't think a cis showrunner could get away with doing a gag like that, they'd get so many emails.

Recasting her with a feminine voice actor and then playing it off as an absurdist joke is probably the safest option in terms of what the audience would actually accept.

@Owlor the voice changes in the middle of a sentence and the only one that notices is Strong Bad
"-what the crap happened to my voice?"
"Huwh?"
"Sounds like a chick now, like a hot one, y'know?"
"I thwought that's what youw awways sounded wike"
