Are there certain voice types that are naturally built to sing?

I don't mean baritone or tenor but are their certain people with a voice that is just operatic voice? For example if you saw a 6'4, big boned man you would say that person is built to play lineman regardless of the skill aspect.

Or is opera more about technique and skill based.

Why is it bad to say that a lot of woman place importance on status/money when dating?

If you said that men only date men for their looks, or that men love younger women, a lot of people would probably agree with those statements. I'm wondering why, when someone makes what they see as the equivalent statement about women, it's often met with a lot more anger or backlash.

And to be clear: not all men, not all women, not all people. I'm talking about general perceptions and reactions, not claiming these things apply to everyone.

TN visa still stable for the next 10 years?

Trump recently said no longer any renewal for the USMCA wondering if that means we are fine until 2036?

Or is it still anytime they can cancel the visa process. I am still in the phase of setting up my life and will probably move soon around age 28. I am an accountant in Canada so should be pretty easy to find work somewhere in public. I just wonder having children in the next 2 -3 years while I'm there will cause what type of struggle. Money in Canada is very tight even with experience.

How do Americans land financial analyst, credit analyst, FP&A straight out of school?

I am located in Canada and these positions are pretty much senior even at entry level. Most of them have big 4 experience and CPA so around 3 years of work experience. Pretty much unheard of unless they went to a top school and got lucky into a rotational program. Reality is that a new grad doesn't have much skill. Whereas on here I see people who almost seem like they settled into these positions. Is it because the bar is lower due to a huge amount of opportunity available?

Why do some teachers say proper singing is unrestrained when singing is about restrained breathe control?

When I first had couple teacher and didn’t understand cord closure or onsets I kept blowing tons of air in an attempt to create an unrestrained sound. After all these years I realize that proper singing has closure and a sense of restrained of air created with the body. In he past I just kept blowing more and more and trying not to hold the sound.

Are these mid size audit hours reasonable?

My audit firm I was recently looking at said 55 during peak 2 months minimum but 35 after the first 4 months, with Fridays off in June, July.

Wondering for 55 hours is that broken up the way I think it is? Like 6 days a week and about 10 hours a day so 9am - 7pm. Doesn't seem that bad only for 2 months?

How do some people just talk C4 area? ( Men )

THere are streamers I watch, yes they are annoying but notice that they can just speak in these high ranges. Obviously they never took voice lessons so doesn't mean they can sing there, but for myself I speak in C3 range and these people naturally have this unrestricted shout to them.

Tension when I try to open my mouth?

I know I speak pretty quietly in speech but in opera I notice whenever I try to open my mouth the configuration changes. I don’t have tension when my mouth is small

and naturally but when open it brings tongue tension. idk if this is normal or just a habit.

Anyone have ADHD and struggle studying?

I always struggled hard studying, I don’t think my innate intelligence is low since I did well on standardized testing around 90+ percentile. however did horrendously on college and lost focus, had 2.3 gpa.

I do fine at work and actually work pretty hard. never had any issues but for some reason when I open up a lecture my brain turns into mush.

I think with lectures you have to juggle so many new concepts which lead to my brain giving up. Also it’s quite boring to listen to.

Anyone keep voice practice minimal in between lessons?

I know one person suggested this in college wondering if its common. I know for other instruments this would be sort of unacceptable. I guess my college prof was saying that singing is not about long hours of practice but habits that need to be changed which can b very hard to notice during individual practice. He said do other passive work but not so much technique work in between lessons just so you don't develop terrible habits. This is moreso at the college level not profesisonal.

Why don’t athletes of other sports disregard time to sprint technique?

I know obviously it’s a different sport but for every sport like soccer, football, basketball being able to run fast and accelerate is key.

I see great soccer players known for speed such as Ronaldo and mbappe yet swing their arms out like a madman and kick their legs sideways, clenching their teeth and tightening every muscle.

makes you wonder why with all the resources they don’t invest in proper sprinting mechanics. like they don’t even have to go balls deep with starting blocks but just even the fundamentals.
