They were then asked to rate the men on their sexual orientatn g a sle om zero (exclively heterosexual) to 10 (exclively homosexual).Listeners were also asked to rate each man’s perceived level of femy or masculy the voic on a siar sle.The men volved the study were asked to rerd themselv on a smartphone recg the first two l of the Atralian natnal anthem.Voice sampl were then modified to remove any background noise while volume levels were ma the same to ensure nsistency.Rults om the study showed listeners uld distguish between gay and straight men’s voic wh an accuracy of 62 per cent, apparently nsistent wh prev rearch.However, the study participants uld not terme any differenc between bisexual and straight men’s voic wh any gree of accuracy.

Acrdg to an troductory blog post penned by HuffPo's edorial director, Noah Michelson, the new name -- which replac HuffPost Gay Voic -- was chosen an attempt to create a more clive onle edorial space that better reprents the LGBT populatn at large.
"Historilly, the term "queer" has often been ed as a rogatory slur agast gay men, but as Michelson pots out, the word was reclaimed recent s as a way to intify and unify all people who fall wh the LGBT spectm. I hontly n't unt the reasons why I'm thrilled to beg today as Edor-at-Large of HuffPost Gay Voic. This is a pivotal, excg time for gay, lbian, bisexual and transgenr Amerins.
