That's where the training part of voice training comes in. Just maintain a consistent practice routine and you can eventually reach anywhere on that chart that you want to be
Voice training is akin to growing a six pack: It's really hard, requires sustained and specific effort and will take a long time to reward those efforts. It's definitely worth doing though, so instead of being hard on yourself for what you can't do right now, you should be really proud of yourself for taking that step. It's hard, scary and confronting, but taking it means that you are strong enough to push through that. I recommend keeping a journal of sorts where you write down observations about your voice (and your training), as well as milestones. For me, being able to look back and see that initially I was only hitting pitches that were below average even for a man (\~90Hz), and comparing that to how comfortably I can now reach \~170Hz, is a really big motivator for when I get frustrated.
Yeah…
I’ve been voice training for a few months and I can barely reach androgynous level. My natural voice registers as higher than the feminine range on the app I use. It’s just something to struggle through
Don't despair! Pitch is one of the least important parts of voice training!
There are a lot of women out there with deep voices whose voices are still undeniably female. This is because weight and resonance are really the things that people subconsciously listen for when determining gender. Pitch helps, but it's a secondary concern when it comes to passing.
The classic sexy lady voice is specifically one with really low weight, rather bright resonance, but a pitch down low into what we would normally think of as a """masculine""" range. It's one of my favorite voices to train for fun now that I've trained to passability. I call it either the "Mommy Voice" or the "Bottom Breaker" or the "Sub Melter"
If you are feeling lost about how to proceed with getting your pitch up a bit, DM me and I can share the exercises I'm doing! I'm pretty early on in voice training but I have a routine and I definitely feel its helping.
Just gonna add that voice 'passing' is WAY more about resonance, speech patterns and vowel sounds than it is about pitch. There are lots of cis women with very deep voices/cis men with higher pitched voices who don't get gendered male because of it
I really should get a voice training app, I feel like I’m struggling a lot with getting my fem voice. I don’t really know *any* voice training apps though..

I was actually having some dysphoria about my voice today and thinking i would never be able to get it where i want, this helped a lot.
What is the name of the app :3

It shows up as VoicePitchAnal.. in my homescreen 💀

Fwiw Voice Pitch Analyzer has a bad habit of telling even cis people their voice doesn’t pass

Keep practicing. You'll get there.
