I can't think of too many guys off the top of my head who laugh in falsetto. Tom for one. That's about it. Except for me, I've started to.
So I was on the phone with some dude trying to extract a wild guess for a cost to implement a project, and since I was going to ask him to guess about the project, I laughed while I was starting my conversation with him.
He called it a giggle.
I don't think I like my laugh being called a giggle.

Yeah, makes you sound nervous, not necessarily manly, huh? Although, I know a few men who are definitely MEN and they definitely can giggle. Well, I think the one guy calls it, "Kittering." whatever.

4. What is your idea of a dream date? (I love to ask people that quesion!)
5. French fries or onion rings?
6. Chocolate or vanilla?
7. What song do you completely lose yourself in? You know, like you are totally GONE and forget about yourself. That's where the whole "drowning in the music comes in.
8. Can Tom really cook?
9. Would you rather have people call your laugh a giggle or an exuberant snort?

Okay, that will work until I run across more.
Byran, the lights are on you and your fan club awaits your reply with ready anticipation.

I've done some intense research in regards to men deviating to the horrid, hated, and much degrading giggle-laugh. The deductions are this: The giggle-laugh is a malady that strikes young tenors. Some cases have been detected in a few baritones and leads, but rarely have any basses been known to fall to such depths. The only know cure is to immediately begin a transformation to Basshood. Notibly the deep Russian style bass's have the best results.

Hey, if a woman likes my "giggle" then it's all good, right? Come to think of it, it has been favorably commented on by at least one other female.
Darin (or should I say Dmitri?), I suggest huddling with Tom if you want to make fun of tenors! But then, without knowing you, I'd guess you either a tenor or a lead.
I have a suggestion By. No answers for Ag until she reveals her identity!
Ha ha!
Tom
Ach no. No tenor am I, nor am I a lead. I is a barily-tone. In our chorus I snooker people into believing I'm a bass, but that's merely a myth.
A question I have for you: Is the tenor/lead instead of 1st and 2nd tenor just a west coast thing or what? Mayhap I'm just behind the times.
Hmm, must be a Smucker thing. I know someone else who giggles....;)
The impression I get is 1st/2nd tenor is more traditional terminology among Mennonites. I don't know. Tom?
3 things. Having 1st & 2nd tenor confuses some of us poor blondes... Lead and tenor is so much less confusing!!! Also, one of the guys I know that giggles, well, when he sings, it's bass.... But he don't sing very well. And if ya'll are gonna pick on tenors, there's a reason for Tom to create a 'site. Ya'll can do it there!! Lauren
Yay for Lauren defending tenors.
So Tom when are you gonna create your own site?
I have a handful of sites already, plus I'm working on several more for other people/organizations. Time is a little short. But I do have a bunch of ideas, someday they will be implemented.
Tom
