It is fascinating to me how much we are influenced by the things we see and hear.
I can practically detect which women I meet are active users of TikTok because they display certain nuances and tics which are fairly specific to women who upload videos to that platform. It doesn't bother me, but it is interesting from an ethnographic POV.

There's a famous result showing that Japanese women pitched their voices higher when speaking (native) Japanese than they did when speaking (acquired) English.
