Why didn't you say so?

Best medical advice I ever got was to bring a man to your appointments

In the same vein, my Boomer Dad only listened to Alexa when it was set to male voice -_-

Wow

My dad only cared about the Alexa after we changed the voice to male and changed its name to ziggy

ziggy is allowed.

I don't quite get what you mean by "cared about the Alexa".

Under what conditions would you need to care about it? It doesn't proactively provide any instructions like a fire alarm does. It just responds to queries/commands.

The day we changed the settings he started asking it questions, was using it to listen to music. He went from using it zero to using it constantly

Oh my word I noticed this with my ex! He suddenly started getting better at following GPS directions when I set the voice to a male one.

Mfs brain unconsciously filters out anything said by a woman. Spectacular sexism performance. 

Also, anyone who has GPS voice directions sound on at all is a maniac.

That's amazing
