Kind of. I know it does to other people, but I don’t always feel or see the tone change they say they see. There are times there aren’t even changes and people still say they perceive something. I wonder if it’s a cultural thing, even if only partially, as I am not the same culturally as most others I see.
I’m not the other user, but I can firmly say mine doesn’t. People sometimes think I’m arguing with them when I’m actually agreeing with them because I speak with a bit of a monotone. It takes constant conscious effort not to do and makes me feel burned out and dishonest when I try. Apparently it’s an autistic trait and is far from the only reason I suspect I’m autistic.
I mean… you know that your tone implies your feelings, right?

Probably just means you’re on the spectrum. Most people intuitively understand tonality.
