I am not asking this to be condescending, I’m genuinely curious. But are you 100% certain that its within everyone’s capability? Could a bass, ever transition to a fully passable female voice? And also is the reverse true? Is every female capable of doing a male voice?

You said in an earlier comment you became more talkative as a result of the surgery, and you said you also take Ritalin now. I know my add medication makes me more talkative, so I wonder if that is from the surgery or the medication?

This is very interesting. I had noticed a lot of these things in trying to do vocal impressions of women (i am a guy). I think people definitely downplay how large of an effect vocal inflection plays in sounding like a specific gender. However, as you mentioned, I think pitch and chord thickness (I think) are also a large factor in sounding like your desired gender, specifically in a male to female transition. I feel that while most people with low voices could hit the notes and match the inflection of a female voice, but I’d be hesitant to say that most baritones/basses could match the vocal weight of a female. But I also could entirely be wrong! Lol. I think afab women might have it easier (even without the use of testosterone) due to the fact that men (to my knowledge) have a much larger spectrum of voice weights/types that you could fall under
