When a woman is frustrated, annoyed, or resentful with a man, her feelings show in her tone of voice. Her voice may or may not become louder, but her tone certainly becomes higher and/or sharper. A woman feels justified in speaking this way because she thinks she’s showing the depth of her feelings—if he hears how upset she is, not just from her words but the way she says them—then he’ll realize why she’s upset. Most women instinctively understand the reason for the tone. They might not like that edgy sound when they hear it from one of their female family members or friends, they might feel hurt or angry when it’s aimed at them, but they don’t tend to take it as personally as men do. (Unless we are talking about a mother dealing with a teenage daughter.)
