Why I don't make Comfort or SO Audios

Me: So here's why I don't make comfort audios or SO Audios... 😅
Anyway! I listen to a lot of comfort audios and SO (Significant Other like girlfriend/boyfriend) audios myself and I really enjoy them, so why don't I make them?
I tread lightly when it comes to the kinds of videos I make. I keep it relatively light, funny, and upbeat because anything more serious makes me uncomfortable. You know how you cringe when you hear your own voice recorded? I have to edit hours upon hours of my own voice, so I'm more used to that, but if it's too serious that makes me cringe.
The same thing applies to the ASMR I listen to. I only listen to male-voiced ASMR. Anything with a woman makes me cringe. I really don't know why, but I can't get through anything with a woman's voice. Especially serious topics. And since my voice is female, the same cringe-factor applies. Which bugs me, because there are a lot of talented women va's out there I'd like to support! But alas. The Cringe is the master and I am a servant.
Long story short, I'm not comfortable making them. At least, I haven't been comfortable making them. I've started making more comforting/romantic audios recently. (Chilling with your Supervillain Roommate, Bonding with your Queen) I think that's mainly because the community my channel has built has been so welcoming and wholesome. I feel safer and that's allowed me to write and record some scripts I wouldn't have originally.
Additionally, I feel uncomfortable pretending to be in a relationship or pretending to comfort strangers over the internet. Say what you will, it’s my preference. At the end of the day, it’s my channel and I make the content I feel comfortable making.
This could change in the future. But as of right now, that’s why I don’t make those kinds of audios. :)
Hope you have a good day!
Edit: almost a year later and I am confident enough in my voice to release a series of comfort audios :)
