I think it was Gene Teirney who famously took up smoking in order to give herself a deep, seductive voice. And cigarettes are probably what caused Jackie O's voice to change as she grew older.

What does it mean there? Really I have trouble picking on one specific cultural construction of beauty/desirability/femininity and saying oh THAT one should be "natural" and not artificial.
