Is it sexist to ask a female employee to speak with a higher voice?
This is a restaurant and I told her it's very off-putting to male customers to speak with her Hillary Clinton voice.

It’s not some stripper job it’s a fucking restaurant what the hell are you talking about.
“Sorry you can’t work here you’re not pleasing the men’s ears enough”
well, would you do the same to a man with a voice too high or with an inflection that was too feminine?
HR at my job sucks. They're basically management so its the fox guarding the hen house. They'll side with the managers unless its lawsuit worthy. Then theyll try to do damage control.
Where do you work again?
Whenever some jerk harassed me at work I would go to HR, and the the situation would get straightened out.
At a frieght company. This girl here kept going to HR but they had no proof and the guy harrassing her the boss of the HR people. She ended up bringing a voice recorder and caught him that way by threatening corporate to sue. Then they went into major damage control mode. The manager was a major bully. Cant remember exactly what she recorded but it was something like "youre so hot come back here and suck my dick."
If she spoke with a hillary Clinton voice, what you need is a restraining order.
Asking a female employee to speak with a higher voice?! Why? Unless her voice is super deep and actually manly and a lot of people complain, or feel uneasy, I don't see a problem.
You say you're running a restaurant, you don't need to make people talk like flirty, giggly schoolgirls. That's left to stip clubs and brothels.
Let the woman do her job.
I have a naturally deep broadcaster's voice, my singing range is alto, an I wouldn't change myself for anything, or anyone. I would, however, go straight to Human Resources, and report your bitch ass for discrimination, and sexual harassment!
Well dam higgetie, clamp my balls, twist my nipples and spit in my face.
Is she doing impressions of Hillary Clinton? If so then I think it's fair to ask her not to do that when speaking to customers.
If she just has a deep voice then you are going to get yourself sued if you tell her she has to change how she speaks.
