From HandWiki

Deep voice privilege is the presumed social privilege gained by those with a deep voice.

A study has possibly found a correlation between voice pitch, salary and size of business for chief executive officers.[1][2]

A spectral analysis of United States presidential debates found that a fundamental frequency of phonation below 500 Hertz was a good predictor of success in the popular vote.[3]
