why do people on cell phones yell?

seriously… wtf.
when people are on normal phones they talk at a normal level, but give them a cell phone and they feel the need to kick it up a notch.

what causes this?

they are important?

definitely

Because you can’t hear yourself through the earpiece

On a regular land line, your voice comes through on the earpiece. If you are talking too loud, then you know because you are hearing yourself though it. Kind of like the way you know you are yelling too loud when talking.
On a cell phone, there is no return of your voice on the earpiece. Not only can a person not tell how loud they are talking but their voice is being muffled by the earpiece on one side so they speak louder to sound like they normally do when speaking in person.

Thats my theory anyway.

I’ve been told I talked loud on the cell phone, usually because I can’t hear shit for what they’re saying, and it’s natural to speak louder as a result.

i always thought its because people buy these small phones and they think because their mouth is not right by the part you speak in their for u have to talk louder in order for them to hear

REPOST.

Maybe because it is so small people think it minimizes their voice?
