There's good reasons for all of this.
Smaller animals have smaller vocal cords and chests and produce higher-pitched sounds (usually, there are exceptions of course). So when we are trying to sound nonthreatening or submissive, we make our voices sound higher, smile, and generally act ingratiating. Sometimes we do this to be friendly, too, or to talk to small things like babies.
Larger and more dominant animals have deep voices and most of them have a growl, including us. When we are angry, we stand up, loom, lower our voice and growl.
