Gender issues aside, speaking as a daily text-to-speech user this voice doesn't sound particularly natural or pleasing. The accent seems to constantly shift between American and British, and there is some weird audio phasing going on. It sounds more like a Hollywood director's idea of what robots should sound like than something I'd actually want to listen to.
