Belting is a calling voice . I don't see why men can't have it. I have not
however heard the term "belter" applied to men. At theatrical auditions,whre
the sexes are divided,the men are generally grouped as one: Male singers. The
womens auditions are however divided: Women Legit and Belters.
My voice teacher is an expert on belting.He teaches legit singers to belt for
the broadway stage ( Bel Canto Can Belto) I will see him later and ask.
