Yeah, I noticed that too. I'm surprised no girl voices her and I wonder why.

Usually it's boy cartoon characters voiced by females (which I still find odd but it makes sense) and several of my favorite cartoon characters are victims (not really) of this:

Timmy Turner (Fairly Odd Parents)

Tommy and DIl Pickles, Phil Di'Ville, Chuckie FInster (Rugrats, and All Grown Up) (actually Chuckie isn't my favorite)

Bart Simpson

Jimmy Neutron

Miguel Santos, Tito Chavez, Andy Arlington (Maya and Miguel)

Steve (Curious George)

And more I could list

But it's rare to have a male voice a female cartoon character. "Isn't this world a crazy place?" (Vanessa Williams said that) This is a strange world we live in.

With Arthur running as long as it has, it's a wonder he and Brain have not been voiced by females and I wouldn't be surprised if it started happening.

Though it makes more sense to have adult females voice young boy cartoon characters, I honestly like it better when boys voice boy cartoon characters, but I admit it's more logical to have adult females voice them because boy voices tend to change and get deeper and they keep having to switch out boys.
