Too much debating going on. I prefer to spread love....or lust.

So what accent tends to get you going?

I myself love a woman with a British accent. Women with Russian and Latin accents get my motor going too :fluffle:

Fran Drescher's accent, Elmer Fudd's, I like the way Large Marge from Pee Wee's big adventure talked too.

Shane MacGowan's

Irish
posh southern English
Aussie
NZ
South African
American (I prefer accents from the southern states, mmmmmm Texans, but everywhere is good really)

I come from the south east of England (Brighton) and my boyfriend is from the north west (near Liverpool). We both like each others' accents because they aren't too strong...

...Except when we get stressed out, when I apparently sound Cockney and his voice raises pitch so he sounds proper Scouse.

I do like an Eastern European tinged accent though :)

British, Russian, and asian....heh.

South African

There is no such accent as 'South African.' South Africa has about a dozen different cultures: Afrikaners, Zulus, Xhosas, English...

Which of them did you have in mind?

I find men with Croatian accents very sexy!

Scottish ,Irish, Cockney, Aussie and that accent they got in Fargo.

Fran Drescher makes me want to commit murder.

Who's Shane McGowan?

Who's Shane McGowan?

He is the greatest man ever of all time. Well he used to be a man, now he is more like a living breathing skin covered mass of jameson's whiskey and Guiness. He sings for the Pogues.

HEATHEN!


The Pogues singer

Foghorn Leghorn's (which, apparently, I sound like) :D

Who are the Pogues?

What country are they from?

i dunno, I've always found it to be a really strange accent, I can never work it out, that's why I find it so intriguing, I always thought it sounded a bit like a mixture of Aussie and English, but I've only met like 5 people from SA so I dunno

This objection could be rasied to any of the replies on this thread. The OP says "Latin" for example. This covers an entire continent and a half of accents. There is no such thing as English, which you cite as an accent, nor British.
However to people who are not from that place, or have not lived there for any time, there is a general South African, or a general Latin or British accent. Stop being picky.

I go for Lowland Scottish, or São Paulo Brazilian. But there is also something attractive about South East Asian women speaking English.

There's a Russian lady here at work, everytime she calls down here for computer help I absolutely melt hearing her voice.

The girl of my dreams is British, everytime I hear her voice I fall in love with her all over again. It's the cutest thing hearing her say words like naughty, and garage.

I have a British accent, but accents which turn me off are really common British ones. I'm sorry, I don't have anything against the people themselves but I guess I'm a bit of an accent snob in that respect.
Otherwise, I love loads of accents. I like Irish, and southern state accents from the US, but my front runner has to be Italian... mmm... Portugese, Spanish, Croatian, Polish, Romanian, Swedish, Estonian... I'm just a great big accent slut, lol!

Scottish accents destroy all others.

The Pogues (http://www.bcpl.net/~lpettijo/3rdpage.html)

Aussies, Irish, Brits, Russians, and Germans all have cool accents.

Irish accents make me melt, Eastern European accents are quite nice too. And Dutch accents... I'm not sure if it's cos I find them sexy...or just cos they make me giggle :p (no I have no idea why). Maybe its a combination of the two.

And some Dutch, bien sûr.

lol there are lots of things she says that I love. She makes me repeat things because she likes to giggle at my accent.

If you ever call me naughty you'll make the beast come out of me :fluffle:

and when a British girl says "bugger off" OH MY GOD *writhes in seat*

And Dutch accents... I'm not sure if it's cos I find them sexy...or just cos they make me giggle :p (no I have no idea why). Maybe its a combination of the two.
WHOO!


And me, I like every accent as long as it's still understandable.

Those are some of the goofiest non-computer nerds that I have ever seen :p

You hear that a lot, don't you?

My preferred accent is that of a nice Parisien bitch.

This guy has been drinking since he was 5

and coming in at number 1. irish-scottish/ celtic !!!

i used to know this Aussie guy who thought it was hot when I said 'how rude' that always used to make me laugh lol

Oh, you should whisper sweet nothing in my ear so we can :fluffle:



I've only spoken to one Irish girl. She was a waitress at a restaurant in one of our beaches. It sounded kind of weird and attractive at the same time.

American.

Too much debating going on. I prefer to spread love....or lust.

So what accent tends to get you going?

I myself love a woman with a British accent. Women with Russian and Latin accents get my motor going too :fluffle:

I prefer an accent on the e, sometimes on the o, but definitely not on the i because they are hard to see.

You hear that a lot, don't you?

My preferred accent is that of a nice Parisien bitch.

not really, my girl says it sometimes if we're joking around. Her voice and accent sound perfect.

She used to call me a barbarian because I bastardise her language lol

i used to know this Aussie guy who thought it was hot when I said 'how rude' that always used to make me laugh lol

I like the Brit term "queuing" as I mentioned yesterday.

. i am def. preferrential to the boston, massachusetts accent. since i have it myself, but live in california.

foreign wise?- norwegian, for sure. (i hear it every morning, ggrrrr!) finish, swedish, those as well. i have a scottish friend, from glasgow, i make him read cookbooks to me. i havent heard many many accents, but i will say irish speakers make me crack up laughing for some reason.

I like southern accents,irish,scottish, and i love the way a spanish woman speaks english, i don't know but that bit of accent always does something to me... :D

I think I speak for everybody when I say...Sean Connery ;)

I'm a complete accent snob in terms of English ones. I'll only talk to people with accents as posh as mine or posher. This means i don't talk to a lot of people in my area. :P
Other than that; Irish, maybe Canadian.

I like Irish and Scottish accents. Australian and Cajun accents are cool to. Also if you get out to the eastern part of VA there are a lot of people who have this really neat accent but I'm not sure what it's called. Ward Burton has it though. :)

English accents! Just about all of them are cool, but the cockney and posh variations are just special... fascinates me. The Scottish and Irish have awesome accents, albeit not the easiest to understand. Aussie is good if you're talking about crocs. ;p

I have no idea what the difference is between a cockney or what the other one is. English women just sound super hot to me.

English, New Zealand, Aussie and South African all sound the same to me unless I really concentrate on them.

ICELANDIC ACCENT!

I like the basic New York accent the most. I'm also partial to Irish and British (South London).

Bostonians are wicked smaht.

Any european ('specially british) and seth effrican

Almost forgot about da Pittsburgh accent!

"Yinz wanna go dahntahn 'n watch tha Stillers game? Ah'll bring some Ahrn City 'n bratwurst for tha tellgate."

bugs bunny's! HOT *drools*

I like several of the various British accents (they're not all the same), I also like the scandinavian accents, Italian, Russian and Hungarian.

Scottish ,Irish, Cockney, Aussie and that accent they got in Fargo.

Ya? I watched Fargo last night.
Me I like the Norweigen accent, or North-East Scotish (Isles) accents - you betcha!

I don't like North East or Southern accents on girls.

Mainly because I have a north east accent and I think both accents sound kind of dumb.

Latin american girls sound pretty hot too when speaking in broken English.

...or just cos they make me giggle :p (no I have no idea why).

I've just discovered why they make me giggle. It's the word "Nederland". Just that one word. I think it sounds fantastic :D
<3 The Dutch :p

i love the australian accent, i think it is sooo cool, like claire from lost and steve irwin, i love them :D

i love the australian accent, i think it is sooo cool, like claire from lost and steve irwin, i love them :D

The pregnant girl, right? I looooved hearing her talk, but then I lost interest in Lost and never watched it again.

a girl like Minnie Driver talking to you :fluffle: :fluffle:

I've also never been a fan of people who over pronounce their "r".

As read in my accent: Ahv also-ah nevah been a fan of pipple who ovah pronounce theyah "ah".

i love the australian accent, i think it is sooo cool, like claire from lost and steve irwin, i love them :D

I don't know what the girl from lost sounds like, but i'm sorry to report that we don't sound like Steve Irwin. I think his "accent" is just for show, to be honest.
