I’ve loved the accent of every Irish woman whom I’ve heard speaking. ---

> [@](#): > > Arabic, esp. those who speak Farsi :dubious: Farsi is a nice accent, but Farsi being an Indo-Iranian language, it sounds nothing like my beloved `Arabiyyah. And I completely forgot about Ukrainian! Whether it’s Ukrainian-accented Russian or Ukrainian-accented English, it’s all good. ---

> [@Mausmagill](#): > > Am I the only one who read the thread title as “Sexist Accent”? > > That being said, I would have to go with German. I remember a very nice German exchange student I never had the nerve to ask out. Thank you. I need to get my eyes checked - I saw the thread title at work, and thought… How the hell can an accent be sexist? But I didn’t get a chance to open the thread. Saw it again, just now, and I swear, it said sexist. Had to open it to figure out WTF it was about. Got to post 4 before I realized it had said “sexiest.” ---

Russian, Russian, Russian. Ever seen _A Fish Called Wanda_? It doesn’t quite do that to me, but close. 🙂 I could also listen to Billy Boyd for hours on end. Even if he’s reading the financial times to me. Or the phone book. Or garment care labels. You get the idea. ---

Another vote for Scottish (Ewan McGregor…_melts into warm puddle of goo_a) And Russian or just Slavic. Goran Visnjic anyone? (In this case, it would be Serbo-Croatian). _drool_ ---

On women, it’d be an upscale British accent, ala, Olivia Williams or Kate Beckinsale. ---
