What is the most attractive accent?

There is nothing that will make my knees melt more than a woman with an Irish accent. No other voice even comes close. goes to listen to The Thistle and Shamrock on NPR in rapt bliss

For least attractive, I would have to say most asian accents. Maybe it is that with the structure of the languages being utterly different, the accents become alien and hard to identify,I just do not like most asian accents.

Scottish.

Especially if the guy is in full kilt regalia.

Humina humina humina.

A cute girl with any British Isles accent is damn near irresistable.

British accent as spoken by Felicity Kendal in The Good Life.

East Texas does it for me, as does Irish.

Many years ago, I dated a woman whose father was British and her mother was Cajun. She had a unique, intoxicating accent.

A nice enough girl can make any accent sound sexy. Even Scouse!
(I have yet to hear a girl make me feel the same way about a goerdie accent though)

English/Australian!

I’ve got a wicked Texas accent… :wink:

Women with British accents have the absolute sexiest voices. Eastern European and Russian accents aren’t bad either, though.

Most attractive, English, with the best English regional accent being Liverpool. And not just because of the Beatles (though John Lennon and George Harrison’s speaking voices are both pretty attractive, in my opinion). Second, probably a moderately strong Irish accent.

Worst…either Asian, for the reasons you mentioned, Maud’Dib, or a guy with a Southern accent, though I’ve seen some men pull it off okay…just not many. French accents don’t do anything for me, either.

A Southern accent can sound pretty sexy on a woman, though.

What are you people talking about!?!
Russian, of course!

Sutheren…the more sutheren, the better. Deep Georgia…maybe a touch of Alabama…yum! An accent that, if it moved any further South, would be Spanish.

You can get a little further South than Georgia or Alabama before you get into Spanish.

I just watched ‘quills’. I may be biassed but hearing the perfect english ladylike accent coming from something as divinely beautiful as Amelia Warner kind of helps the case for ‘old posh english’.
(the link is just one picture, and it doesn’t do her anywhere near the justice that watching the film did, so the joy of googling to find anything better is left to those that are interested. Please feel free to post or e-mail a link if you find anything you think I will like)

Ya, but Florida is full of transplanted New Yawkers. And, even though my family hails from Texas, I just don’t find the Texas accent all that attractive.

awaiting the usual jokes about two bottoms - …

(I can’t help putting too many 's’s in ‘biased’)

A woman with a nice, rich, drawling Southern accent is quite a turn-on.

Scottish/Irish/Austrailian accents are nice too.

I dated a Canadian girl once, and her slight Sudbury-area lilt was very cute. Also the fact that she said “pop” instead of “soda” and did in fact say “eh” a few times.

My least favorite accents are Asian accents. I don’t know why, but the different structures of the language just don’t make for a pleasant-sounding cadence when they speak English.

And, despite the fact that I live in Maryland, I cringe sometimes when I hear a attractive woman talking in a Baltimore accent. It’s never “How are you?”, it’s always “Hah yoo?”

British by far. Irish next up, with Scottish on it’s heals. And Spanish (Think Antonio Banderas or the Inigo Montoya character from Princess Bride). ooh

I love accents and since I’ve lived for a long time in the Pacific Northwest, my own is depressingly boring. I agree with all the Irish/Scottish/Bristish choices and I love Spanish and French too. The best American accent is from Savannah, Georgia.

But my absolute favorite is Israeli.

Go me! ~hometown is an hour south of Savannah~

I love a man with a nice Texas drawl, as long as it’s not hillbilly…

And a slight hijack, men that say ma’am…Mmmm, that’s just adorable.
