Why is Russian so nice? Russians sound like they are mad all the time when speaking to each other. And I’m married to a Russian woman. I actually like subtle accents, although what I liked listening to was an Iraqi woman do a British accent, which she was really good at. ---

I loooooooove a nice, sexy, English accent, Irish is pretty damn hot, too. I’ve noticed somethingm no one’s said Cajun! (I don’t think so, anyway.) I was under the impression that women all melted for a guy with a sexy, cajun accent. ---

Hands down for me, an asian girl with an English/British accent. Guaranteed to turn Jeff into a big melty pile of adoration. Yes indeed. Also, Irish, Aussie or South African accents…yum yum. ---

And I’m married to a Russian woman. \*\* I wonder if that’s a regional thing? A good friend of mine is a muscovite and to listen to him speak, in english and russian, is like music. Very smooth, soft and cultured sounding. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that he’s quite the hottie, too. And I have a friend who’s accent is a mixture of mandarin and dutch (quite a combo, huh?), and I love listening to him speak. He was born in China, but his family moved to The Netherlands when he was still fairly young. And another friend who’s accent is a combination of spanish, philipene and austrailian:eek: Of course, a german accent can sound pretty sexy when it comes from someone like Till Lindemann _drools_ ---

You can occasionally find one in Nuhwallins, but real Cajun Country is down Lafayette way. Give me a good Botier or Boudreau boy with black, black hair and bright blue eyes… especially if he actually knows some French… _ahhh…_ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-is-the-most-attractive-accent/192619.md?page=3)
