Sexiest Accents.

[Rain Man]

Hypothetical situation here, at the suggestion of Coochie Liquor. (Oh, hey, I just figured out his username.)

Ignoring the fact they're a tax-evading sham "nonprofit", you go to Ikea and buy a new trombone storage unit for your Glen Miller collection. It's of course unassembled, and you can't figure out how the part goes in that stores the spit valves, so you call the help line.

You press 1 for English, then press 4 for assembly assistance, then press 7 for musical instrument collection storage equipment assistance, then press 5 for trombone collection storage equipment assistance, then press 0 to talk to a live person. You wait for a few moments to the background tune of Abba's "Dancing Queen", and then a person answers. That person is of the gender that you are attracted to.

The person speaks very clear English with a pleasant voice, but with a notable accent. What are the THREE accents that you find most sexy?

[bdj23]

I used to be friends with the super cougary gal from Bulgaria, her accent made her 10x hotter.

[EPodolak]

A couple of those American accents should be used in the war on terror.

[RINGLEADER]

My last GF was British. After her came my wife who is Italian.

Italian wins.

Man, I had no idea that people found a southern twang to be sexy. I see some other Puerto Rico fans in the house, though. They have excellent accents.

[Chiefshrink]

Are you single Rain Man ???

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Why wasn't the gargling accent an option ?

[vailpass]

Is mute an accent?

[Rain Man]

Are you single Rain Man ???

Nope, happily married. This poll was made at the request of Coochie Liquor, though even a married man can enjoy a nice accent.

I think it's more of a lackcent.

I assumed that French would run away it and it would just be a battle for silver and bronze. Color me shocked.

It might have if you said language, but accent isn't the same.

[Al Bundy]

I work with an Icelandic woman, and her accent is out of control hot. Ohh and she is absolutely beautiful as well.

Putting Australian at the bottom is burying the lead. Just save people the time.

This poll is flawed. There is British, but there are many accents in the good old UK! Where is the option for Cockney tart or Manchester trollop?

Oi, luv, fancy a shag?

Just because you're not hungry doesn't mean you can't look at the menu!!

[Simply Red]

Don't mean to be a downer - but my favorite accent is when they shut the fuck up.

[Demonpenz]

Southern

Specifically the Carolinas, ftw.

[Spott]

Anything but British and Southern.

[GloucesterChief]

French can be a bit harsh sound to me as well as German. Italian and Spanish are much softer. the New Zealanders, Australians, and South Africans all have pretty sexy accents.

Brits, Irish, and, Scots can vary a lot.

[Buehler445]

My favorite, South African, isn't listed. That's South African like the late Reeva Steenkamp.

There is a doctor here from South Africa. She's decent but her accent is out of this world. My vote would go here too.

[Coochie liquor]

Thanks Rain Man. Lots of good options

1 Jamaican
2 Australia
3 southern twang

[Gadzooks]

"A slight speech impediment where the person pronounces r's as w's "

I wouldn't call that a slight speech impediment. I would find it hilarious at first and then disturbing, (a sign of previous sexual abuse).

Completely accurate. I can do the accent that my relatives have. Let's just say that it wasn't anywhere near as successful as my "normal" accent.

Do you still have an accent after all these years in the US?

[Donger]

My normal speaking voice is an American accent. It automatically changes to British if I speak with or get around my family, or other Brits (or even empire to a lesser extent). Some Americans can hear my British accent even when I'm speaking like an American, but not many. I can also turn it on at will, or when requested.

My family has never heard my American accent "live" although one of my brothers thinks it's hilarious to call my mobile and get my voicemail, which is with my American accent. "You sound like a fucking used car salesman!!!"

LMAO

He never learned to speak like an American. He's kind of a dick.

I dated a Costa Rican girl. Her English was painfully, embarrassingly bad but her accent was really hot. I'd probably rank British and aussie as my favorites.

[Discuss Thrower]

I can't distinguish "angry, headmistress about to fuck up your day" Brit English from "I was repressed by an angry headmistress and I'm gonna fuck you for an entire day" Brit English.


I vote Irish and French.

A friend of mine married a Brazilian. She's lived here for a decade and her accent is still one of the roughest things I've heard.

Also, I picked Virginia honey but Virginia has several accents. There is the Tidewater accent from where I am from up to Richmond. There is the Appalachian accent from the Blue Ridge. Then there is the NoVA accent less people.

There are also smaller accents like Guinea, Tangier, and the Eastern Shore.

Oh damn, forgot about southern. Had a female acquaintance from Joplin who's accent really did it for me.

Accents are just hot. Asian being the exception.

The worst accent is the Bronx/Brooklyn New York/New Jersey screech. Grates on my ears.

Yeah I've never met a someone who's obvious Southern twang signaled any sort of equally obvious intelligence.

Growing up I noticed that the kids in the area about a mile east of where I lived, had a different accent. They pronounced their vowels differently and had a slightly different cadence.

Eventually, they joined our school for Junior High. I learned the nuances and could do a dead on impression after a while.

Years later, I was in a job interview in a different city and heard the same accent from the hiring manager, (10 years my senior). It turns out he he grew up in the epicenter of the accents origin. I was a shoe in for the job but I slipped in the accent to be sure to secure the gig.

That was probably my favorite 3 years of work. It was a naturally great pairing but the fact that we both grew up in the same area made the bond a bit stronger.

#1 British and it's the only one.

Irish and Scottish are to hard to understand. Nothing sexy about asking "What?" a thousand times in one evening.

Are you from the south? My initial opinion is that southern accents = stupidity but the one girl I got to know that had one....hnngh

[rico]

American Minnesota, easily. I went to college in Dubuque, Iowa. That is located in Northeast Iowa on the border of Illinois and Wisconsin. Dubuquians tend to have an accent that derives from a Minnesota accent... Some of the people at my college were actually from Minnesota...Minnesotans and Dubuquians sound alike. Anyways, that accent is cute as hell...I dated many girls from Dubuque that have that accent and my longtime roommate's girlfriend was a Minnesotan. Very cute accent.

It's kind of funny that Australian is leading this poll. I google searched what other countries think of American accents...If it is one group that hates our accents, it's the Australians.

[Rain Man]

I spent about five days hanging out with a Scottish guy a few years ago on a trip, and I'm pretty sure that he was interesting and funny based on the parts of sentences that I could understand.

[Buehler445]

Formal British
Australian
Italian

The formal Brittish thing is hot or miss. Haley Atwell could call me on the telephone and I'd do whatever the hell she told me to do. But wife's grandma was from Liverpool and that grated pretty hard. I don't know where Atwell is from in England but dialect has a lot to do with it.

Voice and cadence too.

I'm not sure where it centers, or even if it is more due her British or Indian upbringing, but Parminder Nagra has about the perfect accent.

I sense it's the British part, because Kate Beckinsale is NEARLY as intoxicating to listen to. She also has that husk in her voice, which isn't so much accent, but still very sexy.

Speaking of husk, I'm not attracted to Shohreh Agdashloo in the least, but that's a heck of a sexy voice.

I don't know the dialect either, but when I say "formal" I mean what you think of when you hear "proper" British: Kiera Knightly, Kate Winslet.

[oldman]

I'm all in on a French accent, whether it be from France or some parts of Louisiana. I'm also in on Texas girls. I'm going with Italian for my third choice. Screw the Brits.

[Predarat]

Dang way too many to pick just 3 but British is clearly #1 to me. American Southern and Texas accents are very nice, and almost all the Latina accents are. Australia and Kiwi too. Plus European/Russian.

[Fire Me Boy!]

Those of y'all loving the deep South accent need to come live here for a while.

[Baby Lee]

Not a matter of sexy, but a working class British [non-posh] makes a dude about 15% funnier. Corden, Carr, Gervais.

This clip rides exclusively on the strength of Corden's delivery. The concept's, . . . OK, but the execution is hilarious.

I don't like accents in general.

I actually despise any British accent outside of middle age epics like Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones.

I couldn't deal with it on a daily basis but sometimes I do find that Jersey girl accent alluring.

Margot Robbie and Scarlett Johansson have both pulled it off well.
