Accents

[ShowMeGal]

Ladies and Gents... do you find yourself attracted to people with different accents from your own? Not necessarily head-over-heels-attracted, just intrigued, maybe. Any weaknesses for a particular one? I tend to appreciate foreign tones the most, Italian or Aussie.

I guess a fair question would be to those who might be considered to have a strong accent, do you get tired of being recognized for it?

Apologies in advance if this has been done before.

When a gent with a Texan or British accent tells me I've been a bad girl, it's curtains for me.

When I was recognized as an East Texan three thousand miles from home by a waitress across the restaurant who was from a place fifty miles north east of here it was pretty cool.

It felt good to hear "HEY WHA PART OF EAST TEXAS Y"ALL FROM?" although no louder than I ordered I must have one serious accent!

Southern accents...

Those commercials on TV, for some cable or sat tv provider, starring Jessica Simpson... "I totally don't know what that means, but I want it" .. damn she sounds so hot!

Whenever I meet a girl with an accent, I feel the urge to skullfuck her. Even guys with accents make me a little gay. I love accents.

Except Southern accents, because it's typical. But Brooklyn, Irish, British, Aussie, Russian, etc. accents.

I've almost never heard an American accent I thought sounded good - to me they tend to sound flat (generic California), pinched (New York), slurred (Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and other non-Pennsylvania cities across the country), overly drawled (bad Southern/Midwestern/"country"). The rest just sound ordinary and don't interest me that much. I'm kind of interested in North Carolina accents because I lived there for 16 years and have developed a mild case of "I'm not there now, so it's more interesting now that I'm not in it" kind of thing.

I like foreign accents because they're normally used by people from places I haven't been or aren't in normally. It's that hardwired biological response to look for groups that aren't the same one I've been in all my life - mix with other peoples, keep the gene pool healthy, all that. But either way, I find foreign accents a lot more interesting than American ones, generally. I don't have a particular favorite - almost any accent can sound good or interesting. Jamaican, Irish, West African, Russian, German, Mexican, Indian, Hungarian, what have you. The only foreign accents I cringe a bit at hearing, regardless of voice quality or the person speaking, are stereotypical East Asian accents - the ones where the users have issues with pronouncing L and R, among other things. I can't put my finger on why, exactly - it probably has something to do with me hating the American Asiaphiles who will buy any piece of garbage in the universe so long as it has "Made in Japan" or "Made in Korea" or whatever stamped on the bottom. Sometimes those people go off in long streams of deliberately awful and stereotypical Engrish, so now I twitch when I hear someone from, say, Japan mispronouncing English words.

I can do some different American accents with varying degrees of competence - I can mangle a New York accent with the best of them, and I can do several different kinds of Southern Drawal. In my opinion I'm pretty good at reproducing some foreign accents. I know there are lots of accents I can't do yet, but y'know. Give it time. One of my best and favorites is a rolling Scotch burr - I'm basically trying to sound like Kevin McKidd when I do it. I'm not stupid enough to try it on actual Scottish people unexpectedly, but one of these days I'd like to get the opinion of someone who's actually from Scotland as to whether I'm anywhere close. And unlike all those Americans who think rolling Rs and mispronouncing "Alba Go Bragh" makes a Scottish accent, when I do it I get my throat to do that swallow-sound thing that I can't describe because I don't know what to call it. Listen to Kevin McKidd in one of the movies where he isn't putting on an American accent and you'll get an idea of the kind of thing I'm talking about if you listen closely enough. The most accurate way I can think of to describe it is to imagine that the throat bulges sometimes when you're pronouncing the letters U and O.

I LOVE accents! I don't know that I've ever heard one I haven't liked. Men with accents become instantly about twice as attractive as they would be without one. I've travelled around a fair amount, and by far, my favorite are the Australian/New Zealand accents, but I also love guys from England and Ireland too. There's just something about listening to a guy with an accent talk that turns me on every time. I think it's definitely time for another vacation

 

[BuffRudy]

I like Australian accents. That's it. I absolutley despise British, Southern, Asian or Middle Eastern accents. The Middle Eastern accents are the worst. They all sound like they have phleghm in their throats & are constantly trying to clear their throats. It is the most annoying sound.

 

[leZilla]

After being married to a frenchman with an almost unintelligible accent, I am totally turned off to them. People with accents are just as likely to be assholes than anyone else. Picture that dude with a sexy accent without the accent...and he is suddenly just another asshole.

 

[Nott]

I've noticed that they have no accent with my dick in their mouth.

Just sayin'.

Despise southern accents? How is it possible?

There are about 12 distinct southern accents and many blends. I'm sure we could find one pleasing to your ears.

Serves you right for marrying a cheeseeatingsurrendermonkey.

I agree. Northern English, Irish, Scottish, and some Southern drawls are my favorites. I'm not keen on the harsh tones of Boston and New York accents. I like lilt, and they don't have it.

 

[lushlucid]

Most accents are cool
canadian is probly my fav

That's what southerners think. The rest of us can hear two different southern accents, and they pretty much sound alike.

 

[LOST&FOUND]

My accent is rather nondescript and people are always surprised about where I come from.

Its like eskimoes and all their colors of snow.

I just got back from a vacation in Northern California, and being a chatty tourist, many people asked where I'm from. I surprised many people by saying Texas; they all said I didn't have the expected accent. Of course, I'm originally from southern California, but it's more fun to mess with them and answer with my adopted state.

i have to admitt that since moving here, I do get a bit of a kick out of the "swoon" i often get
