When someone from here talks with me, one of the first things they say is, I thought you'd have some "sexy" accent or something.

Well, sorry to disappoint ya, but I've since lost any accent I had before moving to the U.S. full time 19 years ago.

I don't mind hearing, "I like your voice", blah blah blah... But for some reason I feel like they feel they've been let down because there's no accent there.

I like accents, don't get me wrong, but is expecting someone to have an accent because of their nationality, expecting too much?
 
accents suck, I hate all of them.:D

I hope Juspy, and wolfie, and free, and bindii, and sugahduck don't read this.:D
 
I don't usually 'expect' accents, but I like listening to them. I think, from the way I type, people expect me to have a twang or a drawl that just doesn't exist on the phone. In real life, my voice is different, and my accent sneaks in. I've trained myself not to sound like a hick on the phone. *shrug*

I wouldn't have expected you to have an accent though Lo, I know anyone who spends any time in the midwest quickly develops that 'accent from nowhere' that all newscasters seem to have. Even my vet, who's australian, is starting to sound ike a local. :(
 
I just LOVE Kitty's and Emi's West Virginia accents. Very sexy.

Of course....I'm a Texan.

:)
 
Yeah. I'm with perky. I really don't like accents at all. They don't turn me on, or, anything. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard.:rolleyes:

and then I would say "well, then I could"

and then you would say...

Your accent sucks.

Sorry. I had bad direction.
 
I've heard Perky sweet cheeks laugh on the audio thread.
Never heard anything so sexy and evil. LOL. Well, I did once the other night, but I won't mention any names. HE knows.

do you even have an accent? call me I'll tell you if it sucks or not;)

No! I don't have an accent. But, if you PM me your number, you can tell me what you think. I just recorded my voice for my poem Taste Me....it is interesting to say the least.
