Sexiest Accent

[MrScorpio]

Poll question: Sexiest Accent

Pick your fave

[Deja Q]

1. What, no Welsh or Cockney?

:D

[MrScorpio]

2. English=Cockney

Any variation thereof

Welsh? Oh well

[RoyGBiv]

10. Ahhhhh!!!!

NONONONOONONONONONONONO ....

A Cockney accent is to the English accent as the Southern accent is to the "American" accent.

Sheesh. Get your verbal hormones in order. :-)

[MrScorpio]

30. There's also Manchester, Liverpool and others

The point is to be inclusive of English

The same applies to other languages on the list with many dialects

American can be Southern or Valley Girl

Don't be so picky!

[SmokingJacket]

57. Welsh = Richard Burton.

Now there's a sexy accent.

[giant_robot]

3. I'm embarrased to say that a sexy Russian woman...

...could momentarily shake my devotion to my gf. I wouldn't cheat or anything, but I might buy the Russian babe a drink just to hear her talk for a while.

[RoyGBiv]

4. I voted Russian, but ...

I didn't really mean it. It's a particular variety of Russian accent common in western Russia that I find particularly sexy. Like the US, Russians have a lot of accents.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

5. Eva Gabor

[MrScorpio]

6. I might put Hungarian in a part two

Yumsters!

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

13. wasn't she

[MrScorpio]

23. Hungarian women are delicious

Even today

[Seabiscuit]

7. Aw, come on....... there's only *ONE* "sexy" accent: FRENCH!

[MrScorpio]

8. They are all sexy

These are my faves

[Seabiscuit]

15. Well, at least my post seems to have inspired 2 more votes for "French"

After all, "matters of taste should not be disputed" - anon.

[progmom]

9. gotta go with brazilian

mmmmmmmmmmm

[MrScorpio]

20. There's a good reason why it's on top

Flora Purim, Astrud Gilberto, Rosalia De Souza, Nina Miranda and Anna Caram

There's more where that came from

[Heidi]

11. I'm hurt.

No one has ever said my lower-midwestern Murkin accent is sexy when it creeps into my German and Italian. :cry:

[MrScorpio]

27. I got cha, baby

:hug:

[norml]

12. The Brooklyn accent is sexiest to me.

[mcctatas]

14. When I was in Ireland last year...

a man could have read me passages from Slander (by that bitch anne coulter), and I still would have been all twitterpated!:blush:

[RoyGBiv]

18. Ha!

I love the word "twitterpated." :-)

[Ellen Forradalom]

16. Chicawgo

:-)

[Zuni]

17. since I am ethnically Russian/cossack

[sniffa]

http://home.earthlink.net/~lnkn/retarded.wav

[MrScorpio]

[bicentennial_baby]

[sniffa]

24. yay

[bicentennial_baby]

25. it's wicked hot!

i loooove talking to you, baby

[IChing]

26. The accent of the sincerity of things to come

In our fantasies

All languages can sound crass or sexy
German is a great one
American is another
Spanish if it's nasal no, but if its throaty yes

so really it's the language of the senses and not the place of origin.

[Sapphocrat]

28. What, NO AUSTRALIAN?! n/t

[MrScorpio]

31. There's a few that I skipped for the first poll

It'll be on the second

[New Earth]

32. i just HAVE to say Irish

because uh, well Ronan from VNV's accent is Irish and I am so much attracted to his voice, obviously :)

[BamaGirl]

33. Irish

My husband is Irish, so I have to go with it lol. ;)

[Seabiscuit]

34. What, no Spanish???

And frankly, Dutch is much harder on the ears than German.

[gizmo1979]

35. Austrailian

could listen to her talk all day long!

[MrScorpio]

36. Here you go

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=3664120&mesg_id=3664120

[gizmo1979]

48. hey I'm not the only one!

[Clintmax]

45. I vote for Australian too!

Love those accents!

[katinmn]

37. Swedish

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

38. Irish, Italian, and Spanish

rawr.

[pink-o]

39. che malo!

No one picked Italian?

I don't have one drop of Italian blood (my family is Askenazi Jewish..ala Fiddler on the Roof...a little further north than the Med!) but io amo the country! And the men are so gorgeous, they don't even have to open their mouths, but when they do....aah. Che bello!

[gollygee]

40. Australian

so "Other"

[gollygee]

41. Found it on the other poll :D

[nytemare]

42. I love accents!

A deep American southern drawl where it they make a one syllable word 10 is one of only a couple I don't like.

I suppose it would depend upon the person speaking it. German accents can be nice, too.

My favorites, though, are the British Isles. English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish.

Most French accents are wonderful!

[WMliberal]

43. dutch? wtf?

I'll pick anything but Jersey or Northern Great Plains (dontcha knowit).

[RetroLounge]

44. "Hello Dollink"

Biography: Natasha was a former Miss Transylvania. She is believed to be the love child of Axis Sally and Count Dracula, although nothing has been proven (blood work, yum). When she moved to the "New World" at age 19, she had a part time modeling job with Charles Addams and another popping out of cakes at stag parties. Although Boris has asked for her hand many times, she refuses to part with it. "Its my hand dollink, he can get his own," said Ms. Fatale

[6th Borough]

46. What, no Jewishitalian? AKA Queens, NY?

I feel left out ;(

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

47. There's something about an attractive girl with an English accent

I think French and Russian accents are incredibly sexy.

But when I hear a cute girl speaking in an English accent, especially a well-educated person, it just sends me. The English accent would tend to make the speaker (to my ear at least) seem prim-and-proper, brainy, and distant, the very opposite of overt sexuality. There must be something wrong with me to find this combination stimulating. Or maybe it's because I was in love with Haley Mills when I was a child.

[XemaSab]

49. South African

or Australian.

[gmoney]

50. Liz Hurley

Not sure why she was not listed as her own category, but damn!

[terrya]

51. Canadian

Eh?

[cheeseit]

52. French and American n/t

[supernova]

53. English and Scottish run neck and neck with me

but lately, I'm digging the Belgian accent. :D

[Lautremont]

54. Icelandic has got to be it.

All the sexiest elements of UK and Scandinavian accents mixed together; and the fact that the utterers of these particular accents are invariably knockouts doesn't hurt either.

[redqueen]

55. German!

Scottish is a close second, though.

[enigmatic]

56. Salma Hayek's!

Yowza..

[bigwillq]

58. Spanish (nt)

[kitkatrose]

59. Spanish accents are the best.

But Italian and Brazilian, hell all of those rule. :loveya:

[Swamp Rat]

60. Português Brasileiro

:D

[Bridget Burke]

62. And the Brazilian men are pretty fine, too.

An Irish accent can be quite charming--but the current word is "sexy."
