undercover_lover Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Do you like accents? If so, what is your favorite? What do you find attractive about it? Masculinity, honesty, romanticism, innocence, or maybe just the fact that its foreign? I can't help but love the romantic nature of a French accent. I'm curious as to what may draw others to a person with an accent. Link to post Share on other sites
miss_jaclynrae Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I have never been one for accents, but being with an amazing man who also happens to speak fluent french... it is pretty amazing. It isn't so much sexy as it is fun. I love our little lessons and hearing him yell out "merde!" while in the kitchen. Now, he is american and speaks english, but due to his fluency and schooling, he loves to spout out tidbits here and there in french. I am so lucky. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I can't put my finger on why, but French is my favorite. It sounds so... Sincere and romantic. I think I'll study that next semester! Link to post Share on other sites

acrosstheuniverse Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I love most accents, other than a few accents that are specific to different regions of the UK (Brummie is a particularly disliked one, and Scouse )... if a guy has an accent different to mine I'll probably love it! I like Russian, Polish accents and find them far sexier than the traditionally loved French, Italian etc. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
salparadise Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I like some accents a lot, others not so much. I had a therapist who was born in Serbia and she spoke fluent English with the Eastern European accent. Really nice and sexy––and she was smokin hot too. I would have a hard time tolerating some of the English accents. I can't do New Jersey or Southeastern Redneck at all. Michigan and Wisconsin are barely tolerable. But much more important than accent is just that a person be articulate and able to use language well. I dated a woman for awhile who was raised in California and whose mother was a speech therapist. She had no discernible accent, a huge vocabulary, perfect enunciation and intonation... and on top of of that, she always knew the right thing to say and how to articulate thoughts with subtlety, nuance and understatement. She spoiled me. I can only hope for someone half as good, and I can no longer deal with women who hack the language, swear (except in certain contexts) and latch onto every slang word they hear. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
RiceaRoni Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I love accents it just adds even more character on a guy, for me. I especially adore French and German accents. I remember when my cousin's cousins came from Germany (not related to them), and their son had such a accent that it really was a turn on LOL. French seems romantic and sweet, and I also find Irish and of course British accents lovely. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
