Irish. A million times Irish. Doesn't matter what the bloke looks like or thinks like, if he's talking Irish then I'm listening.

Britain has no "accent".

Every country has multitudes of accents, there is no single accent.
I'm not picky, anything British sounds awesome. Or Australian which sounds similar to me, I don't have an ear for that kind of subtle difference.

I like either a slight English accent but if its too heavy its a super turn off

or an American Southern Accent, those make me go crazy

I was referring to English. I think, is that the one that you hear in all the movies and hear all the famous people talk with? The one that people typically fake when they want to poke fun of British people. At least I think that's what I was referring to.

Seriously though, how weird is it to get quoted on something you said over two years ago? o_O

That's not a criticism towards you or anything, you didn't resurrect the thread, hell, maybe you didn't even notice how old it was. But it's just strange in a way. Here's this trivial statement I made two years ago on a trivial topic without really having thought it through. I probably forgot about it the very next minute, and I know for sure I've changed my mind on the topic at least once since then. Yet there it is, just as much of a statement now as it was back then, and two years later someone has something to say about it. Which is all fine I guess, I mean, why not? It's just so unusual to see things work that way, It feels kind of bizarre o_O

Pretty much everything except the American accents and the French accents. I'm kind of a whore when it comes to foreign women. Their accents turns me into a babbling idiot.

btw just checked the thread creation date... Necro much

A good northern english/scottish accent is beautiful! Maybe that's slightly weird, but I don't care.

hmm youd have to be more specific...I think there is some variation on accents in different regions

also I notice that older shows..like 70's/80's the accents sound different..thicker almost

Scottish or Irish, definitely.

It's funny that I say that now, considering I never really used to care about accents. Still, things change~ :3

Accents with soft sounds are much more appealing, personally, than guttural ones, like German.
But I think it differs across gender; certain accents sound slimy on men whilst nice on women, and vice versa.

Does anyone find their own accent sexy, or is it always just other accents?

Go PurpleLemur! I have a lecturer at Uni who has a slight Irish accent and it's sexay
I don't think people would really find their own accent sexy. I mean, they'd be completely desensitized to it.

Hence why as a British guy, I'm moving to America!

So, am I the only one who finds the French accent to be the most unattractive thing ever? Anyways, I'd probabaly have to go for either German, Russian, Mexican or Australian. I also find Canadian accents attractive-ish,

Eh, I think you'll be changing your mind about that once you hear the... thing that is the Essex accent.

As an Englishman I'm quite happy with those poll results :p
Although they may be largely talking about women with that accent, I'll still take it. Also I'm from a horrible little northern town so my accent is terrible to the rest of the English >.>

French accents on super attractive model like girls... HNNG. Sometimes russian is nice too if it's not all deep and sounds like they could dominate me :(

It depends on the person. Sometimes an accent can be incredibly attractive in one person, and incredibly unattractive in another. For example a southern accent to me is usually way on one end or the other. On some girls its perfect, on others its nails on chalkboard. Though if I had to pick I guess I'd go with Irish or English, but there are many others I like as well.
