What do you think is the sexiest accent?

I think that the right person can make any accent sound sexy or not. Of course, the immediate thought is French, but almost any European inflection tends to be ear candy.

Women from the UK. All of those various accents (with perhaps a few exceptions). Yooow.


provided they're in my age group of course, or else it'd be creepy.

British accent. Or a young accent. This girl I know has this little kiddy accent and it is hot.

No idea at all. The flow of words doesn't turn me on the least.
There are accents that I hate, and ones that I think are awesome, but none turn me on.

No such thing as a generic Irish accent. Despite a population of only four million or so, we have a massive range of accents between the different parts of the country. A Dublin accent is considerably different to a Cork accent, similar to a London accent (if you can even pin down one London accent as being representative of the city as a whole) is different to a Mancunian accent.

As for the accents I find sexiest, the female Received Pronunciation along with English accented with a slight French accent (again, female) take my recommendations.

I know there's not really a generic accent but I didn't really know how to explain in an other way. I'm also not sure which of the Irish local accents I mean so I used "generic" to say any/all of them unless I don't like it but never heard it before...

You probably mean a Dublin area accent, it's quite pleasant. The same cannot be said for Northern Ireland or Cork

Hahaha!!

And guess who should happen upon this post but someone from Cork....

Shame my friend from Derry is away so he can't help me formulate the rest of the post.

I have to say the Dublin accent can be quite pleasant once it's not as in your face as a North side accent, or as pathetically effete like the general D4 accent.

As for the Cork accent, it has its rough edges, but it's also unique sounding in comparison to the rest of the island.
Comes from being a city exposed to many different cultures through trade over the centuries.
Also far, far less Anglicised than the posher Dublin variants, although I am noticing a horrendous surge in a D4 style accent growing from the city's south side lately.

I seem to have caused quite a stir with that post, more than a few people have commented on it.....

Let me clear it up, I'm from Belfast and I hate my accent but it's funny you should mention you have a friend from Derry, it's another accent that kills me (when it's strong).

I don't really know why I don't like the Cork accent, in a way it's similar to Ballynahinch and it doesn't bother me at all.

You do have to admit though, when you get Americans going on about the Irish accent, they're talking about the gentle Dublin accent that they hear on the TV. My friend from Belfast went over there to College and for the first month they thought he was Scottish......

Heh, the Derry accent is an acquired taste certainly.

I have to admit, I don't actually have a friend from Derry, it was purely meant to rattle your cage! lol
not that I'd be against making friends from any part of the North.

heh, we're Irish, man. We get in a stir about most things :p

And also, I'm from Cork.. any slight against Cork is second only to firebombing an orphanage to us here :p

Perhaps you encountered some unpleasant types or the rather hideous North-side variant of it?
In my experience

Oh, and don't get me started on Americans and the accent.... My last girlfriend was American, so how do you think I caught her attention? ;)

Thankfully, though, she's far from the stereotypical American so didn't wreck my head with awful tourist industry.
You're dead right, though. That weak ass Dublin accent is sadly the projected image (or should that be sound file?) of the diverse and multi-layered quilt of accents all over the island.
Your poor mate, though!
A friend of mine recently moved to London and he had to produce his passport to prove he wasn't American to French students he met... then again, he's got a very soft Irish accent.

I personally find speaking to people from Northern Ireland to be initially terrifying as some people speak with a higher volume and pitch than we do in the south :p
Not that it's that important at the end of the day.

Anyway, give the Cork accent another shot and if you ever find yourself in the vicinity, PM me!

Hope I didn't come on too strong :p
