Which are 3 of your favorite accents for males and females and three of your least favorites for each, not based on the country but how they generally sound to you. I dunno about y'all but I won't get offended if someone names mine as their least favorite, but I'm just curious (and bored lol) so I don't mean this to be inflamitory or it would be in GB. Remember, not bashing countries:

Male Favorites:
Scottish
English
Australian

Female Favorites:
Japanese
Irish
Chinese

Male Least Favorites:
German
Russian
Italian

Female Least Favorites
Dutch
German
Spanish

What about y'all?

I haven't met many people with different accents. I do have a friend whose family is Greek, and she has an accent which I really like, but it may just be because she happens to be really good looking and I had a crush on her at one point :rolleyes:

Another accent I really dislike is the southern accent. Everytime I hear a southern girl talk I think of wheat, moonshine, and hickory.

We do, and it sucks. when I talk to someone with a foreign accent I realize how barbaric I sound. Our vowels are really...sour.

Hey, could be worse. It could be a CAnadian accent, eh?

It's funny how we got a lot of people who arn't fond of spanish accents. For me personally, as long as I can understand them, it's really not that bad.

Actually, my favorite accent is the deaf accent. Mmmm, tone deaf..... My friend is actually turned on by a Down Syndrome accent. Okay those are more like speech impediments, but you could look at it as an accent.

Americans have accents but its related to where they are from in america. Lilith said I had some kind of accent, but I don't think so.

Anyways, chicks with accents can be sexy. It really doesn't matter though what so long as it's not something annoying and sounds cute.

Japanese chicks "can" sound quite nice. Ofcourse with anything it's not always true about them all.

Lol, everyone hates Spanish. I'm not a big fan of romance languages either, even Italian, which I should be learning sometime.

I agree. I think it's because there just is too many people in this country that have the spanish accent that it spoils it.

But I'm sure there are still some that enjoy it.

The white trash southern accent is horrible, but I rather like the upper class, more proper southern accent.

Theres only one accent I hate and its a french accent. But maybe thats because I grew up in Quebec and I've been around it all my life. I don't mind any other accent, but granted I haven't heard many of them.

People who have really heavy Irish accents are annoying as hell. Trying to understand what they say is next to impossible.

Gee. You'd love my job then. I get lots of accents over the phone that you almost need an interpretor for. Mostly Indian, but all kinds.
