Do accents make people more attractive? email this discussion to a friend?

I was talking to someone tonight who thinks he'd never meet women based on his looks alone, which I totally disagree with. He says its his accent that pulls the chicks in and he takes full advantage of it. What do you think? Are you more attracted to a person with an accent? Or totally turned off by certain inflections? What is the hottest accent to hear?


I'll take some!

Oh yeah it sure does. I love those british and Australian accents. They are so beautiful. When they start talking, all I could hear in my head is twinkling music.

Wow, Twinkling music? I could use some of that!

I think that hearing an accent can maybe attract your attention in the first instance; but there are many other factors that will ultimately determine if the person is attractive or not! Given that I travel a lot for work and have been based overseas in multiple countries for a few years now; I pretty much get to hear every accent imaginable! Some are better than others and I basically appreciate any accent that is well spoken really. In terms of most interesting accents though; I find Singaporean English to have a very unique accent! Same with South African. They are both very distinct and in my opinion immediately recognisable. I am an Australian and British citizen with an Aussie Father and a British Mother. Although I feel that my accent is more Australian (spent 30 years of my life in Australia); most people funnily enough initially think I am British?? I admit my accent is not anywhere near as strong as most Australians though.

Yes, there are definately other factors.

Most of the time, since I could speak four languages I play with my accent most of the time and I can't determine if people find it attractive. Maybe for me I just use the proper accent for the proper language that I'm using.

Lol, I have to admit to loving my partners Canadian accent. We actually got together before I heard his voice (we met online), and so when I heard his accent over the phone for the first time, I literally swooned lol! lol

As for the hottest accents, I'd have to say either Canadian or Scottish. Scots I cannot understand a word they're saying, but I love their accent all the same, and Canadian, cuz well, I'm just biased lol.

LOL! You are totally biased, and that's totally ok!:)

Some accents are quite attractive I think, while others absolutely turn me off. If guys are from bergen, Norway, I really do not feel like getiing to know hem well, but if they are from Stavanger I am instantly more attracted to them. I know that a persons accent does not matte at all when judging if thay'd make a good partner but it is still part of the first impression they make on me. A guy from Bergen will have to work harder to make me want to take an intrest in him. Not good, I know, but that is how I feel. Extremely unfair


myLot reputation of 91/100. Katesmama (3222)   ranked 1 out of 245 in katesmama!  1 year ago

I know nothing about Norway, but I can relate. Its the same for me with men from certain areas of this country.

accent basically enhances your personality, it adds a charm to you. and definately it attracts people towards you. personally, for mee accent is very important. i get totally pissed off with the accent my friends or the near and dear ones speak. i am very particular about the accent of the people whom i talk to.

people that have this accent different from the ordinary crowd makes them interesting and so i guess that what makes them far attractive, i have a friend who loves foreign people because of their accent and she try to mimic it.

but for me accent alone is not a basis for a person to be considered attractive. personality is still the most important factor that makes me attracted to a certain person.


myLot reputation of 91/100. Katesmama (3222)   ranked 1 out of 245 in katesmama!  1 year ago

I agree, DJ.

It's not so much about a man with an accent that attracts me, it is more the tone of voice and choice of words, but certain accents can have the opposite affect, I must say.
I don't think that looks alone can attract me either, but charming personality certainly can.

You have an excellent point there!

In my case, I do find it attractive if a guy has a nice accent. I like guys with British accents. I think a lot of girls feel the same way.=)

I think you're right.
