    Northie accents on women. I like Belfast accents: not the really mad "I'll knack yer ballix in" ones or middle-class ones - just the standard one, based on one or two women I've known from there.

    Yer wan Michelle Doherty has a sexy as fook accent.

    You can be having the most genial conversation with a Belfast lad and it still feels like he's starting on you.

    There's more than one Aussie accent. Julia Gillard's is like a cheese grater. Her accent is awful too. :D

    The Dublin (apart from the fake D4 one) & Cork accents do it for me.

    Yes the nice female mid american accent is easy on the ear. Regional US accents are OK too if they omit the Ahmmm, Like, No you di'int, You go girl, Oh snap, kin, kinfolk, gittin it, Pa where's ma neckercheif, Fer Sure..... the list goes on I'm afraid

    Ah to be fair it might be one of those "it's not you, it's me" things.

    My first experience with a large crowd of Nordies was at a Tiesto gig back in 2007. Hardly the best representation of our Ulster friends to begin with, but the real problem was that I’d taken a sizeable dose of the worst drug known to man, BZP. Anyone with experience of this satanic molecule will know it’s pretty conducive to paranoia even in comfortable situations, but in a huge, dark room full of Belfast’s finest, tops off and cawing in the harshest accent known to man….

    let’s just say there are emotional scars that have yet to fully heal. I’ve had great banter with some lovely nordies since, but I’ll be in my thirties before I’m completely over it.

    Hearing a girl from Belfast say "Ach, you're a wee darlin'" or "A wee pet" is like music to my ears


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,132 ✭✭✭Killer Pigeon


    One of those deep sexually repressed Monaghan-Cavan accents.

    Same as myself, quite like some American accents, but then some make you want to scream and puke all at the same time. Canadian and American accents are nice to listen to sometimes.

    Ha ha alright! Bad experience association maybe? I just think it can be a beautiful accent. Maybe I just haven't heard the scummy version?? I guess it'd be the difference between the northside and southside accent in Cork.

    Also love the Russian accent on a girl.

    A well spoken Dub - not D4 marbles, mind - is really sexy. :)

    Dutch.

    I don't know why, I love a Dutch accent, both in German and in English. As long as they don't start to speak actual Dutch, cause that absolutely kills it for me.

    Wickus from District 9 has the funniest accent ever! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,163 ✭✭✭yeppydeppy


    I generally dislike the Limerick accent but I met this girl the other night and she had an accent similar to Dolores O'Riordan and it was sexy as hell!
    Definitely not the Aussie accent - it's way to whingy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 690 ✭✭✭Lorrs33


    I love the Welsh accent :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,752 ✭✭✭pablomakaveli


    Female English accents bar Liverpool and Newcastle are nice.

    Australian accents and French can be pretty sexy as well.

    Some Eastern european girls i know sound nice as well but it varies.
