Inspired by this thread: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/3473658-sexiest-coolest-job-for-a-partner

What is the sexiest/coolest accent for a spouse.

I think the sexiest is French, the cutest is Swiss.

James Nesbitt’s Irish accent - every time

beanaseireann · 12/01/2019 20:08

James Nesbitt has a Northern Irish accent.
NI Mumsnetters might even know what town land it's from Smile

I love a good northern Ireland accent, particularly Antrim. Also partial to a Scottish one.

Husband's
Scottish
Welsh
Irish
North East

My BF has a slow, unruffled Essex-boy accent, i doubt that anyone except me would think it sexy, but i adore it!

My ex-H was Welsh. The accent does nothing for me.

Iamclearlyamug · 12/01/2019 20:12

My partners Turkish and the way he sounds speaking English makes me drool

I love Tom Hiddlestons voice and accent, which i guess is just posh English.
I also like a soft Scottish accent or a nice Welsh accent. Or maybe Australian or south African.

I guess I'm not too picky 😁

Norn Ireland, for sure!
I have three colleagues from NI, and I could listen to them all day... in fact when they're talking to one another I am hypnotised and can't move away from their desks.
Amazing accent.

Tyneside is my second favourite.

Crimson72 · 12/01/2019 20:13

Irish hands down!

NicoleNoPants · 12/01/2019 20:13

Jamie’s Scottish accent in Outlander or a Sheffield one

Seline · 12/01/2019 20:14

Scottish accents are fab.

ginghambox · 12/01/2019 20:15

Lancashire. And Manchester , Liverpool and Burnley are NOT in Lancashire.

My dh has an Italian accent. I only find it sexy when he's talking to other people though!

kalinkafoxtrot45 · 12/01/2019 20:19

I think Russian accents are pretty alluring.

DPs is Welsh. Grin

Thewifipasswordis · 12/01/2019 20:19

A mild salford/manchester accent. Or Sheffield 🙈

LuluMelons · 12/01/2019 20:20

French is the sexist

Boston accent is the coolest

LadyB49 · 12/01/2019 20:20

James Nesbitt is from Broughshane near Coleraine in County Antrim.

This is about 20 miles distant from Ballymena where Liam Neeson is from.

I'm from somewhere in between the two.

LuluMelons · 12/01/2019 20:20

English accents are the biggest turn off, especially London- I'm a Londoner btw and so is DP.

Zoflorabore · 12/01/2019 20:22

Geordie for me :) dp is from Liverpool, same as me.

I also like NI accents but not southern Confused

Eifla · 12/01/2019 20:22

South African.

Grilledaubergines · 12/01/2019 20:22

AIBU to ask what the South African accent sounds like?

I love a Welsh accent.

The sexiest person I’ve ever met is from Toronto so that accent kills me now Blush
