Just that really.

I like a Scottish or an Irish accent on a man!

My Doctor is from South Africa he has a deep voice with his accent very nice.

Bolton, and Dutch.

BritWifeInUSA · 04/07/2021 00:11

Northern Ireland.

My husband was born and raised in Southern California. I love the way he talks. I always tell him he has a voice for radio.

Can’t stand a Boston accent.

CatWithARabbit · 04/07/2021 00:12

Northern Irish for sure

Rookie93 · 04/07/2021 00:13

Geordie does it for me Wink

I bet nobody is coming here to say Birmingham…!
I can't in all honesty say it's sexy, but it is a warm accent. I always feel relaxed when a stranger starts speaking and a Brummie or Black Country accent (yes, I know they're different!) comes out.
ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 04/07/2021 00:15

Accents? meh

Deep voices?

EnglishGirlApproximately · 04/07/2021 00:15

@classica I think that's why I like it. It sounds arrogant and bossy BlushGrin

Scot🤤

MrsOrMiss · 04/07/2021 00:18

French, Southern Irish, Scottish, Cajun ooooo beyond sexy.

My DH is a Geordie, not a sexy accent at all to my ears.

That Scouse drawl - John Lennon for example. The best.

Can’t believe people are saying Yorkshire 🙈 That’s a total turn off for me!

Love an Irish accent on men. He could literally look like a jacket potato and I’d melt if he cracked out an Irish accent.

French accents I don’t find sexy but they just sound beautiful. My gran was French and I loved listening to her on the phone to her sister chatting away in French. I find it soothing to listen to.

My DP is from NI he gets lots of compliments on his accent living in the Republic, he loves it. Eejit.
I don't notice it.

The foreigns like it, apparently. Makes you wonder if the stereotypically sexy accents to English-speaking ears sound less appealing to the natives if it's from...

...Lyon, or Verona.

Alviona · 04/07/2021 00:28

Deep voice with a posh Southern English accent...

TSSDNCOP · 04/07/2021 00:30

Indie school British. I listen to my DS and his friends chat and they're just so confident and articulate even when talking about utter shite.

OuiOuiKitty · 04/07/2021 00:31

I can't believe so many people Re saying Northern Irish.

I'm Irish so Irish accents are the norm for me and don't do anything for me. Italian I think would win out, I'm quite partial to a Welsh accent too.

RedLemon · 04/07/2021 00:37

I’m from West of Ireland and I vote Scottish. I remember a poster on a similar thread once saying her Scottish DH used to say “Ach lass” on occasion and it made her weak at the knees. I loved that.

I have to say, though, when my DH occasionally says “yes, wife?” in his
lovely deep (Irish) voice in response to my calling his name, I have a little inward swoon for myself. He’s a big strong oak of a man too which definitely helps.

Willyoujustbequiet · 04/07/2021 00:40

Geordie is very sexy and Scottish in general but particularly Glaswegian .

UnderperformingSeal · 04/07/2021 00:44

It's less about the accent for me and more about what someone says and the way they say it. Eloquence and wit is sexy in just about any accent, but it would take some raconteur to make Stoke-on-Trent's sound attractive.

Sorry Stokies, you've all been nice people so far, but, that accent...
