What makes an accent Sexy?

Is it because it makes a girl sound different and exotic? Then why is the "Girl-Next-Door" also fetishized?

I don't know, but what I do know is accents can really turn me on.
Southern accents, like Ginger Lee's Tennessee lilt ...SCHWINNG!!

Aussie Accents like Anabel or Jamie from the golden age of Abby Winters. ...SCHWINNG Again.

Kiwi Accents like Nicole Kidman or Naomi Watts.... I'm in Heaven, Mate.

A proper British Accent on a smart girl in glasses? Uh, Oh, Spaghettios!

A Scots Brogue on a Bonnie Lass naked on the Heath? Hoot, Mon!

I could go on....

But, conversely, is there an accent that can immediately wilt my willie?
Sure. Any girl with a Mid-west accent has to be really cute to keep my attention. And I don't think I could ever go "Dan The Ocean, Hon" with a Baltimoron.

Discuss, my Brethren and Cistern.

Funny you mention that - I'm a transplanted Baltimoron (not by choice) and I hate how they talk here.

To answer your question, I think most people find an accent that isn't indigenous to where they live to be, at least, interesting. When it comes from another country, it comes under a heading that might be called "exotic" which, by definition, makes it strikingly different - and a break from the run-of-the-mill language you hear every day.

I'm a sucker for a Southern accent. Having grown up in the South, I miss the girls there. I've been "up here" for way too long...

For some reason a British accent in porn makes me wilt. I have to turn it off.

I dunno about others but i like Jodie Foster 's accent. Imho, she has normal looks but her accent just gets to me.

I have met a few Aussie girls, and their accents have me at attention ready to go!

texan and aussie accents gain my attention quite well

yeah i love a soft southern accent so hot

Not that it turns me on, but I keep making my buddies wife say Coffee. I'm from the midwest and they live in Jersey. I crack the hell up from that.

now i'm living in NYC but southern accent so hot and turns me on

I'd have to say - a Holly Hunter type accent. Any time I hear it, I wanna fuck the girl in the ear!

Different accents, different reasons for why they are attractive. Exotic accents mean that they are likely from far away and would provide good variation and new genes to your potential chi1dr3n, so this makes them powerfully attractive biologically.

As for the Girl-Next-Door, that is more of a young-and-off-limits type of attractiveness. Biologically speaking younger (to a certain point of course) means greater health and survivability of potential chi1dr3n.

As for the Southern accent...there is no way to say this without offending Southerners everywhere...but despite the fact that it has been shown to NOT be true, there is definitely a perception that the slow drawl is associated with lower intelligence/education. So I assume that unconsciously we like that accent because we think we have a better chance of talking those girls into bed.

Interesting thread. I've got a little wondering about your statement above, though. If I get you right, you state that a southern accent is proven to be no more attractive than any other accent and that it's only perception making us think that a person with a southern accent is more attractive.
Now I ask myself the question: isn't attractiveness solely and exclusively based on perception?
Of course there are objectifiable and measurable signs of beauty (like the distance between the eyes, symmetry of the face), but this doesn't take away that beauty is, generally speaking, personal and only based on perception.
So, basically; how can you say a southern accent may be more attractive by perception, but not by facts. I think perception of beauty is in fact factual beauty.

Well, certainly perception (how our senses interpret reality) is different for everyone and completely dictates our behavior. If you see a single bright light off the ground getting larger at the same time you hear train noises getting louder, you instinctively want to get out of the way, whether it is a train or a funhouse trick.

The perception that has been disproven is that southern accent = less intelligent. But that doesn't mean that many people don't instinctively make that assumption for some reason (people with IQ scores well below average DO typically speak more slowly and eninciate less distinctly).

For example, you put a room temperature red metal plate and a room temperature blue metal plate in front of someone. In and of itself, neither the blue color nor the red color has anything to do with temperature. However, in our brains we associate red with hot and blue with cold, so if told to touch one plate more people would probably touch the blue plate than the red.

Similarly, while accent is not directly related to intelligence, regional accents like the southern drawl are associated with other characteristics. Unconscious forces like attraction often work on unconscious assumptions that rationally may or not be true.

Ok, very clear. I can live with that explanation .

Anyone else hot on eastern European accents ?

a hot Venezuelan girl hmmm
