Simple question really: in your dream girl/boy (and to be politically correct the title can also read "same sex") what accent would you choose?

Personally, I can't stand the northern English accent ([it's rate funneh int'it] Manchester/Leeds is bad enough, it gets worse the further up you get). Can't stand Scottish accent. Don't mind Welsh or Irish. I'm quite partial to the London accent ("Rimmel Larrndon. Get the Larrrndon look."). Actually don't mind the scouser accent but... well I wouldn't choose it in my dream lady.

I find the American accent very up and down. I can't speak about specific regions but while I find Scarlett Johansson's voice really sexy, generally I find the American accent somewhat irritating. Of course, not living in USA I'm not clued up on the different types, I'm just going on TV shows and stuff for this. Girlie, girlie voices sound worse in the American accent than any other in my opinion, although to be fair they sound bad enough on English accents.

I'm not a fan of any of the mainland European accents to be honest, although I do think Russians and Eastern Europeans have quite a pretty voice when they're speaking English. Let's not mention the German accent. ;)

But, to conclude, my personal favourite, and dream girl, would have an Australian accent. Gah, the Australian accent gets me horny like no other. Mmmmm....

So how about you guys?

From the British isles, I love the irish accent but the rest do nothing in particular. In general, I love girls who speak with a strong German or just general east european/Russian inflection on their words. For guys, I can't think of anything in particular, but definitely not a british accent.

When considering  the whole package of a girl, her accent actually means very little to me.

I generally perfer pretty eyes than a pretty voice.  Of course, if she sounded like a slaggering old smoker with a voice deeper than mine.. then I may have to rethink the whole thing entirely.

I'm 100% deadly serious man. First thing I notice in the opposite sex are hair, eyes and vocal tones!

A husky voice can be very sexy on the right girl.
I'm definitely attracted more to the British southern accent above anything else, though that is probably because I live down in Sussex.

I concur. I mean, you have to hear this voice like all the time, so you'd better make sure it's a nice one.

Definitely hispanic accents. Though that should be expected since I like latin women. Just as long as it's not so heavy that I have a hard time understanding them.

Some American girl I play with (ooh er) says that she finds my voice 'dreamy' and that I could be reading the phone book and she'd find it interesting.

As long as it's not high-pitched, or extremely deep it doesn't really matter to me.

I can't speak for all Americans, but I find that British accents can be very cool/sexy.  The only accent I really can't stand is that of Southerners (In U.S.) from states like Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, Texas, etc.

I really like the french accent, with their rrrrr, you know? I've also met a Russian girl who had the sexiest accent in the world.

But as far as voices goes, the only thing that would keep me away from someone is pitch, specially if it's too high. I don't think an accent would be a turn off to me.
