I have more of a problem with dialects than accents.

My step brother is originally from Liverpool and now lives in Kent, and has done for the past ~5 years. He has a bit of a mixture in accents now, but you can quite clearly hear he is a Liverpudlian... I think his accent is awesome though!

Yes, as much an accent being attractive and nice to me, it works both ways so there are some I find I can't stand having in a partner.

Couldn't be with a woman with the following accents:

Geordie
Brum
Scouse
Essex
Cockney
Texan

Doesnt really bother me... As long as they're not scouse

I'm pretty accepting of most accents but I don't think I could live with Welsh or Geordie. The latest love interest has a North Yorkshire accents which I'm still getting used to but it has not put me off.

Eastern European struggling to speak broken english does it for me, especially a ruskie.

Lakeland · 27 Jun 2010 at 21:07

no scouse or brummy, anything else though

A Scottish accent of any kind is a big no-no for me, about the only one. I especially like soft German/English and Canadian accents though.

If I hated the Irish (specifically Dublin) accent, then I would have made a very poor choice

Luckily I find it very endearing and cute on a lady, even if they do pronounce things wrong

(Lets not go there)

I dated a scouse girl for a bit once and really had to call it off, her accent was horrible

JCBeastie · 27 Jun 2010 at 23:50

American, Canadian, Australian or French are turn offs for me!

I'm just racist like that.

I don’t care about accents, its slang what puts me off.
And people need to realise that the Brummy accent and the Black Country accent are not the same.

mcompute · 27 Jun 2010 at 23:50

Yes, especially if they're from liverpool.

Scouse. that accent goes right through me

As soon as I hear a scouse accent I instantly don't like that person and it takes me a lot of effort to get past it. Almost every bad experience with people in my life has involved scousers...

That's pretty harsh.... as has been said already in this thread there are many many versions of the scouse accent. I'm from Liverpool but my accent is very soft and people often don't pick it up straight away :/

For me, I can't stand ridiculously posh southern accent. Love northern accents, especially leeds/geordie or soft accents with a northern twang, mmmm

P.s. I think it's too funny the amount of fussyness in this thread. Pretty sure half of you don't particularly have your pick of women

jahujames · 28 Jun 2010 at 00:48

Anybody with the Brummie accent I pretty much hate... And Scouse. God no.
