    Any type of hillbilly accent is disgusting.

    I don't care for Asian accents.

    But I love Welsh/Scottish/English (not the super Cockney accent)/Irish and some western European.

    Melt: Scottish, Irish, Welsh, south-eastern American, south-western American, Spanish.

    Wither in pain: Jersey, NY (NYC, Long Island, Satan Island, etc), Massachusetts, the side of New Hampshire that speaks like Massholes, Minnesota, Wisconsin.

    Tolerate: Cape Cod, Maine, old Vermont, the side of New Hampshire that speaks like Connecticuters.

    That may seem really intolerant, but keep in mind that I'm from Virginia and have a southern twang that could cause a phonetic world of hurt to any number of people.

    I'm English & live in Canada (been here 3 years). I often get complimented on my accent which is always very flattering. England has such a wide range of accents for such a little country!
    I myself like Scottish accents but they too vary greatly across Scotland - I like the softer Scottish accents rather than some of the harsher ones. I'm also a sucker for a sexy sounding Italian or French accent! And of course I love the Canadian accent :smile:

    Knew a couple gals from Israel. . . :) It's one of those "hard to place" type things. It's "exotic" but also not at the same time. Yeah. Pretty cool.

    British accents make me melt!
    Spanish accents are definitely a panty dropper.
    Asian accents are harder to understand, especially in some cultures like Japanese or Chinese are shy, they talk really quiet.
