As long as an accent isn't the most important quality you're looking for in a date, then why not? Personally, I find good character is worth more than a dozen accents, no matter how "cute."

Parakeet, I agree. You must have character as well as compatability. Talk is cheap.

Wouldn't it be easier to find a good man with ANY kind of accent and then travel? To Ireland and Portugal. I love their accents:)

What was that comedy show where the guy with the british accent calls the hardware store looking for tubes of black "CAULK"?

Come to New Jersey!!! We have everyone!

Even just being around other accents is nice. Of course it's only an accent because we're here in the states.

I know what you mean, though. For some reason, Australian has always been an ear-catcher for me.

I don't think it's silly. I think accents are so sexy.

Couldn't agree with you more! I heart english accents. English and Scottish probably my favorite , followed by maybe Spanish--Castilian.

Well, perhaps if you can't travel overseas easily one will just happen to travel YOUR way. I mean, you live in California, that's a pretty big destination I think. Not like where I live...

I don't think it's silly at all and uhm *nudge nudge*....looky here I think I spot some posters waving a the Union Jack on this very forum....perhaps...

perhaps you don't even have to travel (at first) to meet someone :)

Not silly at all. I love to hear accents in talking.

I have heard 'Texan' - which a cute lil' gal was speaking - Austin area.

I have heard Australian... which is not only accent, but a unique language.

I have heard English... several...

I have heard Canadian.

I have a weakness though... when around anyone with an accent for any length of time... I tend to pick up their accent (or a poor rendition of it), and start speaking with a similar accent.

Me? I'm from Texas... but do not have an accent. Go figure. But - I can do impersonations... *wide grin* wanna hear John Wayne? "Well... get the wagons in a circle!"

I dated a man from London. At first I had a bit of trouble understanding him. Words like sweetheart and brilliant

It was so smooth and sexy.

So now I am back to listening to the southern men from my area. hey DARLIN!!! HEY HUNNNN......

I miss more than that British accent!!!
