An accent can be a very attractive quality to some people. Whats your favourite accent? My personal favourite would be either the Scottish or the southern states in America. Also have you ever dated anyone just based on their accent? A lot of cities in every country tend to have accents that differ so you may have to be specific.

Voices already have a musical quality.
And the difference in accents can either enhance it, or not.
I like something different from my own. As much as I like a good voice, something with a hint of otherness to it is somehow intruiging.
Though I've never dated anyone with an accent.

You have African as a choice??? That's like having European accent as a choice. Africa is a massive continent with many different people all with very different accents. You need to travel more buddy.

The British and English accent are the same, unless of course you meant the Scottish and Welsh, well they are two completely different accents altogether.

Take a Brummie fro Dudley, a Scouser and a sarf Londoner and put them in a room together; comunication might be difficult.

Accents vary hugely in England, just as they do in the USA. Brooklyn is like Weegie - it can be incomprehensible.

Well I dont have a London accent even though I have lived here for years, but you would definately know I am not a scouser or from Norfolk, or in ooh aah country land.rolling on the floor laughing
