UK Men Are A Different Breed

[Gingersnapqueen]

You're gonna have to spill on which you don't like now...

Well UK accent isn't a thing, there's hundreds of different dialects, none of which I'm an expert on. I just know there's some that I cannot understand at all hence why I said "most"

As in standoffish/not making a move?

not shy but maybe like asking if it were okay to lay the money on the table - a weird politeness

If politeness is the crime, I feel there could be worse things...

There are a lot of different accents here in the uk that vary considerably, some sound good, some sound weird, some or just hard to understand I personally love the Scottish, Irish and Australian accents

I think the Scottish, Irish and Australian communities would be very quick to say there's no one single accent in each of those countries too...

Ha ha I agree, I think if you venture anywhere from where you live the accents all change

And if you live outside all those areas you don't have a ear as tuned in to the differences.

I find it strange how quick someones accent changes when they move, I have friends that emigrated to Australia and they soon got the Aussie twang, and my sister moved up north in the uk and when I hear her speak now it just sounds so different to growing up

It's the same in the US. When I lived in the south with my dad's relatives, I started "talking southern." I don't think I have any kind of discernable accent now.

To me, it sounds soft, like fine wool. Smooth, like good whiskey. Warm, like a nice fire on a cold night.

I think we all believe we have no accent, but everyone else will think we do

A woman in the grocery store told me she loved my accent. It surprised me.

There are also Scottish accents that sound like a German with a throat infection chain smoking Marlboro Reds

We have similar here...

 

[Japansurfer]

Where were you all when I lived I. America. All I got was super market elder ladies saying ‘what an amazing accent you have - Australia!’ Younger generation I never hit much. Maybe me though

 

[Lilianna23]

Have to confess something. I am an Austrian man who has spent half his life living in the UK.
Whenever I hear a lady/girl/lass with a heavy accent from Liverpool, I get an immediate hard on.
Coleen Rooney --- is my goddess ... clever, great looks, lovely voice and just the right accent for me.

I know a lot of British people would see that very differently ...haha

Austrian men have their charms, also! I had an Austrian boyfriend for a short time.

Would you like to try another one ....?

Check it wasn't Schwarzenegger first. That would be a tough act to follow...
