10 Sexy International Accents

Andrea Coventry
Though women are accused of only wanting to hear themselves speak, they can't help but melt when a foreign man comes their way touting a sexy international accent. He doesn't even need to be that physically attractive, as long as the words rolling off his tongue make her melt like butter.

Italian

Italian is often considered to be the most romantic of the romantic languages, and the most romantic of countries. Even when they are speaking in English, they maintain that sing-song intonation that can carry anyone away on the seas of love.

Spanish

Couple the Spanish accent with the stereotypical dark and handsome man, and you have a sexy international accent destined to cause women to swoon. Think Antonio Banderas. There is also something about someone yelling or commanding with a Spanish accent that causes one to stand at attention.

Portuguese

Portuguese is Spanish's cousin. Think of it as Spanish with a bit of a twang. Nevertheless, it has been known to make many weak in the knees.

Romanian

The romance languages, of course, were among the most popular. Least recognized of the five is Romanian, yet some find it to yield an incredibly sexy international accent.

Russian

Many find the Russian accent to be highly sexy. These are the people who like a loud, domineering tone in others. It can also elicit thoughts of royalty, and experimenting to find new ways to stay warm in that frigid expanse of land.

German

The dominatrix-lover likes to be told what to do in German, though most seem to prefer the softer Marlene Dietrich style as opposed to a Hitler-esque bark.

British English

Coming back to the native tongue, English always sounds better when spoken by a non-American. The sexy British accent has a range from Cary Grant to Prince Charles, with something for everyone in between.

Scottish English

Scotsmen tend to sound regal and authoritative. Sean Connery and Ewan McGregor often sound like they are rolling marbles in his mouth, but some could listen to them talk all day long.

Irish English

Irish speakers sound almost identical to Scottish speakers. The best trained ears can tell the difference between the two. The rest don't care.

Australian English

Topping the list of sexy international accents is the Australian accent. Listening to Hugh Jackman or Russell Crowe makes anyone want to get lost in the outback with him.

From wherever he hails, the man with the sexy international accent is guaranteed attention and affection whenever he speaks.
