What do guys think of a girl with a Southern accent?

[Serenity2014]

I’m from Texas and I have always hated my voice my entire life. My accent isn’t too harsh, but it’s definitely noticeable.

I know other women from work and close friends who have Southern accents also and we can all agree that we’re concerned how non-Southern people think of our voices. Especially guys when it comes to dating.

That is southern women's problem. Southern women thinks we ( I am from the Bronx ) think less of you or that you are dumb all that bullshit. Up north we think you are beautiful and cook good and we like your voices. When we move down south, southern women ( prejudge ) us throughing that Yankee stuff in our face. First of all we know nothing about the civil war and we don't actually not interested unless you have some fried chicken , beans and corn bread.
All southern women sound good. Some sound like they are speaking another language but they look good too!
We don't say , honey, darling, etc up North.
We I moved south I thought I was a freaking player because the cashier at the gas station called me honey, coworker's called me honey, I felt good until I learned that was southern thing, dang man and I am a geek too.
Anyway, your voice is fine, southern women smile and it's pretty, y'all grow the biggest natural boobs and butts you ever want to see.
When I moved down south I said, look at all of these natural boobs. The church is like a BUTT FARM dang!
I hope I didn't upset you but, y'all also like me for me.

I originally lived in Michigan and grew up around a southern family. I don't have a southern accent myself and growing up I never realized that a lot of people in my own family have a southern accent. I just figured before moving to Texas a few years ago that the typical southern accent was quite different.

A guy probably won't care or notice unless it's on such an extreme side where someone thinks you're from Louisiana or West Virginia to where you sound like a hill billy.

For what it's worth, I personally love guys and girls with a souther tinge in their voice. Some country singers get me a bit bothered. I know a guy who went crazy for the southern love.

I am from the North and I love the southern accent. y'all make us feel right a home bless your heart... OH wait that last part means we're in trouble but sounds sweet... lol.

I went down South I thought every waitress was hitting on me until they were talking to my girlfriend the same way , I was like "these chics go both ways YE HAHHH"...

Then I called a woman up here "Darling" and almost got an assault charge. Like it was a terroristic threat.

Keep your accent Sweety it goes good with the word you choose.

Whats wrong with a southern accent? I mean I suppose if its a "low brow" southern accent that may bother some people (couldn't imagine who), but honestly I don't see an issue. In fact I like southern accents (southern gentlemen and southern bells, when you hear that you think of a classy southerner, I don't see any negative connations with that). So like with everything, its not the accent its how you speak in general that would have an impact. In fact I think it can be quite charming (I love accents though, they just add to the persons character).

I love this question! I was born and raised in the Midwest (northern Illinois) and moved south after graduating college (NC 8 years, TX 17 and counting) I guess I didn't really think about the accent thing too much until I actually lived in the South. I had two long term girlfriends who had very strong southern accents, and it took some getting used to. We liked fun at each other about it and my friends back in Illinois found just having a conversation with them was the best thing ever. My point is: it's a novelty that I got used to, and it never affected who I dated. If some clown is going to reject you for that he likely isn't what you are looking for anyway.
It's worth noting that having lived in both states that Texas accents are much 'easier on the ears' and smoother than NC accents. There is a BIG difference between the two (to me anyway).

Well of course I can't hear your voice but I assume that if I could I would consider it beautiful because I consider all types of accent all over the world very beautiful as for me I'm from the northeastern United States and we have our own type of accent here but I love to hear the sound of other people's voices from other places in the world and I think that they all have their unique beauty and I encourage you to celebrate what makes you unique to love yourself and every way that makes you you

I will have to say that there are some feminine accents that can make me melt like butter. They are, in order:
-A feminine Irish accent
-A feminine Georgia accent (the Mississippi is tied with this)
-A feminine Texas accent

"Ah, honey-child that there talkin' make me forget I'za married!"

My parents are from the southern US, I lived in Texas for years. I find a Southern accent grating. But it's not just the Southern accent. The Long Island accent, Boston, Appalacia, Western Pennsylvania are not something I would want to hear for the next 30 years. OTOH I find some accents from other English-speaking countries charming -- Ireland, Australia, some English accents but not all. Maybe I'm just a snob.

[Levin]

I have to admit, as an Englishman, I'm not sure I'm the biggest fan. I'm sure it can be nice though, providing the woman is nice! There's a lot of variations, some sound totally different, some sound not so strong at all, so it depends on which. Generally an American accent is very appealing. As I say, providing the lady is not a fruitloop!

[Bananaman177]

I've definitely met people who think a Southern accent means you're stupid, there's a lot of people who hate Southerners and consider themselves to be so much smarter and sophisticated just because they're from up North.

But those people are all dickheads, so they're doing you a favor if they give you shit, because that way you know not to give a fuck what they think.

[SomeGuyCalledTom]

I live in the UK so my understanding of southern accents is probably limited, but from southern girls I've known and/or heard, I find it very endearing. I really get crushes easily on girls with soft, sweet, southern accents. They have that sing-song kind of intonation that makes whatever their saying sound more wholesome and cute

[SomeGuyCalledTom]

honestly I'd so much prefer dating a girl with a southern twang rather than the typical obnoxious-sounding West coast accent I associate with Americans

[AN1995]

Lol its not a big deal.

I've ben with A British girl before,

and

a girl from the Carolinas

They bolth had heavy accents.

I dont mind accents, Lol Kinda hot if u ask me.

[MalcolmNZ]

Don't the best looking women in America come from the south? Southern Bells and all... Southern accent only adds to the beauty, it's human nature most people think their voice doesn't sound very good when they can hear it played back to them.

[Hermes-Paris]

I grew up in the south but now live way far away. Sometimes I hear tourist with the accent and it takes me back. Yeah I will always miss those southern girls. y'all are the best!

[Anonymous]

My voice is Michigan Ohio if that allows you to understand it better for some reason I like when people have accents it's just satisfying to hear them talk differently
from what I hear normally my favorite accents are Australian, and British, but I like most accents I am also a bit of a voice actor myself and can do many voices including southern in fact my Dad's from Louisiana and maternal family Tennessee

[Blindguyplaying]

Hahaha, it really dont matter. But if its thick to point that I can't understand then it'd be a problem. And Yes one girl is to say, "A main, I'll be right Bike." Some can be turn offs but not deal breaking

[Sensmind]

With me it is usual not the accent but the tone , I like soft accents nearly all accents where the speaker has soft tones I find really nice

[Anonymous]

For me it is a huge turn off. I don't know why, but I just really dislike that tone of voice. I would never be rude or tell her that. I don't represent all men though. I'm sure plenty of guys like southern accents.

[TadCurious]

Serenity as a fellow Southerner (although not from Texas) all I can say is BE PROUD OF YOUR SOUTHERN ACCENT! 😊👏👍

[_gigi18]

I'm not a fan of American accents but I don't mind Southern British accents.

[lookin64]

No matter whether its southern northern, western or eastern they all have their charm and some know just how to use them to their advantage lol

[Jenko_21]

I actually think a southern accent is really attractive!
