St Austell-ish

I have chatted with someone for quite some time, and finally chatted (talked in via non typing) off site. He realized I'm am American, so refused to even chat more. Due to my non British accent. I guess I dodged a bullet! Would you say yay or nay based on a non English accent?

My wife is Cornish and I have no idea what she has said for the past 23 years, the usual sentence goes something like:

hmmmf, hmmmf tin, hmmmf, hmmmf china clay, hmmmf, hmmmf Poldark, hmmmf, hmmmf, Run to the Sun, hmmmf, hmmmf, Pastie, hmmmf, hmmmf, Devon scum, hmmmf.

In all seriousness though... Stuff 'em. If your accent was enough to send him running, then that show's more about his shallowness than anything else. You're better off to meet someone that likes you, and your crazy accent.

And, Girl4girlx, the same applies. In Western Europe we like to pretend we are a cosmopolitan society, but there are still small minded people. You can't legislate for stupidity. There will be plenty more that want to meet you.

I'm not that surprised to be honest. For my partner, an American accent would be a turn off, or some type of voices (not accents, just the voice). He's not racist, I'm not English myself. I think Fab has enough people to find what you're looking for. As others have said, at least you didn't waste more time.

My immediate reaction was "huh? Really?". But..and it's a big fat orange wobbly but...the earlier goings-on in the states, might give me pause. That man has not done the average Americans rep the least bit of good.

Complete silence for 10 days so obviously your mind wanders and you come up with all sorts of pre conceived ideas about the people around you based on how they look.

Then when the silence was broken most of us were shocked at how the other sounded and what accents we had.

I don’t get some people sometimes, I can’t think why the colour or accent of a person would be off putting. Though saying that people do have preferences and I understand that. I’ve had this previously with the colour of my skin before I had lots of pics up. I did take it personally that’s why I added it to my profile but now to Me it’s just a preference and I respect that.

You missed the "innit?" off the end of that sentence.

I shouldn’t fret about it. If he is that narrow-minded then he’s hardly likely to blow your stockings off in the bedroom department is he?

What I have learnt about fab is the more open-minded someone is, the more relaxed and comfortable I am and the greater the meeting will be.

There are many flavours of the Dublin accent. I guess that is true of most cities!

Re OP. It could be accent, it could be the sound of your voice, it might just be the way that something that was said. It could just be the guy is nuts and does it to everyone for some weitrd reason. Nobody else will ever know. Best not to read too much into it.

Never heard of an Ossie fetish before. I once had a thing about a girl giving me a blowjob wearing one of those bush hats with those corks hanging down. Imagine her sucking me while the corks gently stimulate my balls..

Perhaps Ossie's are fetish material after all...

Hardly! If you are interested, the British Library has a huge database of accents and dialects (collected by the BBC).

If you search for British library, accents and dialects, BBC voices you should find it.

Under Essex the Maldon conversations sound just like my Uncles chatting...

If someone has an accent (aside from the different English speaking countires) that means they speak more than one language. For me that's a sign of intelligence, which is only sexy.

Not sure I see the direct connection to intelligence. So many people have English as a second language from it's prevalence in the modern world. I can go to Germany and tell them I'm 14 years old and would like a return ticket, but that probably won't get me laid!

We are lucky enough to have a few friends who's 2nd language is English and their children speak the mother tongue and English and plus some accents are damn sexy but people do use it to be clever and also it's a form of racism as sadly most of our friends have had some sort of abuse ??

On the "intelligent" note. A second language implies so many things. Not just the speaking factor. Here in Ireland as in England the idioms, the different ways of expressing life in general. The banter, Craic, etc. Everything is different as it would be in Spanish or Dutch. Also depending on the region of each country. Its only interesting and intelligent to get to understand and learn all these factors. That's what I'm referring to nothing less nothing more.

I'm astounded that some clown could be put off by an accent, be it American or Chinese! I would have thought that any foreign accent would have guy's forming an orderly que, not just for the interesting company that someone from a different culture is likely to be, but also it's well documented that the British are far more reserved than other Broad minded nation's when it comes to sex. As for regional accents, I love them all, and could listen to them all day. I've always found that if you take an interest in people, they will take an interest in you, so bring on your accents wherever you are from.
