Sexy accents?
WARNING: Prepare for vapid and shallow girl talk. - Don't judge. You have vapid and shallow thoughts too.
Its strange how talking to a Average Asian Joe lookalike with an deep voice and an American accent AND perfect grammar gets me all hot and bothered. He just seems more intelligent?
What is it with that accent? When an girl has it...It just sounds vain and pretentious, but when an ASIAN guy has it, he becomes slightly more sigh-worthy. - And yes ladies... I am rather well aware that I just dissed my own manner of speaking, but I do believe that it is true, hence all of the stereotyping that goes into well... judging me.
I just thought I'd mention that since that particular thought occupied my mind for at least 20 minutes today, and I was hoping that some of you may feel the same way too.
The anecdote. I was dispensing to this well... average Joe as I had put it earlier, and as I explained his child's medication, I was mesmerized by is eloquence. He didn't just say "uhhuh, yeah" like the other fathers, this guy actually gave me the time of day and listened to what I had to say. And he was practicing his "active listening skills" as my former CSAS teacher would have put it. He asked questions and said... "is that so?" and "Wow! I never knew that." I daren't say he was flirting but he was nice. Or at least nicer than most.
I felt this familiar twinge. He reminded me of someone that I had rather taken a liking to. Ah well... its just probably the accent. THAT would explain why my fathers' American accented cousin gets so many girls.
Perhaps its the promise of intelligence that gets me (and some of my colleagues) going. Or perhaps it could be because the guy sounds like George Clooney. I don't really know, all I know is that it can sometimes make me swoon. :P
Just a side note... I've noticed the same effect on guys when a girl has a British Accent... maybe because old school villains had English accents.
