Let's talk about the power of the human voice and how sexy a great accent can be. I know that sometimes people comment on my voice because, as you can probably hear, it doesn't really make much sense. I'm from the East Coast, grew up in the UK, and as a result of that, some words I say just come out completely odd compared to some of the other words I say. But gosh, I remember a friend of mine whom I'm still very close to and was a boyfriend for a while. The first time time he opened his mouth to speak, oh my God, just wanted to rip my clothes off right then and there. And similarly, if somebody has a voice that I don't like, I just get so turned off so quickly. But there are certain accents that just make me really excited and aroused, and certain ones that are a massive, massive turn-off. I'm curious to know how important someone's voice is for you.
