American accents can be hot, but it depends on the girl.

+1 for warm weather.
+1 for Crocodile Dundee
Would have given the +1 for the hot women but you mentioned trying to find "normal" girls, so I'm not sure what that implies the rest of Australian women are like (unless the other women are all tourists).

Oh no, I enjoy listening to many masculine accents.
Just not from my area.
It's a turn off to hear "warsh" (for wash) and "whut" (for what) and so on.
Rape is indeed a universal language. So is a shotgun blast to the genitals! ;)

Well, I'm not fat and I'm charmed by a masculine Aussie accent.

are you saying other accents aren't masculine?
because if that's the case, you will find that rape is an universal language.

There was an Aussie in some of my courses during my first semester of Grad school. He liked to talk and that was fine with me since I could listen to him for hours.
The only negative was that he kept trying to get us all to eat Vegemite with him. Damn boy had a case or two of it.
I'm sorry Aussies, but that is some NASTY shit!

you only replied to one word in my comment. this is still self-promotion.
YES, perhaps i have judged you a little quickly on the american bit, but you'll have to admit that the internet is filled with morons desperatly trying to differentiate themselves from americans even though most 'cultures' are now a carbon copy of theirs, even in non-english speaking countries. canadians are by far the worst offenders.

I've wondered if the road goes both ways - I find Australian accents unfairly hot. Do you think that American accents are appealing because they're different than yours, or is it just another type of voice to you and your mates?
===
everywhere i go, even within my own province, i have a distinct accent because of where i come from. my accent has never gotten me laid. my radiating beauty and awesome personally did. ghb helped too.
anyway, the only people i've personally witnessed react to accents were fat american 'women'. so no, neither australian chicks or anyone else cares about your yankish ways. you can get back to jerking off.

TTOM's and this one are shameless self-promotion.

Seriously, you have America on the brain. I don't really think of anyone on the Internet as American or anything else. I just see English speakers, I can only guess where they come from, they all seem to have pretty similar cultural knowledge and turns of phrase.
You on the other hand have a bit of an us and them thing going on. I truly think of English speakers and Europe to be what is termed "the West". And to me "the West" is everyone who has a sort of Christian, Roman/ Greek cultural, democratic background. Maybe this is because I am not American and therefore see a lot of different things from a lot of different sources. The internet to me, no matter how full of American people it is, is a bunch of pretty much anonymous people who I couldn't really care where they came from, since I am never going to meet any of them.
But yes, Australia is quite good. No, I don't care what America likes. Yes, I do mildly care what Uberers like.

We don't hate individual Americans, but we hate the American government as much as most Americans seem to. So it would be just like visiting America, except good.

How could you leave out rugby?
--------------------
hmm? Explain yourself young man. You also left out how crocodiles only ever seem to eat american tourists, which amuses the hell out of me. Imagine being so fucking fussy about what you put in your mouth and then deciding on americans. It's like choosing between a bowl of chocolate ice-cream and cockroach poop and saying I'll have the poop. And americans have only been around for like 500 years, and crocodiles are like these fucking prehistoric motherfuckers who haven't survived millions of years by only dining exclusively on americans, which makes me think they probably ate Romans, and the some Mongols and maybe some Spaniards, and *then* americans. anyway you shouldn't have left out rugby, or how Bruce Arena said Australia are only here to make up the numbers at the World Cup and then we kicked arse and brucie boy went home at the end of the first round at the bottom of the table, and then the eventual world champs cheated us out of our world crown. which is just typical.
