The Manliest Accent...In The World

Probably shouldn't be here.

Come on, folks.

To me, it's a three-way between Highland English, German and Russian.
 
Russians and Scotsmen can crush titanium with their vocal cords.

For the record I think German is quite unmanly, but also quite sexy. So is Russian.
 
Russian is ultra-manly. Scottish is ball-crushing. South London is kick-in-yer-nuts. German, I hate to say it, is a bit poofy. Awesome, but poofy. ):
 
I read the title and the first thing I thought of was "I'll be bahk". ~(rofl)
So what's he.. Austrian? ,xP

I'll just throw in that I don't think i've ever actually heard an -accent- that sounds manly, i've heard a few men here in Australia and a few men from the US, (probably in their 40's), who had really deep voices and to me they sound very manly.

If anyone's seen this movie, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0206314/, then you'll know what the trucker guy's voice sounds like. I think deep voices like that are the manliest, but they're not dependant on the person's accent.

Edit: Ever since Paul McGillion played the scottish doctor in Stargate, i've always seen the scots as having gentle/funny/calming voice.

Obviously, you've never heard a drunk Scottish pastor denouncing the locals to the pits of hellfire and brimstone, just before he passes out. But, anyway, I think Russian accents are the best, especially the one belonging to Yakov Smirnoff in the early parts of his career.
 
Scottish accents come off as more 'fun loving' than manly. Russian accents make me think of really large dogs that knock things over without knowing it. German accents are rather weak.

My vote goes to the New York accent, especially the kind used in those 1920s-40s mafia movies. <3

Hence why I mentioned Highland.

Some Scottish accents are soft and somewhat sing-songy, especialy in Edinburgh. Glasgow, however is Highland English.

Agreed with the Brooklyn accent. Reminds me of Scarface.
 
Australian, Welsh or Scottish probably. Russian to me sounds like more of a headcold than anything.

Welsh sounds more like lay slurring to me, and Australian sounds a bit like a fake Highland done by an Irishman.

That's me, anyway.
 
You people are all mental, Scottish accents aren't manly at all!

Also Glaswegian is more sing-song than Edinburger accents wtf are you smoking Grimdour. Have you been in Glasgow for more than ten minutes?? Besides what the hell is 'Highland English'. This does not exist. 'Scottish Standard English', dude.

Spanish is surprisingly manly.
