^6 I'm from the West and I Don't even the Accent unless your talking about that "Dude" and "Fool" crap we do a lot here.No Dude,Yes Dude,A Foow or Fool or FU People say it weird some times.
Northern midwest and the Great Lakes accent might be the same, but the Chicago accent is very different from that one. Anyway...

I don't care either way too much about that accent on guys- it sounds a little like the Boston, Philly, and Chicago accents in that it seems 'normal' and reminds me of home. But on chicks? I went on a cruise in the Caribbean with my parents when I was like 14 or 15, and I met two girls from Jersey with thick, thick Jersey accents. Let's just say they made the experience stick with me the rest of my life- I love to hear girls with Jersey/NYC/LI accents.

LOL! I have to agree and that's why I voted for the NYC accent. I dated a girl from there and I loved her accent. I actually wanted to move there b/c you can't find a lot of tall blonde guys and that is why the girls there would like to date one. I've never seen so many dark-haired Italian girls in my life when I went there! LOL!

On the average, women have thicker southern accents than men, discounting those of lower socioeconomic status.
Actually I think it's more such Dr. Phil, something annoying about his holier-than-thou attitude .
Some guys pull it off, but I actually don't like the cornball country music accent on either men or women that much. I prefer the more natural Southern accent, as long as it's not too nasal.

Lol, can you record a clip of your voice so we can hear? Is it as strong as like My Cousin Vinnie, or Goodfellas? lol

The "Cornball" country accent is pulled off by non-southerners all the time, such as Taylor Swift. When you hear the girl talk, there's not a touch of twang, but when she sings, she really twangs it up.
