I’m trying to think of a scenario- any scenario- where my accent (or lack thereof) could be considered ‘charming’ or ‘alluring’ by any stretch of the imagination.

I actually don’t have an accent per-se, but I can mimic the Southern, Boston and Canadian accents fairly convincingly, yet I get the feeling those are accents people automatically deduct IQ points from the second they hear somebody speaking it.

I can also speak conversational Spanish and some basic Russian, but I don’t think fumbling through some really simple guidebook Spanish (or Russian) would be considered all that attractive.
