Whenever someone mentions finding a Russian accent or the Russian language "sexy" I have such a hard time not cracking up. I grew up in a Russian-speaking immigrant community and it feels like the least sexy language ever to me. To me it evokes fat old guys (whom I love) swearing at each other over tea and ladies telling me "as a favor" that I should wear my hair over my ears because they're way too big. (Them I would like to shiv.)

Interestingly I get very upset when someone speaks Russian badly in TV or movies. Which is pretty much the rule unless actual Russian speakers are in the roles.

My mother does the opposite of this, she tells me to put my hair behind my ears every five minutes. She drives me nuts with that shit.

Tangentially related, friends tell me my mother language is pretty but all I hear are words so I can't tell if it's a pretty sounding language. I used to laugh and be like "what? No way". My mother language just remind me of shit talking and being looks and money obsessed lol

I am Russian, so it's just language I speak. But Russian accent is so awful and we taught to try and not to show it. And I am really uncomfortable talking in English because I hear the damn accent and I cringe inside.

Bad Russian in movies is just bad.

Same here but with German accents. To my ears, pronounced German accents are either connected to really crappy accents in American movies (in which they are ususally played for laughs and/or belong to Nazi carricatures) or annoying people in my classes at school and university who were bad at English but were entirely oblivious to it. I know accent doesn't automatically mean someone doesn't know the language or is stupid but if it's really pronounced, it always carries the stigma of "a bit dumb" and that's just not sexy to me.
