being that i'm from MIAMI,
the CAPITAL of non-native english speakers
(and being HISPANIC myself-
my parents are Cuban,
but i was born and raised in Miami)...
i am surrounded by the "Hispanic" accent,

now, what i meant by hispanic accent is the accent produced by non-native english speakers which are of hispanic origin (my parents, Penelope Cruz, or Antonio Banderas for example).

I guess since i live in the mecca of Hispanic accents, they don't appeal to me, as much as a Southern or British accent would since they are "foreign" to me.

Hope that clears things up...

EDITTED TO ADD:
I never meant that the Spanish language itself was unappealing to me... i just dont like the way non- native english speakers (who happen to be of hispanic background) sound when they speak english.

BUT i love the way they sound when they speak PROPER spanish like Spainards & Venezuelans.
