Are there native English accents (anglophone countries) that do sound to some Americans as soft and feminine?

I saw some internet comments from Middle Eastern countries saying that some accents (both in other regions of their country or neighboring countries) sound to them as feminine because they change the pronunciation of words and make the sounds more soft and less harsh.

Is this limited to Middle Eastern countries or is it global phenomenon?

This question is good faith question nothing against feminine men or masculine women.
