Chavs: Are you one?

[CrabRacket]

In this present time, we tend to see streets infested with vermin pretty much everywhere we look- and this vermin isn't rats! Its the polite chav gang that spit poison cigarette tar at your brand new jeans. How nice!
I decided to create a poll to see how many of the teenagers that attend habboxforum.com are members of the chav society. Oh, and just to clarify on what chavs are;
- Usually have an aspiration of gaining an ASBO (Anti social behaviour order)
- Dress in track suits
- Speak in Jafaikan (Google it)
- Burberrey scarfs, hats and other types of clothing
- Strong odour of cigarette smoke
- Gold chains and lots of them
- Tend to move in herds around the town centre
- Lose their virginity at the age of 11-15
- Attend the Jeremy Kyle show
- Swearing and spitting at anyone within 3 metres of them
- Hearl abuse at anybody until the victim finally stands up to them. They soon scatter.

Thanks,

Most 'chavs' are better than most emos infact.

[Caution]

Rofl at the list.:P
No, i'm not. I hate them, but find them amusing.

[Pelfe]

No thankyou.

That Is True I Will Admit =]

I'm Emo =]

From were I come from, Chavs carry knifes and stones around to throw at people.
Thats why I think they are vermin. I don't like the styles of emo's at all but they would look better if they were in another style.

Where I come from, they drink Buckfast(cheap cider), wear tracksuits with burberry caps + are overall stupid.

We're saying that most chavs are known to wear Burberry caps..

[3420]

Lol and throwing them at cars and scattering.

[Demi]

Ahh don't I hate when people are labelled.
No I'm not a "chav"!

[CrabRacket]

Maybe I should start up a new thread:
Is labelling wrong?

[Plank]

the only thing i do on that list is wear tracksuits when im not going out anyway, does that make me a chav:( ?

[CrabRacket]

Nah! Its just a guide to help you understand what a chav is. Build an image in your mind and compare yourself to that image.

[MsTanya]

lol naa im not but i wouldnt blame someone if they thought i was

[jordybum]

:rolleyes:

11) Wow, really?
12) Look in argo's and the large gold chains that are advertised are what im talking about. You don't usually see grandma wearing them do you?

The majority of chavs fit into the criteria. Talk about taking the pee..

[Starburst..x]

I don't see the point in labelling, no one can claim to be original anymore it seems, as you end up getting a label slapped on you.

[clarissa !!]

ye im a chav. i beat up old ladies. im well hard.

[Swastika]

In Middlesbrough there are quite a few chavs but anyway...
No im not a chav but most of my mates are, they're alright though.
Its just the young ones like 10-11, that start hurling abuse at you but the minuite you say to them "ya mam" they go off in a paddy lmao.

[Barkseh2131]

nop, i dnt label myself as anything.

Alot of my friends are though.

[MsTanya]

most of my mates are too, but i do knock about with some indie bums [:

[liquid]

That Is True I Will Admit =]

I'm Emo =]

no you're not.

i dress like a chav i spose, not the tracksuits, but chavvy brands, but i would far rather dress the way i do than dress like a wannabe emo.

but no i dont do any of the stuff in your first post, and its a load of crap btw.

[FlyingJesus]

Thread starter needs to get clue sorry.

I know a lot of decent chavs, I'm not one myself but I don't bother them and they don't bother me. Your list is hugely flawed and I think you'll find that chavs are probably the most versatile of all subcultures as they're actually the only ones who truly don't care what others think. Emos and goths and all those depressive toss pots say they don't care what others think, but that's just because it's part of their subculture to think like that. I respect chavs more than I respect emos like you.

[Rizla,]

I suppose I'm a bit of a chav, but the thread starter has no idea what a chav is.

All this labelling stuff is crap.

I have all kinds of brands, K-Swiss, Converse, Reebok and mostly George from Asda. I know loads of "chavs", some are just like me & you. It comes back to that whole judging a book by it's cover subject.

Just because someone dressed like someone who did something bad, doesn't mean they actually are as bad.

o.0 Have you read that article? since it agrees with pretty much everything the thread starter said?


* Lives on council estates and other low-income neighbourhoods, often supported by the “dole”[14] (unemployment benefit / Income Support)
* Takes part in underaged drinking and sex (and, consequently, is associated with teenage pregnancy).[14]
* Congregates and loiters in areas such as bus stops, shopping centre, under bridges,[15] corner-shops and fast food restaurants.[16]
* Is associated with crass, loud, in-your-face drunken behaviour and minor criminal activities. This includes unprovoked attacks on members of the public (see happy slapping), vandalism, verbal abuse, and drug abuse (see ASBO). Often these crimes are committed purely for the fun of it and not the material gain most criminals engage in their activities for.[3]
* Usually are known to have racist views and have a great degree of dislike of ethnic minorities.
* Classicaly (particularly in the schoolyard culture) have a vehement dislike of 'goths' and 'emos' over other social stereotypes
* Celebrates ignorance and rejects education, thus making themselves unemployable.

No I'm not a chav but I do agree with who ever said not all chavs are mean I've known some who are very nice people

[Mentor]

The problem here, is not with the definition of chav, just with your understanding of it. If these people are "very nice people" they are NOT chavs.
Just becuse they may dress like a chav, doesnt make them one "/

[fantazia]

- Usually have an aspiration of gaining an ASBO (Anti social behaviour order) - Nope
- Dress in track suits - Trackie trousers i dont own anything else
- Speak in Jafaikan (Google it) - *** u on?
- Burberrey scarfs, hats and other types of clothing - ye i have them
- Strong odour of cigarette smoke - nope
- Gold chains and lots of them - silver chains and 3 of them
- Tend to move in herds around the town centre - nope only 5 of us every other week
- Lose their virginity at the age of 11-15 - how the **** does that make you a chav?
- Attend the Jeremy Kyle show - what if i did cos my dad dont see me?
- Swearing and spitting at anyone within 3 metres of them - urmm no m8 soz
- Hearl abuse at anybody until the victim finally stands up to them. They soon scatter. - no sozard i give when needed to.

That make me chav? :s

Noooooooooooooooooo

[Ramones]

i agree with the thread-maker, and what's all this rubbish about you saying "oh i hate labelling" you don't realise most chavs label themselves, they want to be a chav and therefore make there best efforts to look and act like one.

[@K]

People call me a chav:@ because they are all rich(or mostly are rich whom go my school) and my stye is different to theirs.

Partly yes, but not randomly swearing at people.. But if there's a reason then.. Just take em down init. (No knives or anything btw)

rthj no way do i ever want to be one, rather die.

[Casanova]

It annoys me that if someone changed the word emo or mosher instead of the word chav in your little outburst there'd be outrage etc.

But imo they aren't as bad as you described them, or at least half of them. I'm sure you're socially reclused (spelling?) and struggle making friends, like alot of posters here. Or you follow under the lable of the opposite steotypes like emo or goth...

I think i'm just normal, but about 90% of my friends are neds (scottish 'chavs') but, on a daily basis we also hang around with some 'moshers' as we don't really give a damn about lables. But i think people like adults call us neds?

I'm not a 'chav' imo.

[YoManGo!]

I love all the 'rock' kids around here, who listen to the worst brand of music there is who'll go round saying ''I hate people who stereotype others and hate them for who they are'' but then go on to say ''but OMG I HATE CHAVS they should just die''

Exactly same here. They're like "Don't stereotype me I hate being stereotyped and it's stupid" next minute... "Those chavs should die"

Plus alot of people use reverse-psychology to get stereotyped, they say "Dont stereotype me" so that they get stereotyped hah.

I Don't sterrotype people , but i don't like being sterrotyped.. i mean if someone called me a chav i'd find it offesnive because i'm none of what you listed. i'm in no form a chav

From: Gill Howard
i realy want to be a chav but seriosly i dont know how to be so if you tell me ta
also i have a nother qustion for you i dont want to smoke or any think is that ok or what
but i tell you somthing i have attitude

Webmaster: Well Gill, you are going to have to do some work on you literacy level. At the moment your sentences are easy to comprehend. If you can direct that attitude into violence and intimidation of innocent people, you may still make it as a chav yet! As for smoking, that is not an option I’m afraid. You are going to have to start smoking 20 cigarettes a day, preferably in front of you own children in a enclosed space!

[YoManGo!]

Technically it's a slang term for adolescent, so you're a teenager for the duration of puberty, which is starting earlier and earlier, it hasn't got much to do with the ending of the words.

What you wear, how you act and who you hang around with is what makes you a chav. Chavs were I live carry knifes with them. My friend called Heather and Charlie were chased by a gang of them at a skate park teasing them that they were going to be stabbed. Obviously, the police got involved and the guy (Jason) got a caution. He has been moved around before due to bad behaviour and his father is in prison. However, his brother is not a chav and I used to be friends with him. :)

[English]

Well chavs are simply better than emos on the pure basis that chavs don't slit their wrists.

And if you wanna give me some aggro saying that "not all emos slit" then the same could be said about the way that chavs are described.

does every single chav in your area carry i knife? i doubt it.
and yeah i know what people judge chavs by, but just because they fall under the stereotype of a chav doesn't mean they aren't a decent person. plenty of my friends are chavs, and christians :/

that's one guy? i doubt the majority of chavs are like that.

[CrabRacket]

Quite a few in my school do. Your right that many chavs can be decent but due to the fact that the chavs in the area are pretty nasty, the decent chav can act nasty just to 'fit in'.
The question still remains that are you a chav?

a few, still isn't the majority, so why describe all chavs like the few who act like idiots?
er imo, "nasty" chavs tend to hang around together, the decent ones would be more likely to avoid them than start knifing people to fit in.

Personally I'm a 'hybrid' of different stereotypes. I wear some chavvy clothes, I wear some 'punk/rocker' clothing, I wear baggy 3/4lengths + a large baseball cap{when my hairs down}. So basically I sorta am part wigger,part new-school punk and part townie.
And I listen to all styles of music, poppunk,punk,metal,rap,hiphop,grime,screamo,dance, trance, everything. So basically I fit 3 stereotypes hah.

Music doesn't fit in with chavs since many people listen to different music that they like. So music assumed with chavs doesn't make you a chav at all.

The worst thing was, is that he was still out at midnight. I blame the parents.

You should have pushed him thru the bus window.

[Caution]

You should have pushed him thru the bus window. Lol, yeah...:rolleyes:

Happens usually around skate parks, bmx tracks and play areas for babies. I feel sorry for the little .. person since he will grow up to be a loser in life. Lack of social skills don't help you get a job anyway, however why he was out at 12 I don't know. Maybe he got confused with the dates and thought it was new years eve.

[Browney]

Being honest, I stereotype a little bit. I do say "those chavs" and I do say "those emos" more than I really should do. But that's just to my mates. And it depends whether you are using for instance, chavs the same way you would say dogs. Like branding a group of people rather than individuals.

[habboalterasion]

yeh i knok out all the grebs n goths

[FlyingJesus]

No, I freaquently mock them on there attitude and outlook on life aswell.

I bet you don't have the balls to mock them to their faces though. Same with all the emo/goth/grunge kids, they make fun of chavs to their mates but when a chav challenges them they slip up in their own pool of urine that's been flowing down their trousers.

[Breakfloor]

People say im a chav because the way i dress and speak
but i wouldnt wear burberry if someone said wear it or die with a gun to my head but i wear only platinum i wear trackys because of how they feel, they feel loose and lightweight i speak jafaican in a sence My home is my ends
my house is my yard but gyal dem and boi dem is a stupid word. theres chavs and theres my type we are usually black or white kids who have a black older brother im mixed. chavs are the ones who listen to 50 cent and eminem my type wich doesnt have a name are the ones who dont wear primark and dont wear fake gold chainswe listen to garage wich is like kano, google him and most of my type listen to uk grime
personally i only listen to Sway and kano really

I am not a chav. The only label i have is the ones on my clothes.

[CrabRacket]

Personally, its the attitude that makes you a chav the most and the tastes you have.

[WarRock]

I WOULD RATHER BE DEAD THAN A CHAV.

lol it true.

[CrabRacket]

I salute you, Sir!

[Hoax]

Chavs look like homo's tbh

[Fonejacker]

Clothes have nothing to do with anything... :S I wear a Fred perry Track Suit now and then doesn't make me a chav... Heres a list of my view on goths and emos.

-Userly hang around Town
-Feeling sorry for them selves
-Cut marks in there arms
-Silly Black Clothes
-White Faces
-Look like they have just been in a pantomine

God There Annoying

[Hoax]

LOL. I agree, but just because someone hangs around town doesn't make them emo.

Too right Tom. Most members of this forum are puzzys and wouldn't dare say bugger all in real life, especially to some chavs that are pretty big & tough.

[CrabRacket]

LOL. I agree, but just because someone hangs around town doesn't make them emo.
Most emo's hang around Basingstoke centre

[Fonejacker]

What you wear, how you act and who you hang around with is what makes you a chav. Chavs were I live carry knifes with them. My friend called Heather and Charlie were chased by a gang of them at a skate park teasing them that they were going to be stabbed. Obviously, the police got involved and the guy (Jason) got a caution. He has been moved around before due to bad behaviour and his father is in prison. However, his brother is not a chav and I used to be friends with him. :)

You don't get out much do u... :| your views on this topic are so wrong i think u need to see the real world.

You don't get out much do u... :| your views on this topic are so wrong i think u need to see the real world.

i think views is the most important word in that sentence, meaning he is aloud to think what he wants. it's not wrong or right. And how can you say he doesn't get out much, is threatening to stab somebody not real enough for you.

also another little bit you could add about chavs - aggressive, opinionated, don't like to look at other peoples point of views.
Yeah your all going to say "but i have a chav friend who's.." I DONT CARE. This is from my experience i'm not saying it's right or wrong like einstein up there but YO.

[H.bubbly]

Oh i'm most definatly NOT. Thank god.
kay thanks bye.

[womanizer]

appear on the jeremy kyle show lolol

a replica of this thread can also be made for goths/emos. There not any better

[hyperlink]

i wud class my self as i chav but i dnt wear burburryas it is out of fashion lol and i dont thro thing sat peeps or s[pit

[Casanova]

Technically it's a slang term for adolescent, so you're a teenager for the duration of puberty, which is starting earlier and earlier, it hasn't got much to do with the ending of the words.

No, just no. The first and most meaningful meaning of TEENAGER is the period of your life with TEEN in the number, 13-19.


Wel.In class im the funniest guy.

I'm sure you are, god if you were in one of my classes i'd laugh AT you too :).

Edited by Nixt (Forum Moderator): please do not be rude ;).


& so they should.

you're a total moron, only a tiny minority of chavs go around knifing people and stuff, the rest are just classed alongside people like that, by idiots like you, because of what they wear.

chavs > emos.

About 1&#37; of 'chavs' carry with intent to use, they're not chav's they're just lowlife bammy criminals.


Yeah. I'm a Chav.


I doubt that, very much so. Your forum avatar just shows that...

by your forum name and habbo name, i doubt you even know the meaning of Chav, i doubt you even know half of what you just posted. I think you merely posted that for your ego and your image on this forum.

Half of that is complete stereotypical, you've just regurgitated what others have said ABOUT chavs, you're trying to BE a chav. A chav wouldn't admit they are one, they're just a mere wannabe then.

About 99% of the people calling themselves a chav or trying to be one, wouldn't know the meaning of chav if they had a siamese twin who had a 10 metre banner attached to them across there head with the common meaning of 'chav'.

[Kaytti]

I'm just me! I can't stick chavs who are just drop-outs and stuff. Emo's are ok, their music isn't bad!

I have grunge friends, (and I like grunge music but don't fully consider myself grunge), and we always used to say 1 grunger on 4 chavs. As that is the way it goes. I've never been bested by a chav thanks and neither have any of the grungers I know either. And I don't think any of us have either been scared or beaten in a fight by any chavs that challeneged us.

[wishing]

In this present time, we tend to see streets infested with vermin pretty much everywhere we look- and this vermin isn't rats! Its the polite chav gang that spit poison cigarette tar at your brand new jeans. How nice!

[Rise Against]

No m8 i r no chav

[Jazza]

I am definately not a chav, I'm pretty sure I was one when I was about 12 and living in London (Stopped being a chav at 13), but at that time the word 'chav' had not been heard of so I still say I'm not.

[Thq]

God i hate labeling. and for starters what people are wearing has nothing to do with labeling.

and no, i'm not a 'chav', labeling sucks !
omg i totally agree i hate it when people label people, like chavs, pretty boys, emos, goths, skaters i really hate it, i wear tracksuits but it doesnt necessarily mean im a chav :S i dont swear and spit or speak "jafaikan" :S
its really pathetic when people label you.

[blah blah blah]

What ever the **** chav is it sounds rather stupid a gay. Who would label themselves as that kind of person? AND who would label themselves as emo or goth! Chav just sounds like another word for emo thug. And no im not a 'chav' and dont plan to be one because then i would obviously get labelled :/

say such as graffiti artists they dress like chavs dont mean they are one.

plus people on this forum say they are a chav but they'll get knocked out in one.

No, I am not one, I prefer to stand back and laugh at them attempting to look tough. Has anyone noticed they never start on people when they are alone? Because I have, they always need "friends" if you can class them as that with them. Some can be ok, but then most are complete...ill stop there.

Stereotyping or what?! I'm actually shocked that someone could spend so much time being as stupid as to write all this. Chains on lads look amazin... and as for the virginity one.. that is the WORST 1! I'm 13 and I've just lost mine and I don't find that chavvy AT ALL because it's NOT! And whats wrong with smoking? It's not JUST chavs that smoke you know, I know plenty of people who smoke that aren't chavs. And they don't swear and spit at people unless they say anything to em, an even then they don't spit they just stand up for themselves. Don't see why everyone seems to stereotype them so much its ***** ridiculus. If i wanted to stereotype Emos I would say

-Get great pleasure over stabbing self :)
-Listen to awful music
-Wear awful clothes
-Get buzzes off pain and dead people

But if emos choose to live the way they do i'll let them live that way... you've obviously never spoken a word to anyone REMOTELY chavvy otherwise you'd understand that most of them are genuinely nice people who just like to stand up for themselves and like to drink n go out n stuff! Live and let live :)


I am sure there has to be a chav aroud habbox somewhere. Or maybe because its Friday night there out...

Oh my! I just read that and that is ridiculous! I go out on Fridays but only because my bf does wi all his mates so I go 2... but tbh where would you rather be? at home flicking around on msn or out with your mates having fun?

It's not JUST chavs that smoke you know, I know plenty of people who smoke that aren't chavs.

1)Ok first of, what the **** do you think a chav is? "Chav" is a derogatory stereotype. Nothing more. Chav IS a steriotype. So yes, Obviously its steriotyping, if you dont steriotype chavs dont exist, since all chav is is a steriotype?

2) Im not sure id assoiated chains with the chav stereotype, but regardless there association doesn't change depending on whether you think it looks cool or not.

3) loosening there virginity at an early age and teenage pregnancy are part of the chav stereotype, The stereotype is a set of conventions which mean anyone whom meets enough of them, then classes as the steriotype, in this case a chav, you may be a chav, you may not be. I dont know, ive never met you. For filling one convention doesn't necessarily mean you fit the full stereotype though.

4) As above, its part of the chav steriotype, but its not the whole of it, you can have a chav who doesnt smoke (theoerticaly) and a smoker whos not a chav. The stereotype is unaffected.


And they don't swear and spit at people unless they say anything to em, an even then they don't spit they just stand up for themselves. Don't see why everyone seems to stereotype them so much its ***** ridiculus.
1) whats rediculus is how stupid youd have to be to not realise that "chav" IS a stereotype.
2) If there not massively anti-social there NOT chavs. Its an essential part of the stereotype.
A chav, does spit, does swear and do "start" on people for no reason. If they didnt, they wouldn't be chavs.


If i wanted to stereotype Emos I would say

-Get great pleasure over stabbing self :)
-Listen to awful music
-Wear awful clothes
-Get buzzes off pain and dead people
Emo is also a stereotype, although you've confused it with goth by the looks of it, aka the association with the ocult, pain and death.

The emo steriotype is more around the rich, well off people, whom act as if there really hard done by one over react to things, Wrist slitting, terrible cloths, and emo styled music are what comprise much of the steriotype yes. whether the cloths and music is awful or not is really a matter of opinion.


But if emos choose to live the way they do i'll let them live that way...
And... because someone fits a stereotype, there only emos because you stereotype them as emos remember, whats the difference here. Saying what the conventions of the emo stereotype is, is no different from doing the same thing to the chav one?


you've obviously never spoken a word to anyone REMOTELY chavvy otherwise you'd understand that most of them are genuinely nice people who just like to stand up for themselves and like to drink n go out n stuff! Live and let live :)
No, youve obviously never met a chav, more likely just a bunch of the even sadder bunch of people, id class as "scene" "posers" or whatever. Basically there the real sad acts with no identity of will of the own, who then pretend to be members of another stereotype, chav or emo maybe, to avoid haveing to be themselves. Hence why they fail to forfil the stereotype conventions and instead only claim to be part of the stereotype.


Oh my! I just read that and that is ridiculous! I go out on Fridays but only because my bf does wi all his mates so I go 2... but tbh where would you rather be? at home flicking around on msn or out with your mates having fun?
Having fun, like most people, although friday is stereotypically the main night the chavs go out, although to be fair, its the main night most people go out, being the start of the weekend an all.

[jam666]

can anyone else do what i do? i dont why or how i manage to do this but i just need to look at some one for literally 1sec and i can immediately tell if there a chav, its quite a useful ability because most of the chavs are the so called "popular" kids so you know who / who not to hang with

btw can i add another main element to what a chav is, and thats RAVE all chav's listen to it but i personally hate it i seriously dont know how anyone else could listen to it other then chavs.

to be very very very honest, NO one can class them self's as anything it's mostly how others class you as this and that.

for example i dressed as a emo/punk and acted like a chav, then id be a chav not emo/punk.

it's not just about clothes.

Chav is a derogatory slang (http://www.answers.com/topic/slang) term in England (http://www.answers.com/topic/england) which appeared in mainstream dictionaries in 2005[1] (http://www.answers.com/topic/chav#wp-_note-BBC-20050608)[2] (http://www.answers.com/topic/chav#wp-_note-Telegraph-20050810) . The term “chav” refers to a subcultural (http://www.answers.com/topic/subculture) stereotype (http://www.answers.com/topic/stereotype) fixated on fashions (http://www.answers.com/topic/fashion) such as gold jewellery (http://www.answers.com/topic/jewelry) and designer clothing in the Burberry (http://www.answers.com/topic/burberry-2) pattern (most famously a now-discontinued baseball cap (http://www.answers.com/topic/baseball-cap-1)) and from a variety of other casual (http://www.answers.com/topic/casual) and sportswear (http://www.answers.com/topic/sportswear-3) brands. Tracksuits (http://www.answers.com/topic/tracksuit), hoodies (http://www.answers.com/topic/hoodie), jogging bottoms (known as sweatpants to some) and baseball caps are particularly associated with this stereotype. Musically, chavs tend to like rap (http://www.answers.com/topic/rap-3), Garage (http://www.answers.com/topic/garage-dance-music), and R&B (http://www.answers.com/topic/rhythm-and-blues). Response to the term has ranged from amusement to criticism that it is a new manifestation of classism (http://www.answers.com/topic/classism). The term has also been associated with delinquency (http://www.answers.com/topic/delinquent), the "ASBO (http://www.answers.com/topic/anti-social-behaviour-order) Generation", and "Yob (http://www.answers.com/topic/yob) culture


A Chav Dosnt Mean Your Scum Or Any Lesson Of A Person Its A Way Of Life

[GoldenMerc]

Got a sore throat?

Na,im not a chav,Im more emo than chav LOL

[Kotu]

I know a few "chavs" that are actually quite decent people. I think the whole "chav" phenomenon in the UK has gone a little over board. Unfortunately the people that dress the same, have similar characteristics, and listen to the same music gain the same label as those who are nothing but trouble.

I'm not a "chav", far from it, in fact I'd rather not be labelled with anything. I've grown up, made decisions and this is who I've become. Nothings really influenced me in a major way except the desire to be a good person. I'm just me.

[Deano.]

i voted yes as a joke :)

Between me and 3420 :)

Lol, they're all sad little freaks that hurl anything at anyone but their mates.

Liam!'s one for sure.

[OMGitsaROSS]

In this present time, we tend to see streets infested with vermin pretty much everywhere we look- and this vermin isn't rats! Its the polite chav gang that spit poison cigarette tar at your brand new jeans. How nice!
I decided to create a poll to see how many of the teenagers that attend habboxforum.com are members of the chav society. Oh, and just to clarify on what chavs are;
- Usually have an aspiration of gaining an ASBO (Anti social behaviour order)
- Dress in track suits
- Speak in Jafaikan (Google it)
- Burberrey scarfs, hats and other types of clothing
- Strong odour of cigarette smoke
- Gold chains and lots of them
- Tend to move in herds around the town centre
- Lose their virginity at the age of 11-15
- Attend the Jeremy Kyle show
- Swearing and spitting at anyone within 3 metres of them
- Hearl abuse at anybody until the victim finally stands up to them. They soon scatter.

Thanks,
Mate,
that is hardly true.

And I'm not a chav and judging by your list, no-one is.


Did you get beaten by a chav and now you hate them? aww!

I'm not a chav.
