This is me

the one on the right.

I have long straightend black/brown hair i wear skinney, eye liner and do a lot a skating.
You might think i'm emo but i also smoke and drink.
Does that make me a chav?
Where i live there is a difference, there is chav smoking and drinkin then there is emo smoking and drinking.
Chavs do it all the time because they think it makes them cool.
Emos (me) do it like 3 times a week and we get stoned which we do for the fun of it, not to look cool.

Whats your views? Are you a chav? Post a picture and talk about yourself. Same if you are emo/indie/ard nut/rocker/skater/raver/stupid...


:D

It's all the same to me, we're all human at the end of the day..:rolleyes:

[Virgin Mary]

Well, that wasn't at all biased... I don't restrict myself to a certain social group.

[Havoline]

how does smoking and drinking make you a chav...

[Browney]

LABELIN IS 4 FOOD NT PPLZZZ.

[Breakfloor]

i cant label myself, i like to wear smart and casual clothes. im a satanist, i drink. i listen to heavy metal and smetimes dance.. i dont know, but your not a chav.

[womanizer]

im a transvestite

[ClassicLegend]

Doesnt matter what you are!

[Moh]

Go to "mosh pit" in town (Near the bus stop outside princess quay). Then you will notice they aren't the same :P

Its scary around there, its like a big mix of:
Emos
Goths (Yes, there's still goths there)
Chavs

Strangely, they all get along.. but the emos and goths just take the piss out of the drunken chavs.

So yea, I'm just me, I dress how I like and do what I like :)

[IceNineKills]

They all suck.

Don't worry, I'm like a 10 minute walk from Spiders, I know what it's like :P

[Chipmunk]

I wear what I feel comfortable in.

Normally NIKE trousers, damn im a chav..

Sometimes some nice JEANS.. damn im normally again

or sometimes my Superman and Batman shirt :D.. holy crap im a geek.

[Kardan]

I'm ginger.

I can't stand 'chavs', but 'emos' I'm alright with... :rolleyes:

[buttons]

personally i'm not gonna start up a conversation with an "emo" because i'm not interested in what the normal emo is in to. If drinking & smoking makes you a chav, then i guess that's what i am

Init, emos are boring as you get. Even goths are more fun half the time. Of the options put up I've put chav because they at least enjoy themselves and aren't up themselvs about what they are - they know they're louts half the time and don't try to be anything different. Frankly chavs are the most "true to self" of the subcultures

[N-Dubz]

out of them 3 id say im a chav.

[BowTies1]

Haha, chavs being the most true to self :P, yeah most can be pretty sound but come on the little **** what go around in groups of 15 acting all hard and starting on anyone with hair past there ear just as long as there alone or only with a couple of mates, there **** if they are alone and you walk past they don’t do **** all because they know that you will kick the crap out of them.

On to emos...

Normally people who say there emos are far from crying in a corner slitting them self’s, they just say there emo because they have black hair and a pair of straightens. Most people now just label people for the sake of labelling people, if you actually looks at you and your friends you'll properly find out your nothing like the actual definition on what you call yourself.

[Earthquake]

I think emos turn the whole labelling into a competition, this whole ''chav'' thing has been blown at of perportion, yea they might argue/swear/drink/smoke/swear hoodys etc, but whats wrong with that? tbh thats english :S I do all of those, I don't label myself a chav because Im not a mug, only reasons people like you get punches etc is because you give it to people who look like chavs and call them one. Its annoying, stop the labeling. be what you want, don't try to be one better.

[N-Dubz]

its all about calling someone with black hair, skinnies and eyeliner on an emo and calling anyone whos wearing a hoody, drinking and smoking a chav.

what happened to the normal people?

They are true to themselves, in that they don't try being anything other than what they are. Yeah they act up - anyone can act up in a group - but they at least admit they are what they are, whereas most emos and goths pretend they're somehow something really original when they all look the same.

Emo's a fashion, so yeah it's quite right to call people with straightened black hair and side partings emo. It's nothing to do with cutting yourself or anything, that's more goth than emo anyway

True, I see where you coming from with that.

Emos is turning into a fasion, it wasn't from the start, and I have never heard of slitting them selfs being a trait of a goth.

[stickwitu]

i'm none of those.

the fact that people want to be stereotyped into a group and go around calling themselves emo or chav is what confuses me - whatever happened to individuality.

[N-Dubz]

"normal people" nice one. I wear eyeliner & i smoke & drink. :rolleyes::eusa_danc

i didnt call you abnormal.

its just all the craze to go around calling someone an emo or a chav nowdays, like there isnt normal people anymore thats what i meant


and as alex said i dont get why people walk around tagging themselves like its really ULTRA cool when it probably isnt lol

[today]

I dont think im either, tbh. lul.

Rather be a chav though. Least you get conversations.

[Zak]

I wouldn't say I'm anything but I'm more to a chav than anything else on the list :P

I just don't like to label myself as it because I don't try and be cool and act hard :(

[Leetzgirl]

I'm abit of both...

I have clothes of emo's, but then i also got clothes of chav jackets...

;/

[FlyingJesus]

i'm none of those.

Fair play be individual if you want but why can't people be part of groups? Surely if a person wants to fit in like that then that in itself is their personality

[drama]

hah i never thought of it like that before :D

and the whole emo vs chav arguement was dead loooooong ago, and srsly i don't see why people have to fit the criteria (sp?) to be in a social group.

I drink, i smoke, i wear skinny jeans but also 'chav' hoodys and nike airs etc, i listen to more rap/grime stuff but i straighten my hair if it's long enough.. so according to some of you i'm both a chav and an emo? :S

[Mitch4?]

I drink, i don't smoke or do drugs, i hang around on the park until they built the skatepark, so now we've changed spots, what does that make me?
A human.

[You]

I'm confused, you seem to be complaining about sterotypes yet at the same time stereotyping by saying no emos smoke or drink but all chavs do and they do it to look cool - Your post just seems like one big incessent contradiction. And to answer your poll, none of those three.

I drink when I'm out with mates but I don't do it to look 'cool', it's become the norm for teenagers these days.

[le harry]

I have long straightend purple hair i wear skinney, eye liner and do a lot a skating.



fixed.

[Patricia38]

IM AN EMO!

[FunerealSerap]

Er, I drink, I smoke, I swear, I listen to rave, does that make me a chav?

NO because I'm the biggest Nightwish fan you'll ever meet and can't get enough of breakdowns, blast beats and soaring guitars. :D

I'm by NO MEANS an emo. I'm not a chav, i'm not a goth, i'm Jess. I'm me. You either like me and accept me for who I am, or you don't. And if you don't, you're clearly not worth my time.

That's all there is to it. :D

[Patricia38]

I REPEAT I AM EMO

[today]

I REPEAT I AM EMO
THATS LOVELY DEAR.

[AndrewByrne]

Im just abit depressed :x
But I'm not emo or anything...

[Ashley 12344]

More Chav than anything. Wear 'trendier' clothes - when I can afford :L

Can't stand skinny jeans 'n proper long hair on lads. Like in your picture, its as long as the lass your withs. Some guy came into the cinemas like that with who I was guessing it was his Mrs., in the dark they could quite easily be mistaken for 2 girls.

[Patricia38]

I thought both the people in that picture were boys, oops.

[Coheed&Cambria]

I have long black hair, i listen to heavy music (NOT emo music), i hate emos and according to all the chavs around where i live im Emo? Thats what i hate about all this sterotypical crap. Chavs think theres only chavs and Emo's.

[Bun]

[CrazyColaist]

but still how does smoking and drink make you a chav? i do both and im not a chav
how stero-typical!

[Coheed&Cambria]

Its the logo of a band called Coheed and Cambria.

There not emo, lol. And i take it becouse i listen to metallica im gonna get called emo?

[WickedSunny]

I personally find the whole "Emo" and "Chav" thing absolutely ridiculous, we're all human at the end of the day, each with different lifestyles..and how we look at life differently.
I don't put myself in a specific stereotype, just be yourself.

[FlyingJesus]

I thought emo was dead?

We thought Alex was dead though and he's back

thats basically what i do lol

[Misawa]

I just call "emos" scene kids, because they don't actually know what emo is. Emo is nothing to do with being "overly emotional/sensitive" or whatever, and the clothing and hair fads aren't either. It makes me laugh that there is a modern day sub-culture of people who don't actually know what their own fad is based on. In today's world, it's fashion, nothing else, nothing more, no matter what they try and say. They aren't different, they are clones.

Emo was a term coined for punk and alternative bands in the 1980s who appeared to put their heart and soul into their songs when performed live, thus creating particularly emotional performances. TERM, not clothing, not hair, not sensitivity. Speaking of which, scene hair looks rediculous, as does their fashion.

The world we live in is a pathetic place.
