i have a question:
do chavs refer to themselves as "chavs" or identify themselves with the word? (do they have some sort of "pride" in being / acting like what other people recognise as a chav?) I was just thinking about this because the wikipedia definition of “racaille” mentions the word “chav” (although I don’t think the two are that similar), and in france, the word “racaille / caillera” is commonly used among those who are likely to be considered as racailles by others... in fact, those can often boast about being a racaille, although they might not accept being called a racaille by a non-racaille (to simplify things)… this word is sensitive anyway, because it can have so many meanings / connotations and can be really disdainful… it is also sometimes used to stigmatise young people from the “banlieues”. then again, I have not been living in france for some time, so the connotations associated with the word might have changed in the meantime… Also are there only white chavs? |

I think the word "Chav", is very trite.

I don't know if they identify themselves with the word chav, possibly. I've never heard a chav use the word chav although once a chav called myself and some friends "townies" which was the word for used for chavs in the area I live until a couple years ago when it was replaced with chav, so I don't know. I think most of them are too stupid to realise people call them chavs. |

^^^ Go to somewhere like Croydon, and see how many middle-class tossers act like they're from Stockwell. Wankers.

I have a housemate who most would consider to be a chav. He enjoys Drum and Bass and likes drugs and that. But that's alright..he's a nice chap, easy to get on with and polite. His friend came around earlier with his mini motorbike and we raced it up and down the lane behind the house. Chavs = fun is what I am trying to say I think.

I dont like this broad brushstroke way of calling everyone "Chav". I prefer the regional variation you encounter, just cos it probably means a different thing everywhere you go.

I don't know, chavs are fun? what the hell is a chav? When I hear people say chav now, I assume it's someone wearing tracky bottoms tucked into their socks and all the other stuff that gets associated with this stereotype. It's just a fashion right?
Like the guys who like to dress up as gangsters, it's just a fashion, most of them will not shoot you or anything. When my friends use the word chav they mean to refer to the type of fuckwits who will beat up rock kids and stab a stranger for fun or more minor things like shouting abuse at strangers for reasons I do not understand. The majority of these FWs wear the tracky bottoms and what not, making them chavs? I don't know, I just think it sucks, really saddens me that these FWs don't relate to other people. |

its just teenagers innit. Theyll do what theyre told is cool just to fit in, its just when the things being done become more destructive its seen as "chav". Fact is its a universal teenage thing, whether the conformity is destructive or not, it all amounts to doing what someone else has told you.
