Why do chavs always take their tops off and have pit bulls?

[jeanette1976]

Any ideas? Not that EVERYONE who has a pit bull is a chav so no offence, I think they're cute, but it's true! ;D

I guess I'm going to be like a lamb to the slaughter here.... yoiks!

[violetblue]

With male chavs, it's that 'big dog - small penis' phenomenon.

[electricblue]

I'm hard i'm a chav with a vicious dog,and thats just the girlfriend!

[4getmenot]

And not every chav has a pittbull :-) But yer you're going for the stereotypical chav with trainers baseball cap top off curb chain being dragged along by his pitbull. I can see where you coming from. :-) and dont they always seem to be skinny and lanky

My brother in law is like that..well he doesn't have a pit bull ~ he has a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, lots of tattoos, a customised Vauxhall Zafira, is a self employed (non tax paying) window cleaner on benefits, at least 2 foreign holidays a year, council house, gold jewellery...

Is he a Chav? oh yes..

[whiffey]

Ooh goody, a chav thread !

What about the tattoos, keep hitching up the trousers, complete refusal to ride a bike properly (not cool), persistent sniffing and spitting, calling everyone Mate, never saying thank you in shops, reading the Independent, infesting Greggs pasty shops, using car horns instead of doorbells, lager tops, etc.....

pippa he sound like the man of my dreams any chance of an introduction ?

[Pippa68]

Oh god..he calles everyone 'mate' as well..even his wife! oh, and he supports Arsenal. And he is a twart.

[whiffey]

Pippa, pmsl here, I forgot that lot !

Also a Vauxhall Nova or Corsa with a fat exhaust, rear brake DRUMS painted red, and silly blue lights everywhere and go-faster stripes and big woofers in the boot.

[4getmenot]

Oh electricblue dont me confused on your gender now too. I thought you was a girl

[crete]

whiffey, you know too much about chavs i suspect you may be one but are not yet ready to COME OUT to everyone here

[Pippa68]

Hmmm whiffey..

He has always owned chavvy motors ~ even before 'Chavs' existed! all of them were 'specials'..Vauxhall Calibra, Cavalier, Ford Escort RS Turbo, Renault 5 supercharged wotsit. He only has the people carrier now as he has spawned two Chavettes ;o) and even the Zafira has tinted windows & big exhaust.

Did I forget the eyebrow piercing and hair gel?

[fee-is-me]

I live among dozens of 'them', alas.

Revolting creatures.

If ever there was a stereotype that lived up to its name, it's the chav.

[Pippa68]

Crete you may be in luck ~ as long as you don't mind him going in the back door as he doesn't consider that as cheating on the missus ;o)

[crete]

pippa has this man no good points at all , how does his partner put up with him ?

[jeanette1976]

And whats with the wierd hair cut? Shaved in a short kind of bowl 'do' but on a short blade and the with gel all over! How come they look the same all over the country?

And even when they all go out, they dress the same, still with that ridiculous haircut!

Christ, and the way they talk.... thats a whole new language!

[Pippa68]

I have no idea crete ~ he is a complete a$$hole!

[Pippa68]

He keeps failing aptitude tests when he goes for job interviews..

[steviep165]

everyone seems to think they are a fairly recent phenomenon. they'v been around for years though. the chavs of todays forebears were known as charvers in the northeast and still are today.
when i was a kid 20 years ago they were around, the uniform was berghaus jackets then, and cheap creole earings. fred perry wear optional.

steviep what you said is very interesting in the 50 60 70s were cavs around only called maybe mods and rockers or punks
