Check out www.truelad.com, it's just banter - quite intelligent a lot of it.

Isn't that the one that got taken down because it gave advice on how to rape women or how the chances of getting caught for rape were negligible and nothing to be concerned about?

I must say I'm sick of that culture in the UK. I don't see why, when drunk, people have to turn in to complete t*ats, but apparently it is the done thing these days. I've also noticed that common courtesy and manners seem to be dissipating in this country. It's really quite sad.

I'd rather live in America...

I also hate the word 'banter'- it really grinds my gears.

i will admit that drinking is taken a bit seriously over here...it's like you either drink or get made fun out of for not drinking

That was the charming work of the ingeniously named UniLad.

I'm seeing a lot of this lad culture around these days what happened to good old honest guys that have a little respect for girls, instead of just being a number as it were.

But now us as girls seem to think that the nice guys are 'creepy' and being a lad is the normal type of behavior in this country.

That's very true...I'm wondering why girls don't talk to me as much when I just try to chat on platforms, trains etc.
I'm so used to being abroad and talking to people who will talk to everyone. With the exception of new york when you're carrying a suitcase through central park :smile:

But I wish there was girls that like nice boys...Everytime i hear a woman speak it's usually got the word "EX" in the sentence, but then they like going for the lads that don't look interested in them and treat them like meat.

Everyone in Liverpool is 'lad' if you're not a lads lad here girls don't even look at you twice, I suppose it's what part of the country you're from where being a lad is acceptable!

Fake tan, short shorts, Toms, pumps, those 80's fashion sense you see on every teen lad. If you wear this crap, you should be ****ing ashamed of yourself, being a sheep a following everyone like a good dog.

I ****ing hate modern society. I seriously hate Topman, River Islandand Obey for pumping out **** like this.

Never heard of rab 110s AirMax but i have heard of AirMax itself. I hate chav stuff too if your thinking im a chav.

I'm guessing your one of those sheep who consistently buy chinos, pumps and anything with 'Topman', 'River Island', 'Obey', 'Republic' or 'Cult'.

Can't even express how much I agree with this thread! My college was full of lads who thought if they strutted about in chinos and made enough crude comments the girls would come flocking.
For some reason some guys think this behaviour is actually attractive. I knocked back a guy one night because he was exactly this type and he proceeded to verbally abuse me :|
Wish chivalry would make a come back!

I never claimed otherwise and i can clearly see with the female symbol next to your username.

Chav isn't excluse to males you know?

Cult contains a brand known as 'Super Dry', you must of heard and seen it around. It's 'hip' to wear a plain white shirt which you can buy for a fiver in any shop but they rather pay 25 quid for a plain white shirt with the brand name on it instead.

Honestly, it's a waste of money.
