I suspect my boyfriend is a chav

I love my boyfriend more than anything, but I have a feeling he could be classified as a 'chav'- give me your views:

He is a hardcore dance DJ
His DJ name is 'Part-E'
He smokes weed A LOT
His best friend has a cap permanently attached to his head and is known as 'Lang-E'
They go on package holidays to places such as Bulgaria... not to see the sights and experience the culture though... but because the beer is cheap and it's sunny enough to get a lobster tan
His sister drinks out of 'fish-bowls' (usually a mix of malibu, alcopops and vodka)
His mum and sister watch Hollyoaks religiously
His family buys the Daily Star every single day

Is he a chav?

Yes, no question about it.

sounds like a lower class bloke to me.

Key chav-ishness: does he wear a cap, preferably burberry, wear cheap gold from Argos, wear trakkies, or swear at anyone just for not being a chav?


If yes, turn him in and your community could get £5,000 :biggrin:
Does it actually matter?

His DJ name is 'Part-E' CHAV
He smokes weed A LOT (doesnt make him a chav)
His best friend has a cap permanently attached to his head and is known as 'Lang-E'(CHAV)
They go on package holidays to places such as Bulgaria... not to see the sights and experience the culture though... but because the beer is cheap and it's sunny enough to get a lobster tan(Good lad, id do the same)
His sister drinks out of 'fish-bowls' (usually a mix of malibu, alcopops and vodka)(they get you pissed, i've done that, nothing wrong there)
His mum and sister watch Hollyoaks religiously(so do i)
His family buys the Daily Star every single day(so do i)
His family runs the local Legion pub(must be awesome)
Most of my friends smoke weed. I doubt any of them are chavs.

No, not really. But do any of the threads on here actually 'matter'?
It doesn't change the way I feel about him. The funny thing is that his personality is not remotely chav-like.

Fair enough- although he doesn't really go for the lobster tan anymore because the last time he nearly died (seriously!) from sunburn!

I read somewhere that it could stand for 'council house average'. Lol, make of that what you will.

Disgusting snobbery is what I make of that.

Sometimes I REALLY REALLY hate this country.

there is nothing wrong with people who live in a council house, but chavs are a menace.

Chavs are just normal kids with nothing to do, so they end up getting in trouble and causing people problems

Hope you don't think I'm a snob for posting this thread- this sounds kind of pathetic but, I was brought up in council estate and so I am in no way snobbish or superior. Chavs are not 'people from council estates' but 'arrogant sheep'. It's just a shame that people assume all the working class are thick muppets just because a few of them are.
