I just want to say I find this very offensive to myself and my friends etc...
First of all can you or anyone as a matter of fact define what a 'Chav' is and since everyones opinions do differ then I don't think that is possible.
Do you define a 'Chav' depending on how they act or how they dress? I would like that answered before I continue.

both in equal measures i'd say, where Aur lives is pretty much the chav capital of the country, braving Boston on a Saturday can put you off your food the sights are that bad, the clown necklace is still very much THE fashion accessory in this area, you have to wear at least 4 at once though, also the girls must wear clothes that are a minimum of 2 sizes too small(and they're pretty fat round here) and as cheap and tacky as possible, loads of Barbie make up, 3 or 4 pairs of massive earrings, greasy. bleached hair scraped back into a ponytail, this is the Lincolnshire chav, i'm hoping i haven't just described you and your friends here...if i have, i'm sure your Barbie make up looks lovely on you sweatdrop

First of all, by the way Chatham is home of the chavs'!! get it right lol!
secondly I'll repaeat what I have said elsewhere.

Now i am a chav' but an educated chav' at that, and I think it is funny how people put others into stereotypes, especially when they do not know the facts or the people themselves. I call myself a chav' because of where I live (Chatham itself!)my chioce in clothes, accent and my economic situation. none which can be say are a choice exept my clothes, and why should I have to wear anything apart from what I like and feel comfortable in.

Thirdly 'chavs' and pikeys are VERY different. I know REAL pikeys and I wouldn't want to mess with any of them most 'chavs' are posers, and have a problem with the world and like causing problems, and think they are tough.

Discuss... don't you think though that the 'Chav' culture is a result of our society and government, aswell as our ways of life, and a change in others ways and lifestyles in order to basically survive in this world?

I just think that it is so much of a cliche about 'Chavs'... I know many 'Chavs' that still hold moral values and will help an old lady carry shopping (If they aren't so scared of being mugged!) or stand up on the bus and hold doors open...
Yet i know many 'goths' that spend all their time vandalising, fighting, drugged to the eyeballs and being *****, but it seems that the 'Chav' culture is the one that is being used as a scapegoat and persecuted, without people looking at the reason the culture has developed.

what you say is very true, it is the way of the world to generalise, either from laziness or just ignorance, and of course what most people see of 'chavs' is the stereitypical image, either on tv or in papers.
don't get me started on goths though mad

got to say i know nothing about the reason behind why people want to dress/look like that.
but you usually don't see an old goth, so i'd say they're mainly teens and people in their early 20's trying to be cool, and failing dismally, i find the need to paint your face white and hang around graveyards a bit freaky, but each to their own you know...
i'd say that the majority of the time, people get into certain looks because of the music they're into, and at a young age you're very easily influenced by the music scene and how the bands you like dress, because you don't have much of a sense of self, so you follow the herd.
I'd also say a lot of it is down to wanting to fit in with a group of peers, even if it's only a small group
i was into the rock/goth stuff myself when i was at school and onwards, upto my early 20's. then my tastes broadened.
Now i wouldn't be seen dead in the clothes i used to wear then, but i never made my face all white or dyed my hair black! did used to wear too much eyeliner and a lot of purple though sweatdrop
