Is the the way they act? or dress? or does a chav have to act and dress like a chav to be considered a chav?

People just call people chavs to make them feel better about themselves

chav is a way of thinking and acting rather than purely just an image. To be true chav you have to act chav. I know a few people who dress chavbut are actually really good guys and don'thave any chav attitude at all, it was just how everyone was in there area so chav fashion caught on, even if you weren't a chav.

By the way at what point was chav officially the word for them, i still maintain pikey as the best word and will not let it go!

I was forced to listen to some Chav on my bus home from work the other day, trying to impress some chavette with stories of how many cars he's stolen and how he back-chatted the judge.

It's not big, it's not clever and it impresses NO-ONE!. FFS.

Yeah ditto.

I think to be a chav or whatever, it means acting like a hostile, retarded, low life, and the budget tracksuits compliment that nicely.

Sometimes (like on that 'how far is too far' thread) I might say chav just because I can't think of a better word to describe certain t*****s around the area.

Actually, there were *some* chavs I know that are alright. They wear chav like clothes, act, speak like the others in the area, even hang out in gangs... but they're not immediately hostile. Hell, even a few went to college.

Correct.

The other week there was about 20 of them at the bus stop. The bus came and they decided they wasn't going to get on it and told the bus to go. But then they saw me and stopped the bus for me.

Bless 'em.
