Hahaha lets have a competition of how many pregnant 11-13 year olds we can see in our home towns.
In the summer there was some fair in the park in Ashford, and I witnessed a girl probably about the age of 13, pregnant, smoking, drunk, and about to go on a ride. 'Welcome To Ashford' should have been upon her t-shirt. My excuse is that I'm from Pluckley, not Ashford

She's a traveller. Typically, traveller wedding dresses are extravigant and many girls will spend a fortune on crystal encrusted, over the top meringue gowns. Yes, her idea for what is appropriate to wear for her wedding is tacky but it's kind of the norm in the travelling community (I'm no expert, I'm just going from what I've read and seen on TV).

Here's another example of a traveller wedding, this particular girl was on a UK documentary about Britains youngest brides.

This is like a horrible car wreck. I keep coming back and looking at it. I'm so disgusted, and everyone has already said everything, but I want to hear more about CHAVS from the Brits here. Is it like rednecks here in the US? Also, are travelers the modern day equivalent of gypsies? What do they do when they travel, just go sightseeing??? Also, where do they get the money for such affairs, and do they just go back to being poor after the event? OH, and if they have more than 1 daughter, what then?
Thank You in advance for answering my dumb american questions

It's a derogatory term used in the UK to refer to people seen to be 'common'. I guess it has similar connotations to the term 'white trash' used in America.

Chav - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - that might help you. they're not really like rednecks, well, what i think of when i think of a redneck. travellers are gypsys yes. theres quite a lot about it in the news recently due them squatting on land, causing a nuisance etc.

these pictures are really of travellers/gypsys, they live in caravans etc. some do travel round, some stay put. they aren't really chavs.
chav pictures - Google Image Search. theres what some chavs look like. they like fake burberry, talking incredibly commonly, beer, tits, and so forth. well, thats what i think anyway!

i'm crap at explaining. basically most chavs are yobs, in my experience anyway.

I understand what you're saying, and I'm not opposed to marrying young based on some cultures and how they interact with each other, nor am I against huge expensive weddings.
It's just...sad...that SO MUCH MONEY was spent and she still looked like a Vegas showgirl at the end of a long night and too much tequila...and the girl is only sixteen years old.

What is a Chav?

'chav' (slang) - a young person, often without a high level of education, who follows a particular fashion; Chavs usually wear designer labels including the chav favourite 'Burberry', and if they’re girls, very short skirts, large hoop earrings and stilettos.
Chavs see branded baseball caps as a status symbol and wear them at every opportunity. Normally found hanging around shopping centres.
Also known as Townies, Kevs, Hood Rats, Charvers, Steeks, Stigs, Bazzas, Yarcos, Ratboys, Chorer, Skangers, Scutters, Janners, Kappa Slappers, Scallies, and Spides. Also known as Neds in Scotland, knackers & skangers in Ireland, and Guidos in the USA

I would assume so, and in some cases I think a lot of young people in Britain play it up and exaggerate their er...Chavness. When I was a teenager the term Chav didn't exist, where I'm from we called people like that "townies".
