Hm, your comment has absolutely no substance to me "sweetheart".. please explain what you mean by the shades of grey I am missing out..

Are you sayin "chav" is not a prejudice word?

Is it not used, especially by the media, to tarnish a subculture of a poorer community, and does it not lead to generalisation and stereotypical views.

Isit because it is not used as a direct term for someone's colour, so it therefore doesn't matter.

As, if Jade is a chav, and as that is what she is, you can therefore call her a chav and it is acceptable, why is it not acceptable for Jackiey to call Shilpa "the indian girl" if she has trouble pronouncing her name, as that is what she is now isn't? Sweetheart
