What is Essex?

Essex is not a place full of slags covered with make-up so thick that they're orange. I never wear make-up! I don't see the point. Not all parts of Essex are bad. Yeah okay there are some bad parts but not all of them! The girls in Essex don't get pregnant at the age of 16, we get good educations! We have Essex role models like Dame Maggie Smith who played Professor Mcgonagall in the Harry Potter films.

What does "Essex" mean?

Essex is a county in England with a bad reputation. From programmes like TOWIE most of England (and a lot of Essex) has the idea that all people from Essex do is claim benefits, get pregnant and vajazzle each other.

I live in Essex and this is not how it works. Essex is just as varied as any other county in England. I'm at secondary school and there are some chavs who can't speak proper English, but there are people like that all over the place. Most people at my school are completely comprehensible, though most of the girls have their skirts very short and their faces caked in make-up.

Geographically, Essex is the driest county in England and one of the most affluent. There is, however, a town called Harlow, which I think is probably one of the main sources of Essex's reputation. I've been to Harlow. It's not very nice.
London's influence on Essex is large, from proximity, and also from the fact that a lot of Londoners fled to Essex during WWII (and are the reason that Harlow exists today) so a lot of slang in Essex is from London. This includes slag, sket, slut etc. etc. The accent here is quite London-based.

They also say "ain't" a lot, though the whole 'Innit blud' is a myth. People only say that as a form of mockery. Ts at the end of words get dropped off, and sometimes in the middle as well. A'ichood instead of attitude, la'ichood instead of latitude. That's quite extreme though. People also say 'like' very often.

'Oi, mate, I'm goin' down Essex to see my gran.'
'Be careful you don' get knifed on the streets. That place is dodgy.'

Essex - what does it mean?

Home of the sluts, and chavs. Essex in the UK is totally populated by them, and you can't go to a club without the threat of being stabbed, or getting drunk and getting a girl pregnant.

Essex has its ups aswell. It does have some ok places.

But do not go to Essex for a holiday.

If you ever want to have kids then do a runner, come to Essex, you will achieve it in 1 night!

Noun: a 238-ton whaling ship, based out of Nantucket Island (USA), famously sunk on November 20, 1820 in an encounter with "Mocha Dick", an albino sperm whale defending his pod against human predation. Incident widely acknowledged as the direct inspiration for Herman Melville's 1851 novel "Moby-Dick, or The Whale".

"Following the second hull strike by Mocha Dick, the Essex crew had only minutes to provision the surviving boats and cast-off before the ship sank."

Essex

A county that is officialy in east anglia NOT the south east. (now i live in essex so its ok for me to rant about it) Essex is stereotyped as a cultural wasteland, and unfortunately in many cases this is true. You can divide essex into two, the north and the south, both sides are totaly different but have equally annoying people. The south is very urbanised and full of loud, agressive, fake cockneys who wear tacky gold chains and predend to be some big east end crime lord.

The north of essex on the other hand is vastly rural, and seems more welcoming but dont be fooled. The people who live here are the english equivilent of rednecks, though not usually racist, they are agressively conservative and will go completely sectarian on anyone who tries to change their traditions. They all have shotguns and a usually a vast aray of other lethal weapons, that they wont hesitate to use on trespassers and poachers.

So there you have it Essex, contrary to everything i have just said, essex is a great place

Southern essexer: Oi mate, wot u lookin at? dont u know im a gangter from east landon?

northern essexer: get orf my fucking land *bang* *bang*

Essex

A place constantly stereotyped.
It's funny because i'm an Essex girl, born and bred in one of the 'worst' parts, yet i'm not a slag, not pregnant, don't wear burberry or any fake crap, can talk properly and i'm well educated.
Go figure. :)

Oh god, she's from Essex, must be a slag.
