Default Bogan - The True Meaning

A fascinating beast. The majority of the species are hideously repugnant and unintelligent, and yet they manage to breed in ever-increasing numbers and populate an area known as the outer west. It is quite common to find five or six offspring in each family group, often with a different father for each new baby.
Their habitat consists of a weatherboard or brick-veneer dwelling and is characterised by an early-model Holden or Ford in the driveway surrounded by a group of males discussing why the carby is stuffed and the results of last night's footy (a primitive gladiator-like spectator sport enjoyed by most bogans).
The female of the species, while smaller in stature, is far more loud and aggressive than the male. While the males tend to be very friendly and congregate with other males, the females spend most of their time in supermarkets and shopping malls, using a shrill high-pitched call to discipline their children and contact other females.
Males and females rarely interact socially except during breeding season, which is otherwise known as Friday night. During this time, females are allowed to enter the male-dominated area known as "the pub" and display their impressive coloured plumage to a prospective mate.
Herein lies an intersting phenomenon. Males will often fight over a particularly attractive female and she will mate with only one male, while some less attractive females have been known to have several partners simultaneously.

In England they call them CHAVS. They all wear Burbury designer knock offs but otherwise they are the same as our Bogans. In Scotland they are called Neds.

If you check out Bogan on Wikki it will have a link to Chavs. I think Chavs are worse.

Still, they are all the begining of the end of the human race in my view.

Have a Chavtastic day

There is a difference between 'bogan' and just being a plain ol' '****3r. That site posted above shows, just how different they really are.

When I was young (many , many years ago ) living on a farm , a " Bogan " was a wire netting gateway secured at one end in a fence and held by 2 pieces of wire at the other . In those days a waterpipe gate was out of the question because of the cost unless absolutely necessary.

Wow , how interpretations change over the years .

Don't forget going down to the pub with a white stained vest to converse on how annoying your wife's are.
