We love Essex and get annoyed when the 'Essex girl/boy' stereotype gets put on us. But as much as we don't like all being put into the same box, some of us have used it to our advantage, even if we won't admit it. What's the difference between an Essex man & an Essex girl ? The Essex girl has a higher sperm count ! Why was the Essex girl disappointed when she received her driver's license ? Because she got an F in sex. What's the difference between an Essex girl and a washing machine ? You can dump your load in a washing machine without it following you around whining for a week.

Why do Essex girls wear so much hair spray ? So they can catch some of the things going straight over their heads. Kate Winslet enjoys a rare public outing with son Joe, 19, in NYC... and he's the spitting image of his director dad Sam Mendes In the United Kingdom, the term ‘Essex girl’ has been historically applied to white women in the working class ( Biressi and Nunn, 2013). ‘ The Essex Girl’ became a British social class joke about so-called stupid and promiscuous females, typically from the lower working-class areas of Essex around Dagenham. This geographical area is traditionally a place where those from the poorer parts of the East End have been rehoused and where many of the men are crude ‘metal bashers’, working in the Ford car manufacturing plant.

Basilwood: Top, the original Basildon sign on the A127, middle, the sign was given a Remembrance Day makeover and, bottom, the Olympic rings were added to the sign to mark the 2012 Games an essex girl goes to the council to register for child benefit. "how many children?" asks the council worker. Five. One to make the mixture and four to peel the Smarties. What makes an Essex girl's eyes light up? More than just brashly consumerist, Essex was also painted as a hotbed of bigotry, the place where white people moved to escape parts of London that were no longer white enough for them. In 1994, Lord Inglewood, a pro-European Conservative MEP, told a newspaper that the “Essex view of conservatism” was threatening the “more generous, less xenophobic historic tradition”. (Inglewood also blamed the influence of Essex for increasing “public bad manners, aggressiveness and yobbishness” in the party.) Essex came to represent “white flight” in the UK, and there is much evidence of xenophobia and racism in Essex: the county was a hotbed of BNP membership during the first decade of the 21st century.

At the wake in Kensington, to cheer everyone up, Heffer told the story about the bloke on the train. One of the attendees, the Sunday Telegraph’s deputy editor Frank Johnson, who had himself grown up in the East End, told Heffer that he had identified a fascinating social phenomenon. “I said: ‘Yes, he’s Essex man!’” recalled Heffer, “and Frank said: ‘It’s brilliant! Do it, do it!’ So I went away and wrote the piece and it appeared the following Sunday.”

Diss our weird sounding towns.

Formerly bucolic outposts such as West Ham, East Ham, Ilford and Barking became bustling metropolitan centres. Between 1921 and 1932, the population of Dagenham rose from 9,127 to 89,362 – an increase of 879%, largely thanks to the construction of Becontree, the largest council estate in the world. The arrival of Ford Dagenham in 1931, a huge car manufacturing plant, provided thousands of jobs. Still, the rise of manufacturing in these newly metropolitan Essex hubs did not create prosperity for everyone. A social survey of Greater London, published in 1929, described Canning Town and Silvertown as “perhaps the largest area of unbroken depression in east London”.The Essex Women's Advisory Group was set up in 2010 [4] to combat the negative stereotyping of girls living in Essex by supporting Essex-based women's charities helping those in need as well as by funding projects that promote women's and girls' learning and success in science, technology, the arts, sports and business. The charitable fund is administered by the Essex Community Foundation. [5]

Many ladies from Essex have made themselves household names around the country and overseas - these include: If an Essex girl and a Surrey girl jump out of an airplane at the same time, which one would hit the ground first ? The surrey girl, the Essex girl would have to stop to ask directions. Left your fake tan on a bit too long and looking less 'sun-kissed' and more Ompa Loomper? "It's fine, I'm from Essex, it's just what we do." Got the words generally and genuinely middled up? "I'm from Essex, what do you expect?"

Know a Funny Joke?

What did an Essex girl and President Gorbachev have in common ? They both got f***ed by eight men while on holiday. Quite confident that nobody will win, she turns to the Englishman. "Where do you live?""M M M M M M M M Man Man Man Man Manch Manch Manch, Manch...""No, you lose" says the beautiful landlady. Turning to the Scotsman, she asks, "Where do you live Scotty?" trying not to laugh. Today, Basildon is a poster child of inequality. It contains a quarter of the most deprived areas of Essex, despite housing an eighth of its total population, and is the sixth most unequal town in the country. Pitched against such evidence, the myth of Essex as the great Thatcherite success story says more about the will of the Conservative commentariat than anything else. In the mid-1980s, my parents bought the Southend council house my sister and I grew up in, but we didn’t feel like triumphant beneficiaries of some economic miracle. A microclimate of inequality existed on our street, separating homeowners from council tenants. I remember my mum and dad refusing to sign one London-born homeowner’s petition to have his sister, a renter, evicted for being the mother of a “problem family”. No one seemed any richer, just further apart.
