Stereotypes A study was conducted in 2008 where people were asked to grade the intelligence of a person based on their accent and the Brummie accent was ranked as the least intelligent accent. It even scored lower than being silent, an example of the stereotype attached to the Brummie accent.[2] According to Birmingham English: A Sociolinguistic Study (Steve Thorne, 2003), among UK listeners "Birmingham English in previous academic studies and opinion polls consistently fares as the most disfavoured variety of British English, yet with no satisfying account of the dislike". He alleges that, overseas visitors in contrast find it "lilting and melodious", and from this claims that such dislike is driven by various linguistic myths and social factors peculiar to the UK ("social snobbery, negative media stereotyping, the poor public image of the City of Birmingham, and the north/south geographical and linguistic divide"). For instance, despite the city's cultural and innovative history, its industrial background (as depicted by the arm-and-hammer in Birmingham's coat of arms) has led to a muscular and unintelligent stereotype: a "Brummagem screwdriver" or "Brummie screwdriver" is UK slang for a hammer. Steve Thorne also cites the mass media and entertainment industry where actors, usually non-Birmingham, have used inaccurate accents and/or portrayed negative roles. Advertisements are another medium where many perceive stereotypes. Journalist Lydia Stockdale, writing in the Birmingham Post ("Pig ignorant about the Brummie accent", December 2, 2004), commented on advertisers' association of Birmingham accents with pigs: the pig in the ad for Colman's Potato Bakes, Nick Park's Hells Angel Pigs for British Gas and ITV's "Dave the window-cleaner pig" all had Brummie accents. More recently, a Halifax bank advertisement featuring Howard Brown, a Birmingham- born and based employee, was replaced by an animated version with an exaggerated comical accent overdubbed by a Cockney actor.

Essex girl From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search "Essex girl" is a pejorative term used in the United Kingdom, to imply someone is a stereotypically promiscuous, blonde, unintelligent woman from Essex. It was widely used, gaining popularity during the 1980s and 1990s. One reason for the origin of the term may be Essex's geographical proximity to London. Many Essex residents do come to London by train for a weekend out. It is mirrored in U.S. by the term Jersey girl (or equally useful 'bridge-and-tunnel-crowd') with less emphasis on promiscuity. Unlike the comparable "Essex man", which developed originally as a political term describing aspirational working-class voters in the South and East of England who voted for Margaret Thatcher, "Essex girl" did not carry political connotations. -- Worse LOL

	"Brummie screwdriver" is UK slang for a hammer. No it isn't wtf, a hammer is a hammer, a screwdriver is a screwdriver. They are 2 very distinct tools. Honestly, sometimes I think some peoples just rip Birmingham out of sheer snobbery.
