I have identifed a "type" who drive 4x4s in London, wondered if it was accurate...

[CountessDracula]

I live in SW London, home of the tossy 4x4s that never see a hill or any mud.

It seems to me that these cars are often driven by teeny weeny pinstick women who are married to big rugby player type men. I think it follows that if you are an ickle bickle lollipop of a woman and you are attracted to a huge manly bear of a man that you like to be pwotected by your big man and so you feel the need for the same type of pwotection from your car.

Do you think I am right?

I mean, usually people are attracted to their own physical shape etc aren't they?

Here endeth the poisson psychology.

Jealous? Of looking like a twat?

these pinstick women also tend to have lightened, straight hair (subtly with streaks for movement), full make-up

think they look like twonks to be honest

they should be banned so there! especially people who have to reverse park them and take more than 2 attempts.

oh, unless you have a horse of course

I did once think about having stickers produced saying "only c**nts drive 4x4s in London" and having a concerted sticker campaign using impossible to remove glue

I agree with the ban, but what about me? I have a tiny car and need at least 10 members from the public around me to help me reverse park?

Go back to driving school then

pamina would you be interested in my stickers?

But what I really want to know is, is it some weird palaeolithic need to be protected due to being such a twig?

ooo i want some of those stickers!

cod what's a rigge rbugger? It either sounds a bit nautical or something relating to rncrophilia...

PMSL at this thread. MN at its witty best..

And I BET at least someone who has posted is a lollipop married to a rugger bugger and proud possessor (under other circs) of a big F orf range rover..

Oh and it's been proven that men who drive 4 x 4s are suffering from a form of penis envy. It's modern-day freud. It was in my coursework.. Not sure about their female pin stick counterparts tho. Nork envy?

oh god, fio, you don't have one, do you?

*necrophilia that should say. [rolls eyes at irony of typing complete bollocks in same sentence as picking cod up on her novelty typos!]

i've got a 4x4, a samall one but it's a 4x4. Live on ouskirts of London, not central though. Certainly not stick thin and deffo not a rugger DH, not even slightly.

CD - I have a feeling we live very near each other (detiective work from other threads) and my sister is one of the dreaded 4x4 owner. Yes she is teeny weeny pinstick thin but thats through playing tennis and rowing every day so is not skinny but very toned . Husband is short and slim and don't think he ever played rugby but he is a very similar shape to her.

She rationalises the car due to two big dogs and three children. No comment.

Dogs, rowing and tennis.. A 4 x 4 is the obvious choice...

Can I just ask - what's a monza??????????

LOL Sleepyjess - you have a point on that one, has to be said!

Ah but he may have wanted it for subconcious penis-related reasons Fio!
