Used in the context it was actually used in, the term was and still is fully justified.
Please note the Ed, felt fit to edit it already and thankfully leave that part in.
My point is that middle class children do not wish for a council house or drop babies willy nilly. Yes, there are numerous pregnancies amongst young middle class girls but nowhere near the extent there is amongst the masses.
And such girls are in my highly valued opinion, scum.
Hence........................
Council estate (social housing for the poor) FACT
Scum (drop babies for financial gain and a wish to populate our chav culture) FACT
Girls (vagina owning, boobed things with not much common-sense) FACT.
I have not stereotyped, I have shown facts. I am glad your daughters have made a good life for themselves. It is stories like this that strengthens my view that we do live in a meritocratic state. Everybody can make it. In the same way that some posh Rodean sorts I see whilst visiting Brighton look like cheap tu'penny ha'penny scrubbers.
So, I make no apology in the context I used.
However, if you feel still feel insensitised by it, then give yourself a pat on the back for breeding such wonderful children and fighting the prejudice that people like me no doubt have.
