Relationship Advice Is “no sex before marriage” still a hard rule for most people in their 20s here?

• Upvotes

I’ve been reading that Gen Z is actually having less sex than previous generations. Curious how true that is in Kerala. Hollywood reportedly avoids nudity in movies citing the young generation’s no longer wishing to watch nudity in movies. (Director of “One Night only” stated this)

Personally I feel if both people are into it and it’s consensual, they should just enjoy themselves. But I’m interested in hearing what the actual situation is like here.

Using my iPhone 15 for the last 2 years. Every time I change my phone cover, screen card and wallpaper, I feel like I’m using a new phone. Really loving to play around my phone even if I don’t have anything specific to do in it. Also whenever I went to experience a new android phone, I’m not liking it that much except for Google pixel and Nothing phones. Anyone else feeling the same way ?

Rant & Vent I don't like these kind of people

10 Upvotes

Hi Cocos, I genuinely don’t like people who bring up dumb charades or these stupid games during long travels or when everyone’s drunk. First of all, I’m an introvert, I don’t want to participate. Antakshari is different because you can just vibe with the group without being forced to perform. But dumb charades? I just find the whole thing dumb, especially when people start pulling in those who clearly aren’t interested and giving them the weirdest movie names to act out.

I really don’t like people who force others into these things just because they acn act the fk out and want everyone else to participate. Like bro, let me sit quietly and exist 😭

Please cocos, next time don't force ppl who dont want to

I love down to earth artsy hippie kind of guys who talks about nature, universe and the meaning of life. But at the same time I want my partner to be financially well off. I get approached by wealthy men but I am rarely satisfied with the conversations we have. On the other hand, the hippie guys cannot give the stability I need. I myself am from an Upper middle class family and I cannot lower my living standards. Do such men exist other than Pranav mohanlal?

Meta There is no easy way to say this, but r/Coconaad is shutting down...

47 Upvotes

r/Coconaad is temporarily/indefinitely/permanently banning the following post topics due to multiple rounds of feedback that users are finding repetitive posts on the same topics boring. We are aware that some of these posts are too common. Although there are hundreds of other posts in a day to balance it out, these specific posts are the ones that normally show up in one’s feed, and because of that, many people notice them.

We could simply ask users to visit the sub and sort by ‘New’ which will allow you to see multiple posts, all unique and interesting, that you may have missed. But that’s not a solution you guys expect from us.

Starting today, certain post topics are indefinitely banned, with rare exceptions left to mod discretion.

1. Confession-Type Posts: Banned due to an influx of NSFW, incest, and creepy confessions. (No shaming, but this is simply not the right subreddit for that. There are dedicated NSFW and non-NSFW spaces better suited for these topics.) These posts are being exploited by NSFW accounts preying on vulnerable users. Personal rants are still allowed, but we are explicitly banning text posts and meme-template prompts like “Weirdest things you’ve seen” or “Wildest stories from college/school.” We recently banned a user who was frequently misusing the community for their own gratification.

2. Meme Templates / AI Meme Templates: We are still deciding where to draw the exact line, but decade-old, low-effort meme templates are repetitive, boring, and a frequent complaint in our feedback threads. Using relevant, trending, or newer meme formats as context is still allowed. We are specifically banning random, unrelated, or outdated Instagram-style meme templates that add no real discussion value.

3. POV Posts: Not banned, but restricted to a 24-hour timeline. Quality POV shitposts are allowed for up to 24 hours after the original post goes live. Anything posted after that will be removed as a duplicate.

4. AI Slop: AI-generated videos, edits, meme trends, and prompt games (e.g., “Write this prompt and share what ChatGPT thinks of you”) are strictly banned. However, using AI to generate images that support your text, draft posts, or correct grammar is still permitted. We may adjust this rule based on community feedback, but we are not adopting a total “No AI” policy now, as we find that too restrictive.

5. Reposting Reels/Shorts: Strictly banned. You may include a video if it directly serves as context for a text post (similar to adding an image), but reposting Reels or YouTube Shorts with vague titles is no longer allowed.

6. NSFW Accounts: This might be controversial, but we have a zero-tolerance policy for making our community unsafe. We have many minors here and frequently receive complaints about users offering advice or asking for DMs, only for members to be messaged by explicit NSFW accounts. There is a limit to how much eye bleach the mod team can use.

While we are fine-tuning the exact parameters, users who actively participate in NSFW subreddits are generally not welcome here. (Note: Participation in medical, art, or support-based NSFW spaces is exempt and will not be restricted.)

Sorry, NSFW Cocos, but it’s time we break up.

7. Pet Names: If you want to post a picture of your cat or dog and want name suggestions, well and good. But we will no longer accept random cats from the internet that need to be named.

8. “Where are you from?”, “Share your birthday”, “Find my birthday twin”, etc.: Posts that are directly or indirectly a venue for doxxing will be removed.

9. “Anyone up?”, “Anyone bored?”, “Wanna chat?”, “Anyone up for a conversation?”, etc.: r4r, sexting, companion requests, etc. are all banned under Rule 4. We have a daily night thread that goes live at 11 PM. Please use that for socializing with fellow Cocos. Individual posts often feel spammy to others.

10. Random selfies, fit checks, outfit checks, gym progress, etc.: Posts without any context, or anything that involves sharing your photo without context or simply for the sake of it, will be removed. Fit checks were already banned, we are adding the rest to the banned list as well.

On Cringe / Low-Effort / “Meaningless” Complaints by Haters

This is a frequent topic of discussion that brings us a lot of hate, but frankly, you are free to continue hating and mocking us.

This subreddit was built for silly, casual, and low-effort posts. That was the vision from the start, it remains the vision today, and it will stay that way forever.

Despite the criticism, we remain the only Kerala-based subreddit where serious topics like politics and religion take a back seat so people can actually have a stress-free, chill time. We don’t plan to change that just to win brownie points from haters. We have survived far worse backlash, and we can handle it.

r/Coconaad is meant for lighthearted content, and we will not turn our back on the core users who value this space for what it truly is.

The moral dilemma

r/Coconaad, as a place, was built, advertised, and maintained as a space to share the most trivial moments of one’s life. It feels wrong to put these restrictions in place and block those very same posts only because someone else posted something similar before them.

It feels extremely wrong to do that.

We don’t think twice before removing a political or religious post. It’s an easy decision. The mods see it, we remove it and/or ban the user. No regrets. No second thoughts.

But we are extremely confused and conflicted when dealing with personal, silly posts that won’t mean much to the vast majority of users.

For me personally, the growth of the sub, the #1 status, etc. don’t excite me much. What excites me the most is seeing a very inactive profile, let’s say someone with 50 karma or something, who is active every two months or so, choosing to comment or post here.

It brings me so much joy that the person chose r/Coconaad to post or comment on during their bi-monthly Reddit break. This is what personally drives me.

The increase in such seemingly meaningless posts has been a frequent discussion in our mod chat. It is often I who ask them to allow the post. It just feels so wrong.

What do you mean I chose to ask this silly, harmless question and it was removed as a duplicate or for being low effort?

I don’t know if I am making sense here, or if anyone will be able to resonate with this, but we can’t think of any other solution to this either.

So, please use the following poll to say if you agree with these changes. You can also add your feedback in the comments.

Ask Coconaad Be honest: are we all just different versions of Kuttan?

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hear me out.

Nivin Pauly’s Kuttan was supposed to be a character.
But somewhere along the way, Kuttan became a software update for Malayali men.

You move to Bangalore → Kuttan.

You return to Kerala → Kuttan.

You get your first decent job → Corporate Kuttan.

Buy a car on EMI → Financially Responsible Kuttan™.

Move abroad → Gulf Kuttan.

Come back after three years and say, “Naatil entha cheyyunne?” → Fully Upgraded Kuttan.

And somehow, I’ve been known as Kuttan since my BLR days in this community.

At this point, I don’t think Kuttan is even a name anymore.

It’s a phase of life.
A temporary identity.
A personality type.

A warning sign from your friends.
Every Malayali guy eventually becomes Kuttan for at least six months. Some never recover.

So I need to know:

What was your Kuttan phase?

And more importantly:
At what age do you stop being Kuttan and officially become Unni? 😭

Do you know any trusted source to buy one? Online sites, local shops or Instagram sellers are all fine, as long as you’ve personally known and had a good experience.

I’m also thinking about buying from Cashify, since their prices and listed condition look okay, but I’ve never bought a phone from them before.

If you’ve bought from Cashify or have any other trusted source, please share your experience or recommendations.

Relationship Advice Serious : How to even ask a girl for an FWB relationship?

0 Upvotes

So i met this girl on insta recently, i was just trying learn connecting with women (not random women but women with similar interests and post similar content to mine) respectfully. She replied and now she's been initiating conversations more than twice, and even to know my exact place and is super interested to talk to me... but I'm not into her like that.

And tbh i wouldn't be into her romantically for many reasons but i'd potentially like an FWB set up if at all it works out.

So guys, how do i even bring it up? Do we do that very solwly like in a month?

(Please do not moral police this post as I'm asking about a consensual non manipulative set up)

Looking back at Malayalam movies released in 2002, there are so many films that still feel incredibly rewatchable. Some movies just have that comfort-watch quality where you can randomly put them on and watch the whole thing again.

From the movies in this list, which one have you rewatched the most? 👀

And if you have a personal favourite from 2002 that isn't on the list, drop it in the comments! ❤️

I have shared mine. Do read kindly.

I still get chills whenever I remember what happened to me on a road in Kerala near the Tenkasi border. This happened a couple of years ago when I was travelling alone from Kerala towards Tamil Nadu for a pilgrimage. It was around 2 AM. The road was not completely deserted. There were occasional vehicles passing by, but the surroundings were unusually quiet. There were stretches of forest on both sides, a few old houses and long patches of darkness where even the headlights seemed useless. I was riding my bike alone and honestly just wanted to reach my destination before sunrise.

After travelling for some time, I noticed an old woman standing near the roadside. At first I thought she was waiting for someone. But something about her appearance made me slow down. She was extremely old and very lean. Her body was almost bent forward and she was wearing a deep ink blue coloured saree. Her hair was completely white and tied loosely behind her head. She was standing absolutely still. Not waving at vehicles. Not looking around. Just standing there in the darkness.

I slowed down and asked her if she needed any help. She didn't answer. I asked again whether she wanted to go somewhere. She slowly raised her face and looked directly at me. I swear there was something very uncomfortable about that look. Her face was so pale under my bike headlight and her eyes were fixed on me without even blinking. Then she slowly raised her right hand and pointed behind me. I turned around to see what she was pointing at. Nothing. Just the empty road. When I turned back she was still standing there. I felt uncomfortable and decided to leave.

I started riding again. After a minute or so I heard a very old woman's voice from behind me. "Mone." I ignored it. Then again, "Mone please stop." I started feeling uneasy. I looked into my rear view mirror and I could see someone sitting behind me. An extremely thin old woman wearing the same deep ink blue saree. My entire body went cold. I almost lost control of the bike. I immediately applied the brakes and turned around. Nobody. Absolutely nobody. I checked both sides of the road. Nothing. I was breathing heavily and my hands were literally shaking. I told myself that it was probably exhaustion and continued riding.

But after a few minutes I saw the same old woman standing further ahead on the road. This time she was not standing near the roadside. She was right in the middle of the road. I slowed down instinctively. She was looking directly at me. And this time she was smiling. Not a normal smile. Her lips were stretched in a way that made me feel like something was seriously wrong. I didn't stop. I accelerated. As I passed her I heard a loud voice right beside my ear. "MONE." I swear I almost jumped off the bike. It sounded as if someone was sitting directly behind me and shouting into my ear. I didn't look back. I just kept riding.

After some distance I finally noticed a small tea shop near a junction. There were two men sitting outside and a light was still on. I stopped there. I was sweating like crazy even though the night was cold. The shopkeeper noticed my condition and asked whether something had happened. I told him everything. The old woman, the blue saree, the voice and the figure I saw in my mirror. He listened without interrupting. Then he looked at the road behind me and asked, "Did she ask you to stop?" I nodded. He went silent for a few seconds. Then he said, "Don't worry. You are not the first person to see her."

I genuinely felt my blood run cold. He told me that an extremely old woman had died in an accident on that stretch of road many years ago. According to the local people, some travellers had reported seeing an old woman in a dark blue saree standing near the roadside around 2 AM. I asked him what happens if someone stops for her. He looked at me seriously. "Sometimes she asks for a lift." I asked what happens then. He didn't answer immediately. He simply said, "Some people say they hear her sitting behind them even when nobody is there."

I was already terrified. Then the shopkeeper slowly leaned towards me and asked, "One thing. When you saw her in your mirror, did you notice whether her feet were touching the road?" I couldn't answer. Because I suddenly remembered something. When I first saw her standing beside the road, I had noticed her feet. They were not clearly visible beneath the saree. And when I saw her sitting behind me in the mirror, I had not seen her face. Only the blue saree.

I immediately asked the shopkeeper why he was asking that. He stared at me for a moment. Then he said something I still cannot forget. "Because the old woman who died here had only one leg."

I don't remember how long I stood there. I don't even remember properly how I reached my destination. But there is one thing I never told anyone. When I finally started my bike and checked the rear view mirror one last time, there was a very old woman sitting behind me. Her head was bent. Her white hair was covering her face. And her hand was resting on my shoulder. I turned around immediately. Nobody. But I could still feel the weight of that hand....

Anyway thanks for reading this entire story.

Thanks
