Those Crazy Pokemons… The Chilean Orgy Variety…

By jen

I am not really sure why they call themselves Pokemons other than their love of Anime and bad fashion.  This makes no sense.

Apparently, hundreds of teenagers gather in public parks in Chile to take part in orgies, called ponceo, where they anonymously get and give oral sex. (They refer to themselves as “Pokemones.”) [Newsweek.com]   via: “TheFrisky”

The Newsweek piece says…

Sociologists have labeled the Pokemones an “urban tribe,” a term they have also applied to hippies, punks, and goths. But unlike those that came before it, this is the first “urban tribe” here born in the Internet age. As such, communication technology is key—Pokemones have hundreds of contacts on instant-messaging programs, and they regularly upload videos and photos to sites like YouTube and Fotolog. But despite the expanded capacity for communication, theirs may be the first movement in which debate about its goals is noticeably absent.

They aren’t political, they love everything!  Including oral herpes apparently…

Curiously, the teenagers do not seem to hold any particular convictions about their identity in a political or sexual sense. Instead, their movement is mostly about image.

Their parents are all up in arms about this horrible trend.  Blah blah blah… Reading the article mentions they are all decked out in the latest fashions, tech gadgets and whatnot.  If you are so pissed about the lifestyle, quit buying them shit.  Trust me, if you stop paying for internet access and take away their cash they are going to have a harder time fitting in with their non-conformist friends; just a thought.

So the Chilean teens have discovered sport fucking.  They have taken the Rainbow party to the city parks and added a bit of emo to boot.

Some really great insight into the intellectual depth of the neo-liberal youth of Chile…

“Ponceo is about having fun,” says Natalia Fernandez, a 15-year-old with pink hair and a pierced chin. “This time I had seven partners.”

“It’s basically a fashion thing,” says Raul Barra, a tall 19-year-old with piercings down the sides of his nose. “A Pokemon has a certain style and does ponceo.”

“I guess we don’t really think about politics or anything,” says Valentina Espinosa, a petite 16-year-old whose teased platinum hair adds about six inches to her tiny stature. “We’re not for anything, but we’re not against anything, either—well, except our parents getting mad at us for being Pokemones.”

“I’m just having fun. I’m only 16, and I won’t get hurt through ponceo because I don’t go hoping to find a boyfriend,” says Isidora Fernandez, who insisted on being called Frambuesa (Spanish for raspberry).

“This week I bought two T-shirts and a webcam,” says Pablo Gutierrez, 18. Sticking out his tongue to reveal a piercing, he adds, “And a new tongue ring. I was sick of my old one.”

Welcome to the world of dumb ass teenagers, Chile.  Sorry it sucks but at least you do not have Augusto Pinochet anymore.  Just beat their asses and take their credit cards away.
