What is being coño? Is it the getup? The talk? The walk? Is the aura? The presence? First, I cringe everytime I hear the word being uttered mercilessly around. En Español, coño crudely refers to the female genitalia, much like "pekpek". Yes, THAT vulgar. It was said that the word being used as it is now started when Mestizo- creole rich kids throw that word like "fuck" being used now as a replacement to another word in a conversation. Like, "Coño pare, we were so wasted partying at the yacht club" as it replaced now, "Tangina/Fuck, pare, my friend was so plastered she made bangga her new car." Note the Taglish in the sentences and the liberal peppering of expletives.
But what is a coño really? Is it another label differentiating the rich, the poor, the middle class and the nouveau riche? Is it even about style or fashion? One can be mistaken as a coño with how somebody dresses up and how they sashay in the rarefied air of Rockwell and Greenbelt as opposed to the "jologs"- (the antithesis to coño) masa and middle class haunts of Glorietta and SM.
Usually a coño also worries about enough cash. Of course, the compulsory out of town trip is around the corner, clubbing on weekends (aside from house parties, they hang out at Nuvo, M Cafe, Embassy, Mezze, Fiamma to name a few), and the latest dress collection in Rustan's.
They usually hang out in choice, tightly knit groups and tends to know who sleeps with whom (Like OMG, M. make patol to that creature, fuck! YUCCK!!, and guess who is this DOM bringing to the parties na naman.) Sex is a liberal topic in claustrophobic Makati. It's applied liberally indeed (make you worry about HIV infection spreading like wildfire).
Coño biatches looks the same, smells the same and talks the same. Ever wonder most girls look the same in Greenbelt? With the men? Gay men or not. All have the same generic hairstyles and clothes.
