So this is pretty much the same chill Lanka server putting it here for more exposure.

We have 3 education related chats along with a main chat for general yaps.

So people can talk with fellow undergrads or postgrads/working people or School Students.

General chat is for all three to talk like a all in one place.

We also have specific Tamil and Sinhala channels to talk in that languages since main chats are kept in English.

Plus there are channels for extra interests, like posting photographies, talking about books, sports, music, anime etc.

I'm putting this post here to gather more like minded people who are interested in talking with others in respectful way and obeying the server rules.

Saw this post in the neighboring community and wanted to get to know further details and opinions and fact checking from the people experienced it 🫠🫠

Also putting this here for more exposure

So this is a new community separate for Sri Lankan young adults so for anyone above teens and wanting a space for us!!

r/srilankantwenties

Show your support with upvotes/comments and sharing it in other subreddits!!

:)

Country's main subreddit ( r/srilanka ) is not really suitable to discuss random topics or low effort stuff that's not directly tied to Sri Lanka.
And further more there is a subreddit dedicated for teenagers under r/srilankanteenagers.

So thought about creating a subreddit dedicated for people who are not in teens yet want a chill space not only for serious discussions but out of context stuff too, and a space for posting anything

But mainly keeping it in English, similar to r/srilanka

(And yes moderated as well free from any sorts of weird stuff)

If you are interested could you show your support either via Upvote or Comments?

2. Couple Dramas

3. Real life dramas

Hey there stranger, you might or might not know me,
Today must've been tiresome / sad/ happy or whatever other kind of day for you.
Most of us don't get hugs and heck some of us can't remember last time we had a person to hug and feel there is someone there for us.
So today is a day to spread love and hugs!!

Consider me as your virtual friend / stranger / someone you like
and take these hug offerings from me, for going through many of the stuff you are going through strongly alone.

If you believe it's not strong enough, may these warm hugs provide you for bit of hope to keep pushing till it feels warm enough in your life!!

Love you all!!!

This is going to be somewhat lengthy post.

The actions related to this post was triggerred by the following post.
https://www.reddit.com/r/tamilyapping/comments/1uwmf8x/comment/oxmxypp/?context=1&screen_view_count=2

So TL;DR the person was saying these days women's preference for 'Taller Men' than them is normalised (as it should be since it's preference after all), but when a man says He "Prefer" fair skinned girl he gets bashed/criticised/ not welcomed by the community.

I wanted to test this out myself and made 2 posts regarding this.
One explicitly saying I prefer fair skinned girls

Dusky - https://www.reddit.com/r/tamilyapping/s/VNUrDogJpF

Fair - https://www.reddit.com/r/tamilyapping/s/JRktgaSZbw

I thought the people here would be more suitable to know the difference between "preference" and "statement" but guess apparently I was wrong, as I got bashed for having a "preference" towards fair skinned girls.

The Dusky one got around more than 61k views and 400+ upvotes (it was around 100+upvotes around the 1 hour mark)

Which honestly left me baffling, because both of these was constructed in a similar manner to see the reactions, and left me worried about actual fair skinned peoples' silent hatred they are getting in the online space.

Literally both was centered towards, having a preference towards one tone of skin color, while Dusky Received Love and Support whilst the preference for Fair skinned got bashed.
Which doesn't seem fair?

A person claiming that fair skin is the beautiful one is something worthy to raise voice against, but bashing a person just for them having a preference towards a specific type in person is like reverse colorism.

Which behavior should be called out for, just as equal as when some one tries to deem "This color is the best skin color".

If you are a fair skinned person or saw any incidents around similar stuff like this give a comment.

I wish more people raise their voice regarding incidents and prejudice like these and understand the difference between a person having "preference" vs "statement".

THIS WAS ACTUALLY A SOCIAL EXPERIMENT REGARDING TO REVERSE COLORISM AGAINST FAIR SKINNED PEOPLE IN THE INTERNET
