I know most of us are familiar with JEJEMON but did you know that there is also an emerging phenom called BEBEMON.
According to my brother, bebemons are those who we call "pa-baby" or "pa-cute." Used in either text messages or whenever we are talking to someone (especially to our loved ones when we are begging for something).
An example of a bebemon text:
"Batit po?" instead of "bakit po?"
"Danun ba?" instead of "ganun ba?"
"Tsila" or "sila"
So, are you a bebemon?

Hi there Kareen DJ!
I'm definitely not a bebemon. I don't really like speaking, writing or texting like that. I think that when you do that, the aim of communication which is to get messages across is not being met. No sense of doing that, I believe.

oh,another person's attitude!
i really don't like jejemons,same as bebemons you've said!
it's like you're being too childish when in fact how old are you,and it's not a nice attitude my friend! even if you'll say it's a way to be sweet to a loved one,it doesn't really help you become a better person. just irritating!

Well, I've never heard of this term "BEBEMON" but I've received some text like these in the past. I just never associated them with the trend of "BEBEMONS." I don't like these kind of trends, BEBEMON and JEJEMON. Why not text the usual way and not massacre the language? I just really don't understand those people who find it cute or trendy. I may be getting old for those trends so forgive me if I really find them lame. :)

I didn't know that bebemons have a term, bebemons came before jejemons. I guess giving them a name is just fad. because of how jejemons became famous.
anyway,I thought they were the same. Jejemons are baby like when they . Like "Ku@ 5an k@ n@ p0hwh" something like that (which means kuya, nasaan ka na po)
