We’ll wink to that!
A recent study has revealed that singles who use emojis have more sex!
The study which polled more than 5,600 single people revealed that fans
of the emoji are more likely to have sex than their none emoji loving
counterparts. 54% of emoji users reported having sex in 2014, compared to 31%
of singles who abstained from using them what so ever.

But why?
Well we have a theory… we’ve all experienced this situation when you’re
communicating with someone new, its playful, intense and you want to let them
know you like them, but it’s notoriously difficult to get any of this across by
simply reading the tone of texts and emails. Often things can be interpreted
wrong and you’re left not knowing how each other is feeling at all.
Texting and emails can jeopardize emotion, cutting out any subtle
inflection of your voice that you may have had; a cheeky smile and playful
exchanges of contact. This is where emoji’s come in… they successfully bridge
the gap between technology and personality allowing us to express emotions in
our messages.
The facts…
Approximately 50% of men and women agree that emojis 'show personality'
and 35% said they make 'expressing feelings' much more easy… the results speak
for themselves!
Have you updated your phone recently – there are A LOT more to choose
from! So which are the more popular…?
The ‘WINK’ is the most widely used emoji…
...and it’s men who are more likely to interject their messages with 'kiss' and 'heart eyes' emojis - women prefer 'smileys'.
What's more...
While emojis may be great to create a bit of cheekiness into the conversation, sexting and selfies did not fare as well — if you're a man talking to a woman that is! 77% of ladies said they do not want to receive a 'sext' from a date and 48% are not interested in your selfies guys, no matter how dapper you look!
