According to a 2022 survey, Gen Z uses emojis in online communications 57% of the time. Translate that to how often your teen spends on their phone and that’s a lot<\/em> of emojis. They’re so prevalent that they’re the fastest-growing language on the planet. But parents like you aren’t native speakers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you may use a laughing face or two, your children know the slang behind upside-down smileys, chillis, and the seemingly innocent bowl of noodles. There’s a potentially dark world behind the otherwise innocuous symbols, and you need to know about it to keep your kids away from possible dangerous situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily, that’s exactly what this guide intends to do. Consider this your one-stop-shop for the hidden meanings of emojis (innocent and sexual). Once you’re clued up, it’s all about open communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understanding Emojis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Emojis started life as a necessity. During the late 1990s<\/a>, NTT DoCoMo’s (a Japanese telecom company) pager service allowed a limited number of characters, frustrating its users. So, an engineer at the company created 176 simple pictograms (i.e., emojis) that would covey emotions and information in one character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naturally, these were basic symbols \u2014 hearts, music notes, and weather symbols. However, their evolution began when Apple released the iPhone in 2007 and tech-savvy individuals spread the previously hidden emoji keyboard across the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, their design has changed drastically. Today, the emoji keyboard includes symbols representing various professions, races, and genders, thanks to the global realization that these pictures can fast-track a shift towards inclusivity and visual storytelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emojis’ Role in Communication<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Emojis have had a deep cultural impact, influencing everything from personal community to social media to marketing to branding. It’s a universal language, transcending traditional language barriers by conveying both emotions and messages with nothing but widely recognized images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the basics, emojis also allow more nuanced communication. They can tone of voice and context alongside superficial words, adding more meaning to an otherwise bland text conversation<\/a>. Ultimately, they humanize cyber communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common Emojis and Their Meanings<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Context is key when deciphering emojis’ meanings. Sometimes, emojis you think are innocent won’t be and vice versa. The trick is to know their basic meanings and figure out the context later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, let’s take a look at some of the most common emojis and their meanings in today’s culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Innocent VS. “Sexual” Emojis<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As you’ll be pleased to know, not every emoji has a sexual or darker undertone \u2014 some are innocent and used in general conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decoding “Sexual<\/strong>” Emoji Conversations<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kids these days are cryptic. They think (rightly or wrongly) that their parents have no idea what they’re talking about when using emojis, especially when message contain these symbols alone. Hence, you need to know how to decode emoji-heavy conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Context Matters<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As we’ve alluded to, context is key when understanding emojis. After all, the same emoji can have various meanings. For example, the exhaling face (\ud83d\ude2e\u200d\ud83d\udca8) can mean exhaustion or symbolize satisfaction\/tiredness after sex. Similar can be said for the woozy face (\ud83e\udd74), which can indicate a grimace or sexual arousal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To decipher the context (and therefore the correct emoji meaning), we suggest looking at the whole text thread. That way, you’ll get a feel for the conversation, rather than jumping to conclusions based off one text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pattern Recognition<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, it’s the combination of emojis that indicate sexual content, rather than standalone symbols. This table covers the most common:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udf9f\ufe0f\ud83d\udc83\ud83d\udc40<\/td>“Striptease please.”<\/td><\/tr>
\ud83c\udf7f\u2744\ufe0f\ud83d\udc45\ud83c\udf69<\/td>“Let’s ‘Netflix & chill’ and have oral sex.”<\/td><\/tr>
