Over the last five years, the popularity of the OwO emoji in Google searches has increased by 57%. Lately people have been sending OwO more and more as an excuse to start having sex. In this respect reports The Metro publication cites sex-positive online service Sensuali and psychologist Ness Cooper.
Metro writes that OwO is ideal to send if a person wants to learn more about a suggestive message they received from a partner. For example, OwO may be sent in response to a message in which the partner writes that he or she wants to rob the recipient later. In this case, OwO will signal the buyer’s excitement as well as attention to detail.
“Sometimes it’s easier to use a phrase or acronym than to describe the excitement in text. “Finding words to express erotic desire can be difficult, and many people are not taught to talk about it,” Cooper said.
At the same time, the psychologist called for clarification of the sender’s purpose after receiving the OwO message. Otherwise, starting to have sex could lead to an awkward situation.
It’s also important, according to Cooper, that the OwO emoji isn’t the only element of sexting on the one hand. This emoji should be used in conjunction with other forms of expressing excitement.
