Emoji Users Have More Sex

For those of you that hate the :) and their relatives, I have some news for you.

Emoji users have more sex than people who stick to just words, according to Match.com’s Singles in America survey.

More specifically, 54 percent of emoji users reported having sex in 2014, compared to 31 percent of singles who didn’t use them. And 64 percent of men and 46 percent of women who use the adorable icons regularly are getting busy at least monthly. But they also want commitment: 62 percent of emoji users want to get married compared to 30 percent who avoid using emoji.

Another riveting finding from the study: The three most popular emoji that singles use are the winking face, the smiley face and the kissy face. I happen to be partial to the raspberry face (sticking tongue out) but maybe that's why I'm lonely on the weekends.
