Women use more emoticons in text messages than men: Study




Women are twice as likely as men to use emoticons in text messages, according to a study by a US university.

The emoticons, which began as happy and sad faces, have developed into dozens of other expressions, and have become hugely popular in text messages and email.

The study by Rice University used smartphone data from men and women over six months and analysed 124,000 text messages, the Daily Mail reported.
