And particularly with sex, we felt that it was so crucial that everyone feel sexually represented. My friends and I are not accurately represented in emoji, and it’s frustrating. It looks like you put a lot of thought into including different races, kinks, and sexual orientations. I’m not surprised that you discussed hair in that way because from what I can tell, Flirtmoji seems really sex-positive and diverse. "Hair has actually been really contentious and funny - and also a major design issue." But we do have a few new ones that have hair, and we’re working on it. I think it’s really important, and actually making it come across has been incredibly difficult. Hair has actually been really contentious and funny and also a major design issue, all while being a major conceptual necessity to all of us. I’m really glad you’re bringing that up because I feel like I’m being held accountable for that.

Right, so I noticed that the free set of Flirtmoji don’t have hair, and I was wondering about that decision. Well yea that’s a whole other conversation, because how do you make hair in simple line strokes? Everyone looked at them, everyone talked about them, everyone had their two cents, and then being the only woman in a group of guys discussing body parts, obviously there are moments that are a little hairy, but… The boobs, in particular, were really hashed out. Well, I did draw them! And that’s so beautiful, coming from another woman, that she saw that. She said that men don’t tend to draw breasts like that.
I showed some of the Flirtmoji to a friend, and she wasn’t surprised when I told her that you’re a woman. We realized that we needed to do this, to draw up sex as icons, and make it completely comprehensive, funny, and diverse. But the game-changer came because one of the guys in the group was having really elaborate texting engagement back and forth with a long distance girlfriend. All four of us had experience with jokingly and poorly substituting the existing emojis into text conversations to try to communicate sex, and it never worked.
