Random, per my usual self, but I have to wonder if any of those cave writings from back in the day were Cavemen sexting secret lovers or something wild like that. I mean, (hu)man is (hu)man, and sex is sex, no matter the time period, right? Especially because I'm not narcissistic enough to think that signaling for sex through pictograms is anything new...like everything else it's just been slightly adapted to fit a new age.
Sex Emojis: 14 Dirty Emojis For Your Sexy Text Conversations
Once Apple dropped emojis, they couldn't have imagined that adults around the world would take a completely innocent but odd (because who the hell actually was eating eggplant in 2008?) set of emojis and adapt them in order to minimize the wordiness of sexting and maximize efforts.
Nevertheless, we managed to create an entirely new language, generally and sexually speaking, all through the emoji keyboard. However, if you're like me and you actually do enjoy the act of sending off sexy texts, then you might look at your sex emojis games as an easy, fun way to enhance your sexting experience. Whether you're looking to minimize words and maximize time or maximize the impact of your sext, these are the 14 sex emojis you need to keep in your favorites.
1.Eggplant + Sweat Droplet Emoji

Most of us know the meaning behind the eggplant and the sweat droplets emoji combo. A classic "let me get your dick wet" indeed.
2.Whale Spouting Emoji

Because, you know, "pussy wet her and exhale"... or whatever Caresha said on "Pussy Talk".
3.Cat Emoji

Cat emojis can have different meanings in texts. Sexually, it means bring the wine and I'll bring this kitty.
4."See No Evil" Monkey Emoji

I'm not blushing, you are. I'm not giddy, boo you are! Nothing says excitement like the see no evil monkey emoji.
5.Surfer Girl Emoji
In the immortal words of Beyonce, we can't wait to ride the dick, straight like... surfboard, surfboard.
6.Shushing Face Emoji

A tap out for sure! The shushing dirty emoji means less "dirty" talk, more action. Come and see me now, I can't take anymore.
7.Drooling Face Emoji

The meaning behind the drooling face emoji is "what this mouth will do soon as I get the chance".
8.Devil Emoji

If "lady in the street, freak in the sheets" were an emoji, it would be the devil emoji.
9.Smirk Face Emoji

You already know what time it is. Bring that ass.
10.Peach Emoji

Very similar to the cat emoji in context and not necessarily indicative of anal play, but using the peach emoji in dirty texts can be. Especially if they drop an index finger with the peach.
11."Oh" Face Emoji
"Finish her!" *Mortal Kombat video game narrator voice*
12.Banana Emoji

I'm almost positive the banana emoji hasn't been around forever, which is why we had to improvise with the eggplant. Nevertheless, the banana emoji is eggplant 2.0. Perhaps, an indicator of a little curvage.
13.Rain + Umbrella Emoji
Shutterstock
More wet-wet, anyone? That's exactly what it means when the raining umbrella emoji enters the chat.
14. Gymnast Girl Emoji
The gymnast girl emoji is emoticon for "acrobat on the dick" energy. You know the vibes.

Eva Marcille On Starring In 'Jason’s Lyric Live' & Being An Audacious Black Woman
Eva Marcille has taken her talents to the stage. The model-turned-actress is starring in her first play, Jason’s Lyric Live alongside Allen Payne, K. Michelle, Treach, and others.
The play, produced by Je’Caryous Johnson, is an adaptation of the film, which starred Allen Payne as Jason and Jada Pinkett Smith as Lyric. Allen reprised his role as Jason for the play and Eva plays Lyric.
While speaking to xoNecole, Eva shares that she’s a lot like the beloved 1994 character in many ways. “Lyric is so me. She's the odd flower. A flower nonetheless, but definitely not a peony,” she tells us.
“She's not the average flower you see presented, and so she reminds me of myself. I'm a sunflower, beautiful, but different. And what I loved about her character then, and even more so now, is that she was very sure of herself.
"Sure of what she wanted in life and okay to sacrifice her moments right now, to get what she knew she deserved later. And that is me. I'm not an instant gratification kind of a person. I am a long game. I'm not a sprinter, I'm a marathon.
America first fell in love with Eva when she graced our screens on cycle 3 of America’s Next Top Model in 2004, which she emerged as the winner. Since then, she's ventured into different avenues, from acting on various TV series like House of Payne to starring on Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Je-Caryous Johnson Entertainment
Eva praises her castmates and the play’s producer, Je’Caryous for her positive experience. “You know what? Je’Caryous fuels my audacity car daily, ‘cause I consider myself an extremely audacious woman, and I believe in what I know, even if no one else knows it, because God gave it to me. So I know what I know. That is who Je’Caryous is.”
But the mom of three isn’t the only one in the family who enjoys acting. Eva reveals her daughter Marley has also caught the acting bug.
“It is the most adorable thing you can ever see. She’s got a part in her school play. She's in her chorus, and she loves it,” she says. “I don't know if she loves it, because it's like, mommy does it, so maybe I should do it, but there is something about her.”
Overall, Eva hopes that her contribution to the role and the play as a whole serves as motivation for others to reach for the stars.
“I want them to walk out with hope. I want them to re-vision their dreams. Whatever they were. Whatever they are. To re-see them and then have that thing inside of them say, ‘You know what? I'm going to do that. Whatever dream you put on the back burner, go pick it up.
"Whatever dream you've accomplished, make a new dream, but continue to reach for the stars. Continue to reach for what is beyond what people say we can do, especially as [a] Black collective but especially as Black women. When it comes to us and who we are and what we accept and what we're worth, it's not about having seen it before. It's about knowing that I deserve it.”

The first time I heard about burn journaling was during my interview with Dreka Gates. She shared a self-care practice a holistic doctor recommended involving writing “whatever is pissing me off” and then burning the paper afterwards. According to the model, burning the page neutralizes the negative energy.
This practice piqued my interest, so I decided to do some research. I ran across a few articles about the practice and what exactly it entails. However, I soon remembered that I actually practiced burn journaling over a year ago and again last year.
The first time I did it, I was among a group of ladies and we were encouraged to write down our feelings in our journals. Afterwards, we huddled around and one by one burned our pages with some ladies even revealing what they wrote. It was a beautiful moment and a great way to support each other.
The second time I did burn journaling, I was by myself. I was reading Calling In The One and one of the practices involved writing down the things I wanted to let go of and burning it. I had Cleo Sol’s “Know That You Are Loved” playing in the background on repeat while I burned the pages in my apartment bathroom.
What Does Burn Journaling Do?
Based on my experience and others' explanations, burn journaling is a cathartic practice. The act of burning serves as an emotional release of past traumas, old thoughts, and negative feelings. It’s also a way to say goodbye and/ or forgive.
Types of Burn Journaling
There are different examples of burn journaling: Burning journals after writing, burning letters and burning lists.
Burn Journals
As stated before, you can write in a journal and burn it afterwards. It’s up to you if you burn it page by page or wait until you fill the journal up and burn it altogether. There are journals you can buy for the sole purpose of burning them afterwards.

Burn Lists
This technique involves writing a list of things you want to let go of and then burning it. Burning the list symbolizes the release of those things.
Burn Letters
Another example are burn letters. For this technique, you write a letter to someone that you either want to forgive or let go of, but instead of sending it to them, you burn it.
Safety Precautions
If you do decide to try this practice, make sure to be safe. Use a fireproof bowl for burning and never leave it unattended. Alternatively, you can shred the pages.
If you’re in Atlanta and want to try burn journaling, meet me this Sunday for Burn Journaling & Walk.
