Completely random topic but…
I tend to use smiley faces when corresponding through e-mail.
I might drop a “:)” or a “:-)” and even the occasional “:-o”. As a guy who tries to be open and honest about my emotions, I’ve never found this to be a problem when speaking to male or female friends. However, a friend of mine asked me to stop using smileys because he didn’t think it was manly. He used a different phraseology but you get the picture.
What do others think? Is a guy using smileys not manly?
