  1. [1] It’s super commonly used for sexting, so if you’ve received an eggplant emoji, look out for other sexual emojis and phrases to help you decide if it's part of a dirty text. Because of the eggplant’s scorching associations, it was banned from major social media sites—but it’s still commonly used in private conversations.
    • If the eggplant is sent with sexual text or emojis, then it’s referring to a man’s penis: “You make me so hot 👅💦🍆🍆.”
    • If it’s sent along with info on gardening or salads, it probably refers to a literal eggplant in a non-dirty context: “My salad today is so delish. 🍆🥦🫑”

How can I respond to the 🍆 (eggplant) emoji?

  1. If you don’t want to include specifics, send a combo of these emojis to make it clear you're aroused: 😩😫😰🥵🤯. Send them on their own or include a sultry description of how you’re feeling, what you’re thinking, or what you want to do to the person you're texting. You'll have your text's recipient sweating.
    • “That’s so hot 😩😩”
    • “You’ve definitely got my mind racing…🥵😫”
    • “I can’t wait until I see you in person next…😰😩”
  2. To keep the ball rolling, describe where and how you want to touch the person you're texting. Want to get really spicy? Pair the touching emojis with an emoji that describes a certain body part. This way, the recipient will know exactly where you'd like to touch them—making for a seriously sexy convo.
    • “You know what I really want to do right now? 😏…✋🍑”
    • “I can’t wait to see you and, you know…👉🌮”
    • “I’m trying to work but I can’t stop imagining you…✋🌭”
  3. Throw in the 👅 (tongue), 👄 ( lips ), and 😛 (licking) emojis, and you'll have your text's recipient weak at the knees.
    • “The next time we see each other, it’s on. 👉✌️🌮🌶💦🥵”
    • “You seriously turn me on…👅🦴🍌🤯😫🎆”
    • If you’d rather not describe a specific action, feel free to use the sexual emojis in an unspecific order: “🎆🔨👄🥠🍯😰👉😛💥." This will still turn up the heat!
  4. The phrase "Netflix and chill” refers to movie-watching paired with a potential hookup. If your sexts are getting hot and you want to meet up, invite them over using these: 🎬❄️.
    • The 🎬 (clapperboard) refers to the movie-watching, and the ❄️ ( snowflake ) refers to "chilling."
    • “I definitely got the message there 😰. Want to come over? 🎬❄️”
    • “Come over. I think we’d have fun…🎬❄️”
    • “Let’s watch a movie and do…other stuff 😉🎬❄️”
  5. Booty calls refer to a (usually casual) offer to hook up. If you see the 🍆 (eggplant) emoji and you really want to get intimate with this person, send them the emoji phrase that's code for “booty call:” 🍑📞.
    • “I know it’s kinda late, but what do you think? 🍑📞😉”
    • “Your texts are really getting to me…I gotta ask, you free? 🍑📞😰”
    • Or, send just the emojis to get your message across: “🍑📞.”
  6. If you want the other person to know that you’re interested in having sex, send these two together. Of course, it goes without saying that this text is by no means a promise to hook up. Have fun, send sexy texts to turn the two of you on, but don't feel tied to anything you sext. Texting someone a sultry text does not mean you're agreeing to anything.
    • “Okay you’ve got my attention…👉👌🤯”
    • “Oof. That was hot…👉👌🎆”
    • “I’m so into you…👉👌💦💦”
  7. You don't need to include emojis in your response to the eggplant emoji. Send a text that describes how the other person's message made you feel, what you want to do with them sexually, or physical signs of arousal happening in your body. If you aim to keep the enticing convo going, finish with a question to prompt them to continue. [2]
    • "You're making me feel really turned on...if we were together, where would you touch me next?"
    • "I wish I could touch you right now...how is this conversation making you feel?"
    • "I'm sweating...what are you thinking about rn? Be specific..."
