Summary | Philippe Brenot has been studying people's ways of sharing love for more than thirty years. He noticed some gender differences; for instance, women like to save love letters close to themselves whereas men save theirs in binders. Moreover, women don't write about their lover's body, whereas descriptions of female bodies are omnipresent in men's letters. However, in text messages, women are more likely to be straightforward. Brenot claims that love letters are not disappearing with new technologies. People still send each other love messages and save them.

Summary | Today's emojis don't really represent women in a fair way (dancer, princess, or grandmother). Therefore, Google is going to include peasant women, teachers or doctors, for example. But since the idea is to better represent minorities, perhaps the Bogdanov brothers and Conchita Wurst will complain about the lack of "mutant" emojis.
