A ten-year-old boy started a petition with the aim of convincing the Apple to change the design of the emoji the “nerd” (????). Featuring large glasses and very prominent teeth, the emoji is seen by the boy as “offensive and insulting” to people who wear glasses.
In an interview with BBClittle Teddy, a resident of the English county of Oxfordshire, expressed serious concern about the issue, stating that “Apple is making this absolutely horrible for people who wear glasses”, who would be mistaken for nerds by others.
“This is making me sad and upset, and if I find it offensive, there will be thousands of people around the world who will also find it offensive,” he commented, who had the idea to start the campaign after observing the emoji better during a messaging conversation. with your cousin.
By sharing his concerns with a teacher, he was encouraged and helped to start the online petition. Praised by the professional for his curiosity and perseverance, Teddy even proposed a solution to solve the problem: a new emoji designed by himself.
“It has thin lenses and thin frames… and then it has a smiling face instead of the horrible rabbit teeth”, explained the little one, who believes it would be incredible if Apple took his idea forward. “I would be so excited,” he highlighted during the conversation.
