Title:
Heartbreaking
WeChat
Nicknames
for
Boys As
social
media
platforms
become
an
essential
part
of
our
daily
life,
so
are
online
nicknames.
Especially
for
boys
who
may
not
express
their
feelings
in
person
due
to
societal
pressures,
they
often
use
WeChat
nicknames
to
show
their
emotions. The
internet
has
become
a
place
to
both
expose
and
conceal
one's
true
identity.
Boys
can
find
solace
in
sharing
their
emotions
online
when
they
may
not
be
able
to
express
themselves
in
reality.
The
psychological
benefit
of
expressing
these
feelings
through
online
communities
can
be
significant. However,
the
downside
of
emotional
vulnerability
is
the
possibility
of
negative
feedback
or
cyberbullying.
Boys
who
choose
to
be
vulnerable
run
the
risk
of
attracting
negative
attention,
which
can
lead
to

feelings
of
shame
and
isolation. For
some
boys,
their
loving
and
caring
side
is
only
displayed
through
anonymized
online
identities.
It
is
in
these
spaces
where
they
can
feel
demurred,
empowered
to
show
their
wistful,
affectionate,
and
sensitive
sides. In
conclusion,
online
nicknames
symbolize
the
strength
of
the
power
of
words.
Boys
use
WeChat
nicknames
as
a
tool
for
self-reflection,
but
it
is
up
to
us
as
individuals
and
as
a
society
to
create
spaces
that
encourage
expressing
vulnerability.
In
this
way,
we
can
support
boys
to
learn
about
their
emotions,
and
we
can
foster
a
culture
of
emotional
intelligence
and
empathy.
