The internet slang term “Emily” is used as shorthand to refer to a person who is overly sensitive and easily offended. This term is often used to describe someone who tends to take things personally or reacts strongly to even the smallest criticism or jokes. It is derived from the stereotype of people named Emily being sensitive individuals.
Examples:
1. After I posted a lighthearted joke on social media, Emily commented, saying I was being offensive and insensitive. She completely misunderstood the intention behind the joke.
2. During a group chat, when I shared my opinion about a controversial topic, Emily got upset immediately, accusing me of attacking her beliefs. She really lives up to the stereotype of being an “Emily”.
Synonyms:
Em, Emz, Emmy, Emi
