Uwu envy

Uwu envy is essentially the same concept as Freud's penis envy, but applied to modern society's fixation with cuteness. Individuals experiencing uwu envy may harbor a sense of inferiority, where they subconsciously (or consciously) covet others who effortlessly exude the cute and innocent aesthetic of 'uwu.' It may initially manifest as a state of being intimidated or even a feeling of resentment towards those who fit the uwu aesthetic, often due to feeling out of the loop or disconnected from popular internet culture and the trends associated with it.

Unlike penis envy though, uwu envy is very easy to overcome. Overcoming one's uwu envy may involve a strong desire to assimilate the physical attributes, mannerisms, or online presence associated with cuteness, and may drive individuals to engage in attention-seeking behavior or adopt an infantile or anime-influenced aesthetic as a means of validation. More often than not, this typically involves changing your profile pic to a cute anime girl and using cute phrases and emojis such as ':3' and 'rawr'. Those with uwu envy are indistinguishable from those who genuinely co-opt uwu culture, the only difference being that, deep down, individuals with uwu envy do it as a sort of psychological compensatory mechanism.

Uwu envy is the troubling reflection of a young generation that prioritizes surface-level appearances over genuine self-acceptance, self-expression and emotional maturity, perpetuating a shallow aesthetics-based culture.
EXAMPLE 1:
Person A: I noticed that Sarah changed her profile picture to a cute anime girl and is always using 'uwu' in her messages. It's like she's trying so hard to be cute all the time.
Person B: Yeah, she's got a serious case of uwu envy.
_______________

EXAMPLE 2: Me. I have uwu envy.

Maya Envy

The sudden possessive urge for a man (or woman) who is displaying attention or feelings to the object of their affection. This envy stems from wanting to receive similar attention.
Thursday, a man admired for his steadfastness, courage, and chivalry waved his hand to bid farewell to the friends he would be separated from, but one stood out most.

“Bye, Maya.” he called her by name, and his voice carried the sentiment of the days they shared.

With bittersweet joy displayed in her eyes, Maya waved back and said, “alright, thank you.”

And we watching the exchange wished Thursday would call our names too… we were all filled with Maya Envy.
