You read the title correctly. I saw this story the other day and all I can do is shake my head. Unbelievable.
The next set of emojis, which includes 15 handshake combinations to represent variants of race as well as a pregnant man, are among a list that could be approved later in 2021.
The emojis are drafts and could be changed prior to their final approval on Sept. 14, according to an Emojipedia blog on Wednesday.
“Pregnant Man and Pregnant Person are new, and recognize that pregnancy is possible for some transgender men and non-binary people. These are additions to the existing Pregnant Woman emoji,”
Going back to enjoy my birds and flowers now.

If I would have spotted that emoji without knowing, I would have mistaken it to be a man with a potbelly. And maybe I would have used it at wrong place to tease some close friend and family who don't mind such teasing
You actually saved me from that embarassment

Why, just why? I'm not sure I want to know the answer to that. Unbelieable.

To be fair...
They have a Santa Claus one too and he doesn't exist either.

It's ok with me if some people want to pretend but it's insulting to me when I'm told that I have to pretend too.

I think that’s kind of cool. If some is trans or non binary they have more options to pick from what they want to represent them as an individual person. I don’t think we need more hand shakes. I do enjoy the animal ones ??

@CarolDM why is absurd if a transfemale see them selves as male to not be able to choice which pregnant icon fits them better or the lack of some members of society the way you see yourself you can depicted with a silly little emoji. I know if I pick one of those I can pick skin color, I can also pick different ages of child’s skin colors as well as a group of kids but they don’t have one where I pick one two little white kids and one little Hispanic kid. I can also choice gender child emoji. I can even pick one that depicts I’m a member of being bi but they don’t have an upside pineapple or the heart with the infinity sign

I don't think they have meaning, they are just a disguise

Is this really necessary? This is carrying equality a little too far.
