May depend on what device you’re using, can confirm Samsung does this
My iPhone shows three options 🤷🤷♀️🤷♂️
Are the colors meant for gender?
Yes, orange = neutral, purple = female, blue = male. They just did it like that
But the orange one looks exactly the same as the blue one.
The hair is styled differently.
These come from the fonts on your device - there isn’t some “official” image for each, just what code point is what
But how did they assign the various colors to genders? I mean, they don’t even know the color of my dick…
It’s stereotypes all the way down.
They look orange, purple, and green to me

Getting all of them on Pixel, too
Another reason to switch to iPhone I guess. I was compelled by their recent announcement that they’re switching to recycled cobalt (which is more sustainable and doesn’t use child labour) by 2025, which might make them the only major smartphone company to do so. Fairphone is another option as far as that goes.
All of their planned obsolescence and anti right to repair practices far outweigh any other sustainability changes they’ve made.
Could someone explain why the downvotes? Lol
On android here, an du have never had that issue. 🤷🤷♀️🤷♂️
Also on that note, I did have a suspicion that it was a gender neutral reason but had never been able to differentiate between the male and the gender neutral. I have actually been using that the whole time even though I am a he/him cis straight 🤷
Which application? Device? OS?
Samsung keyboard on One UI (Samsung’s version of Android), throughout all apps. Samsung Galaxy S22
There’s your problem. Gender neutral is first in Gboard. 🤷
You could actually download Gboard from the play store if it isn’t already bundled with your phone.
Try install a different keyboard. I’m using Microsoft SwiftKey and it gives access to all variations of the emoji with a long press 🤷♂️
Thanks, but I can get that too, it’s just when you use the search bar to type in a term, like “shrug”, " tipping hand", “kneeling”, “massage”, or “haircut”, that it only displays the male and female forms (for me). I’m using Samsung Keyboard because it allows for some good clipboard features that others don’t, unfortunately.
Shows all the options on iPhone, on all the keyboards I have installed.
🤷🤷♀️🤷♂️
I get each one on iOS.
With Gboard, you can even change the color.

🤷♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏿♂️Gboard is missing a bunch of other emojis and is slow as fuck to add new ones though
SwiftKey is far better for emojis, Gboard is better for languages, otherwise they’re around the same
I have all the last emojis in Gboard. Gboard use the set of emoji of your version of Android. Google did a change this year to accelerate the deployment of the emojis on Gboard through the play services.
SwiftKey use its own set of emojis. I guess.
Mine only shows one, because I have to long press on it to display all of the variants.
I don’t get the gender neutral either (using Gboard on an older Android). Which is a bit odd because as far as I can tell gender neutral is the base character, and the male and female versions are customisations that are applied as if they were accented characters.
I’d rather have them all as no-gender, no-race, generic little yellow peeps but eh…
