person 🧑 - OzVoca Emoji Details
person
This emoji means 'person' or 'adult' without specifying gender or age. You can use it when describing a job or a role.
It's a neutral emoji that can represent all people without distinguishing between men and women. For example, it's convenient for referring to everyone, like 'our team members 🧑'.
This emoji was created as an alternative to use when the 👨 (man) or 👩 (woman) emojis provide unnecessary gender information. It's used as the base for profession emojis (e.g., 🧑⚕️ health worker) to emphasize the role.
This emoji is a prime example of the effort to increase inclusivity. It's also an expression of respect for those who don't wish to reveal their gender or who don't fit into the gender binary, such as non-binary people. In this way, emojis are becoming a communication tool that captures society's changing values.
