iPhone update adds 'pregnant man' emoji, other gender neutral cartoons

A recent software update for Apple's iPhones includes a "pregnant man" emoji as well as a number of other gender neutral cartoons.

Apple rolled out the update in mid-March according to the Wall Street Journal, adding the pregnant emoji, as well as a gender neutral "person with crown" emoji to go alongside the king and queen cartoons. Apple also added 35 other emojis.

Apple first rolled out the pregnant man and "pregnant person" emoji in January as part of an optional update, but it came to all users with the iOS 15.4 update.

The decision to roll out the new emoji was met with criticism and mockery from many conservatives. Fox News Host Greg Gutfield praised the emoji as a step toward acceptance for men with ‘beer guts.’

Well, of course it does, it is the most favored homosexual brand, after all.

Wait til you see the “woman with penis” emoji.

People forget about the other half of the trans mental illness crowd.

Kudos to Apple for giving the mentally ill another means to self-identify.

Someone called it the emoji that shows a pot-belly or beer-belly man.

Chinese third graders are learning multi-variable calculus. American third graders are being taught that men can have babies. Who do you think is going to do well in the global economy in the decades to come?

If these emojis imply pregnancy rather than as Gutfield says beer guts I guess they join the unicorn ones they have.

It looks more like “home of the cowards” not “home of the brave.” Stop caving to woke insanity.

A “pregnant man” is not “ gender neutral”, it denies the notion of gender at all.

Y'all are likely correct re similar perverse crap showing up on Android eventually, so consider me scolded. However, my main reason for avoiding Apple is their being absurdly overpriced, along with a personal helping of curmudgeonliness  ;-)

I wonder why it’s just white and blond...

Could it be that Black people don’t fall for this crap?
