Are flesh colored emojis the new annoucing your pronouns?

Seems like for 20 plus years we were all content to use the standard yellow emoji color to express our feelings on social media posts.

Suddenly, everyone is using flesh tone emojis in social media responses.

What gives?

Nah. Just an option. You’re thinking too much about this.

And who cares about pronouns? It ain’t worth the headache.

When they change the color of eggplant emojis and peach emojis, then that might be saying something.

@BillyMack My point about mentioning pronouns is as follows:

I noticed all of a sudden, a LOT of people putting their pronouns in their signatures. It just started happening.

I noticed the same with the emojis.

@SumKindaMunster yeah I see what you mean. As long as it’s not mandated, doesn’t bother me.

But I will say the emojis are more inclusive to me. I have plenty of friends who use the various ones.

All good.

@BillyMack Thanks for your comments.

Idk. I always use the yellow ones and don't go out of my way to let everyone know I'm white. 🙄 I really don't see the relevancy.

After 20 years, some clever emoji creator developed an emoji pop-up on SOME emojis, giving us a color choice! Apparently the emoji creator is very color conscious!
