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.’
