Why is there the 🫃🏻 (pregnant man) emoji?help
Hello people, I found this emoji because I was searching an emoji to represent someone praying because I sent a friend a famous religious text but in Ancient Greek, then after sending the text to my friend I immediately questioned myself why does that emoji exist, there are also a pregnant woman (or expecting woman) emoji (duh) and a pregnant person emoji, this last one is theorically a neutral gender emoji, right? But why is there a pregnant man emoji???

i believe its to show a pregnant trans man, or also sometimes called "seahorse dads" (which personally i find that little name pretty adorable).

Maybe it's just a fat man and they thought it would be more polite to call him pregnant instead of fat.
You could also put a baby into a man surgically...

I guess it's for FtMs who can still have babies? But I'm like 90% sure taking testosterone would make having a baby impossible, or cause a bunch of birth defects lol. Trans people are valid and i support them but this is sort of ridiculous imo.

worth noting some transmen dont take testosterone for financial/medical/personal reasons so theoretically they wouldnt have trouble getting pregnant.
youre right that high testosterone usually reduces a person's fertility and can cause pregnancy complications yeah. it is still possible for transmen on T to get pregnant though. sometimes a trans guy wants to have a baby so he stops taking hormones for a bit and can just continue it after the pregnancy.
ultimately a pregnant man is still pretty rare but i guess its nice to give those few guys out there an emoji lol

It is the most reasonable explanation fr
I am neutral about LGBT+, I don't have problems in supporting them (and have some trans friends online) but yeah, this is kinda ridiculous lol, but it's specially confusing.

Ah, sorry for the late reply.
I see what you mean, I'm sorry if I came off as offensive, I didn't mean to be Inconsiderate.

I believe the man pictured in the emoji is a biological female but has transitioned from female to male, but hasn't had surgery/become pregnant by natural means.
