Gender-inclusive emojis for all!
One of the most highlighted and highest number of new emojis on the Unicode is with connection with gender-inclusive emojis. In the sample pictures, you can now express total love for the LGBT community with the approved transgender flag and symbol. A gender-inclusive person wearing a wedding veil, wearing a tuxedo, or even gender-neutral person that feeds baby with a bottle -- which Google personally proposed-- are also part of the final cut.

"Until this year, the only emoji that depicts childcare is the 'breastfeeding' emoji," explained Jennifer Daniel, Google's design director for the Android Emoji Program. "Since an inability to breastfeed doesn't preclude you from nurturing your child, we want to introduce an emoji that everyone can use," she said.
Choose from variants of skin-tone emojis
Meanwhile, skin-tone options for emojis are also now included in the list-making sure that all races in the world can be recognized through simple chats and messages in social media.
