STILL there is no white wine emoji, what misogyny is this?!

[SteelyEyed]

So they've announced the latest round of emojis to be added to our phones, apparently we'll get an apple core and a radish and seriously, they are scraping the barrel for emojis that people might need... there's 50 thousand emojis of people of every shade running left.. and running right, like that makes a difference... and walking with a walking stick pointed left... and pointing right...

but THERE IS NO WHITE WINE EMOJI

Only red wine and champagne and they are Not The Same. As women are the biggest drinkers of white wine (and it's nearly 5pm on a Friday) I am calling this out , it's clearly misogyny and sexism and vile anti-women behaviour from big tech. I bloody want a ww emoji!!

I’d say your desperate need for a white wine emoji, and the count down to 5pm, speaks volumes.

White wine sucks. I do want cookery emojis, though. Why are there loads of food emojis, but nothing to cook them on/with? Loads of hobby equipment emojis, but nothing for a basic task which billions of people do every day? Why can I count 15 different ball sport emojis when there's no frying pan?

I started on the white at 1pm. No shits given about what that says to you

I had not noticed the lack of white wine emoji. Now I'm just going to be sad every single time I send a wine emoji to my BFF.

🙄

@Simplox isn't there an egg in a fryng pan emoji?

I am always shocked by what there is and what there is not.
It's almost impossible to have an actual emoji conversation these days.
😥

There still isn’t a brunette with fair skin, either!

Yes, fair enough, but that's no good unless I'm fryng eggs! The other 99% of the time I'm cooking then an egg-frying emoji is just misleading...

Where can I find the list?

Oh give over!

Stuff 5pm on a Friday, I went for 3:45pm. Logged in to a client live system database too. What could possibly go wrong. 🤔🤔

I couldn’t find a sausage.
But that’s another story Phnarr

🥂🥂🥂

🤷🏻‍♀️ what do you mean?!

👏👏👏

Well currently 35% of the tech workforce is made up of women so perhaps they just aren’t keen on white wine?

I want a rose wine one it's far superior

and a vodka redbull one for my late night messages

I came to see how soon mn would accuse you of being an alcoholic. FIRST POST! You win mn today @Oldhabitsarehardtobreak

🥘 🍳 🥣🍽️ that’s as bout as good as my cooking emojis get lol

Fair point

🧂🍋‍🟩🇲🇽 no shits given

No decent emojis for House Breaking tools either.

A hammer, a ladder and a spade are for amateurs, but no good for the professionals who take pride in their blags. 😡

Heh :) You can propose a new emoji https://unicode.org/emoji/proposals.html
Or in the interim use ◻️🍷
