A “pregnant man” emoji, as well as a number of other gender-neutral cartoons, were included in a recent software update for Apple’s iPhones.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Apple released the update in mid-March, which included the pregnant emoji as well as a gender-neutral “person with crown” emoji to complement the king and queen animations. Apple also added 35 new emojis to the mix.

The pregnant man and “pregnant person” emojis were first released in January as part of an optional update, but they were made available to all users with the iOS 15.4 update.

The new iPhone update has a “pregnant man” emoji. Thankfully they didn’t go with the original plan to just go with a picture of Ted Cruz. pic.twitter.com/pODdYpWM9S
