Why cap emoji support at 2018 instead of drawing the 150 characters? (If you want, I’ll draw them for you when I have free time in early October.) 🥻🩵🦻🧑🦽 They feature cultural clothing, people with disabilities and more colored squares & hearts to make pride flags out of.
Anyway, what are those MOGAI & Tumblr pride flag & pronoun characters’ codes? Private use area? Is there a standard or just a first-come-first-served basis?
I mean, the base form (substantivum) of my Czech pronoun kinda is in Unicode (🔛) but nobody would understand what I mean if I tagged myself with it. Also, nobody ever “asks for pronouns” in Czech (my answer would be on/něj/jemu/ho/-/něm/ním but still would not cover all Czech grammatical gender shenanigans like adjective/verb endings) so Czechs just have to pick one of the existing ones (♂️/♀️ only), which is not ideal but at least they have a standard Unicode representation.
