HOW TO WRITE/TYPE Female SIGN EMOJIS/SYMBOLS ON KEYBOARD- ALT + 12

In today’s article, you’ll learn how to use some keyboard shortcuts plus other methods to type the female sign emoji/symbol in MS Word/Excel using either Windows or Mac.

WHAT DOES THE FEMALE SIGN EMOJI MEAN?

The female sign emoji represents feminine gender and female birth sex identities and expressions, often used online or in texts to champion feminism and women’s empowerment. The female sign emoji can be paired with others, such as the woman emoji, to celebrate international women’s day, which falls on March 8 each year.

However, if you just want to type female sign emoji/symbol on your keyboard, then I’m going to teach you how you can do this using your keyboard by following simple steps.

WHO USES THE FEMALE SIGN EMOJI?

Very often online, the female sign emoji simply displays after another emoji character because the full-fledged woman emoji isn’t supported on the platform. In some instances, this may appear redundant because the default emoji person is already a woman.

When used alone, the female sign emoji may mark content expressing feminine pride and feminist solidarity, notably used in the January 2017 women’s marches around the world and in the wake of the #MeToo movement exposing sexual violence and assault against women.

The female sign emoji is also used to mark international women’s day, which has been commemorated since 1911. Held on March 8, the day gives visibility to issues of women’s equality and gender parity, while also bringing attention to charities and women’s achievements.
