What ♀️ means

The Venus symbol, a circle with a cross below. It stands for female, women, or womanhood.

People use ♀️ in posts about women's health, feminism, women's sports and biology. It also has a hidden job: joined to a person emoji, it turns 🏃 into 🏃‍♀️, a woman running.

A stray ♀️ after a person emoji usually means the device could not join the two into one picture.
