Of course, if you followed the movement to get a trans pride flag approved by Unicode, the story of the bisexual pride flag emoji will sound familiar. The battle for a trans pride flag emoji shows what it takes to get LGBTQ representation in emojis. The flag's first public appearance occurred at the 1978 Gay Freedom Day Parade and the Rainbow became a symbol of Gay Pride during the Gay Movement.
But considering petitioners for the emoji has made it clear that a lack of bisexual representation contributes to the mental health problems of this group, it’s possible that Unicode and bisexual activists have a different definition of what “compelling evidence” means. What Unicode does recommend for approval is making group submissions and offering compelling evidence. Note 1: The International Bear Brotherhood is also known as the gay flag or gay men’s flag. The hexadecimal, RGB and CMYK codes are in the table. According to statistics compiled by Unicode, flags are among the least used emojis which may explain Unicode’s unwillingness to concentrate their efforts on this category. The colors in the flag are represent the colors of animal furs from around the world (from the top) dark brown, rust, golden yellow, tan, white, grey and black. Statistical evidence is definitely favored by the organization. The Unicode website states: “The submission and selection process isn't affected by simple suggestions, nor by petitions, nor by letters/tweets from celebrities/government officials.”
