Woman

An adult woman with shoulder-length hair, usually shown with a friendly or neutral expression.

The 👩 Woman emoji symbolizes a female adult or feminine-presenting person. It’s commonly used to refer to friends, mothers, sisters, coworkers, or women in general. It also appears in many professions (👩‍⚕️ doctor, 👩‍🍳 chef) and family combinations.

Depending on context, it can be used seriously (in discussions of identity, gender, or relationships) or playfully to describe mood, personality, or typical “girl behavior.” It is also widely used in digital culture to celebrate or represent femininity.

Younger users might use 👩 to illustrate confident, independent personas—or flip it for irony. Older users tend to use it straightforwardly in gender-specific references.
