Call on Apple to add emojis representing all LGBTQ+ labels.


Call on Apple to add emojis representing all LGBTQ+ labels.
The Issue
Dear Apple,
As a company that values inclusivity and diversity, we urge you to add the flags of all labels within the LGBTQ+ community to your keyboard. The current lack of representation for these labels’ specific flags is unacceptable and sends a message that their respective communities are not important.
According to a study by the Williams Institute, approximately 1.8% of adults in the United States identify as bisexual. This may seem like a small percentage, but it still amounts to millions of people who deserve to see themselves represented in the digital world. The same goes for all other labels. (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, etc.)
Furthermore, social media platforms such as Twitter and Instagram have already added emojis like the bisexual flag to their keyboards. It's time for Apple to catch up and show support for these marginalized groups.
Adding these flag emojis would not only be an act of inclusivity but also help raise awareness about these labels and combat harmful stereotypes surrounding them.
We understand that there are many emojis available on your keyboard, but adding these would make all the difference for those who feel invisible without proper representation.
Please take action now and add all respective LGBTQ+ flag emojis to your keyboard. Let's work together towards creating an inclusive digital world where everyone feels seen and valued.
Sincerely,
Christian
