Kiss: woman, man Emoji

People

A composite emoji displaying a man and a woman leaning in to share a kiss, accented by a small red heart floating between them. This sequence combines individual character gender representations with a heart symbol to create a unified romantic scene.

Usage Context

Used to express affection, confirm a date, or celebrate a relationship anniversary. It is a digital shorthand for sending a kiss through text or social media. It is frequently paired with other romantic indicators like ❤️ or 😘 to emphasize the strength of the sentiment.

History

This emoji was created using the ZWJ (Zero Width Joiner) sequence, which allows systems to combine multiple existing characters into a single rendered image. This method was adopted by Unicode to expand the variety of human-centered emojis without needing to assign a unique code point for every possible combination of people.
