Man standing: medium-dark skin tone Emoji
People
A full-body depiction of a man with medium-dark skin standing upright with his arms relaxed at his sides. He is facing forward in a neutral, static pose.
Usage Context
This emoji is used to represent someone waiting in line, standing still, or to indicate a person's presence in a specific location. It acts as a more specific alternative to the generic 👤 silhouette or the 🧍 gender-neutral standing person. Users often employ it to signal they are ready for action or simply to denote their current state of being upright.
History
The standing man was added to the Unicode standard in 2019 as part of Emoji 12.0. The development of diverse skin tone modifiers follows the 2015 introduction of the Fitzpatrick scale, allowing for greater demographic representation across digital messaging platforms.
