Man swimming: dark skin tone Emoji
People
A man with dark skin performing a front crawl stroke, shown mid-movement as he glides through the water. He is typically depicted wearing blue swimming trunks and occasionally a swim cap.
Usage Context
Used to discuss fitness, training, or vacation plans involving a pool or the ocean. It is frequently sent as a shorthand for athletic commitment, such as training for a triathlon, or simply to signal that the sender is taking a break to go for a dip.
History
The base swimming emoji was added in Unicode 6.0 in 2010. The capability to modify this character with different skin tones arrived later, in Unicode 8.0, as part of a major initiative to make digital characters more representative of the global population.
