Man feeding baby: light skin tone Emoji

People

A man with light skin holding a baby in his arms while bottle-feeding it. The figure is depicted in a nurturing pose, highlighting the act of caregiving as a standard daily task for modern fathers.

Usage Context

This emoji is frequently used to discuss parenthood, baby care schedules, or to share updates about life with a newborn. It serves as a direct, inclusive alternative to the traditional mother-focused feeding emojis like 👩‍🍼, helping to represent diverse family dynamics and shared domestic responsibilities.

History

Part of the effort to increase gender inclusivity in emoji sets, this specific combination was added to Unicode 13.0 in 2020. It uses ZWJ (Zero Width Joiner) technology to bridge the man emoji and the bottle-feeding icon, reflecting a shift in tech standards to better represent modern family structures.
