Person pouting: medium-dark skin tone Emoji

People

A cartoon-style face with a medium-dark skin tone, featuring a slight frown, furrowed brows, and a noticeably pouting mouth. The character appears visibly irritated or displeased with a situation.

Usage Context

Used to express annoyance, stubbornness, or a 'sulk' when things don't go as planned. It is a more specific alternative to the general ☹️ or 😒 emojis, often used when someone feels they are being ignored or treated unfairly.

History

This variant was introduced as part of the Unicode expansion in 2015, which brought diverse skin tones to human-based emojis. The base 'person pouting' icon itself dates back to the early days of mobile messaging, where it served as a digital shorthand for the classic Japanese manga trope of a character crossing their arms and puffing out their cheeks in frustration.
