‘Utter Foolishness’: Apple’s New Update Includes Pregnant Man & Pregnant ‘Person’ Emojis

The next emoji update includes a pregnant man — a biological impossibility — as well as a nonbinary pregnant “person.”

The iOS 15.4 beta update includes several new emojis, including a melting face, saluting face,  several multiracial handshakes, a biting lip, mirror disco ball, and more. Perhaps the most controversial new emojis include a “pregnant person,” as well as a “pregnant man” and a nonbinary “person with crown,” as detailed by Emojipedia:

Since 2019 vendors have been making considerable efforts to offer all people emojis with three different gender variants: one Man, one Woman, and a non-gender-specifying Person.

This latest Apple beta update continues this trend by adding two new gender neutral people emojis in the form of Person with Crown and Pregnant Person, as well as adding a new Pregnant Man emoji.

The update comes as transgender activists continue to push the envelope as they forcefully reject the reality of biological sex and push society to accept their premise that gender is fluid — a move critics say effectively erases women, as activists push to allow biological men to compete in women sports.

Establishment news outlets and left-wing political figures are happily participating in the embrace of the anti-science position. In September, for instance, far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) defended using the phrase “menstruating people,” contending that “trans men & non-binary people can also menstruate”:

However, that position blatantly sidesteps biological reality, as biological women are the only sex that menstruates, regardless of gender identity. The New York Times followed suit this month, using similar language and smearing women as “menstruators,” thereby “implementing the radical demand by male-dominated transgender activists who are trying to cut out the cultural status and legal rights earned by women,” as Breitbart News detailed.

All the while, transgender activists are attempting to firmly ingrain these views in children. In 2020, for instance, the children’s TV network Cartoon Network promoted the radical, anti-science ideology in a social media post, asserting there are “many genders beyond ‘girl’ or ‘boy.’”


HD Editor’s Note: Why Is This News Biblically Relevant?

Ken Ham, Founder and CEO of Answers In Genesis, responded to the new emojis stating that a rejection of God’s Word leads to “utter foolishness.”

“For years I’ve been warning in my talks that as people, leaders, education systems, and the culture in general reject the absolute authority of God’s Word, we’ll find ‘anything goes’ as far as people’s worldview/morality,” Ham explained. “Of course, when ‘anything goes,’ it means anything except the absolutes of Christianity—which is what we see increasingly happening.”

“Rejecting God’s Word will lead to utter foolishness and people will be subjective and illogical,” he continued. “Who would have thought years ago that big tech, that produces some of the world’s leading technology, would not be able to tell the difference between a man and a woman! For all their technology, they don’t understand simple genetics.”

Ham further pointed to Mark 10:6, which reads, “from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.”

Romans chapter one describes a people who purposefully have rejected God’s design for gender and sexuality. The Apostle Paul, who wrote this letter to the Christians in Rome, said that “professing themselves to be wise” these people “they became fools” (Romans 1:22).

Politicians Have Amplified And Encouraged Mass Displays Of Antisemitism—And It’s Time For The West To Wake Up

It was a solemn day of remembrance – yet astoundingly, vigils for the victims were met with flagrantly antisemitic protests around the world, including in New York City. The mayor of New York and his counterpart in London both marked the anniversary with statements that, after a throat-clearing mention of the October 7 attacks themselves, were devoted to defaming the Israeli government rather than honoring the victims of the pogrom. It’s just too much to ask for the people of Israel and the global Jewish diaspora to be granted even a day to mourn their dead; instead, their pain is weaponized to punish the Jewish people for daring to defend themselves.

An Astonishing Biblical Passage: The Day The Graves Opened Was A Preview Of Things To Come

As Jesus hung on the cross, a lot of supernatural phenomena took place, including a mighty earthquake, the sun going dark at 12:00 noon, and the curtain in the Temple being ripped from top to bottom. But one of the most amazing things of all happened when people came out of their graves! It’s only mentioned in one Gospel. What is this all about? It is a preview of things to come.

In A Culture Of Trendy Lies, It Is Time To Speak Up More Clearly In Support Of Israel And The Jewish People

We must remember our friends and our allies around the world—particularly Israel and the Jewish people, the one distinct ethnic group of people about which God tells us in His Word to bless and to support. In Genesis 12:3, what did God say to Abraham? “I will bless those who bless you.” Yet many people these days, including a lot of Christians, think that it is trendy, intellectual-sounding, or will garner clicks to oppose things all related to the Jews. Anti-Semitism is on the rise around the world. 2025 was designated by the Anti-Defamation League as the deadliest year of anti-Semitism. Three months after October 7th in 2023, anti-Semitism had risen 360%.
