07 โ€” In conversation

What ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ means from a girl or a guy

Same emoji, different intent depending on who sent it and what came before.

From a girl
If a girl sends you ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ, it could mean a lot of things. She might genuinely admire the relationship, be supportive of the couple, or she might be flirting with you and the person in the emoji. It's often a compliment and a way of acknowledging their bond.
From a guy
If a guy sends you ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ, he could be expressing his own attraction to the couple, offering congratulations, or playfully acknowledging their relationship. Itโ€™s frequently a sign of support or admiration for a same-sex relationship.
How to reply
If someone sends you ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ, you could reply with: โ€œYou guys are adorable ๐Ÿฅฐโ€, โ€œGoals! ๐Ÿ’ฏโ€, โ€œLove this! โค๏ธโ€, or โ€œSo sweet! ๐Ÿ˜Šโ€
Used in a sentence

08 โ€” Around the world

What ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ means in other countries

An intimate same-sex image that's affectionate in open contexts but genuinely risky to share publicly where same-sex relationships are outlawed.

Offensive in some countries
LGBTQ+-affirming communities

Used as an open, affectionate relationship symbol.

countries with anti-LGBTQ+ laws

Public sharing can carry real legal consequences, not just disapproval.

private messaging between partners

Simply an intimate, affectionate message shared one-on-one.

Before you send it: Keep it to private or clearly welcoming spaces if there's any doubt about where it'll be seen.

09 โ€” Apps

What ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ means on TikTok, WhatsApp and Discord

The character is the same everywhere, but the artwork and the reading of it change from app to app.

TikTok & Instagram
Generally, when someone sends you ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ, theyโ€™re indicating they see you and someone else as a romantic couple, or that they admire the connection between the two of you. It's a way of acknowledging a visible same-sex relationship. In comments and captions it is read the same way โ€” the tone comes from what it sits next to.
WhatsApp
WhatsApp draws ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ with Apple-style artwork on every phone, so it looks identical for both sides, and holding it lets you pick a skin tone. A message with only ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ in it is shown enlarged.
Discord & Slack
Both accept the shortcode :man-kiss-man:. Discord renders Twemoji, so ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ looks different there than on your phone.
Outlook & email
Outlook has no emoji picker on desktop โ€” press Win + . or Control + Command + Space inside the message body, or paste ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ’‹โ€๐Ÿ‘จ from the copy button above.
