👩‍🦽

Woman in Manual Wheelchair Emoji 👩‍🦽

What 👩‍🦽 means

A full-length side profile of a woman sitting in a manual wheelchair with both feet on the footrest and both hands on either side of the wheel, positioned in a way of maneuvering the wheel.

The 👩‍🦽 Woman in Manual Wheelchair emoji signifies physical disability in the literal sense. But, it can also suggest a sense of feeling vulnerable, dependent, and helpless.

This emoji is available in the designated skin tones on almost all platforms.

How and when to use it

If you're a wheelchair user, or you work at a wheelchair provider service, you can use 👩‍🦽 in your social media profile.
If you're driving yourself towards something or someone (not literally) in your life and you're adding something about that in your picture caption, you can use 👩‍🦽. For example, "Driving myself towards good health, good life and a good wife 👩‍🦽" (if you're straight, then stop at good life, because husband wouldn't rhyme).
You can also use 👩‍🦽 to indicate a sense of moving away from something or someone. For instance, if you're bestie and you are texting about a toxic phase that you two went through with somebody else, you can use this emoji to cut the conversation. Like "Aight. Cut it 👩‍🦽. Enough of that toxic bs".
If you just witnessed something horrendous and too cringy to even complete on social media, you can use 👩‍🦽 as an emoji response to show that you're trying to make a speedy getaway from that post. Couple this emoji with the 💨 Dashing Away emoji to signify faster speed.
If you're posting an inspiring picture, video, or tweet of a woman in a wheelchair, then you can use 👩‍🦽 in the caption.
