Woman Kneeling Emoji 🧎‍♀️

What 🧎‍♀️ means

Shown full-body, this woman kneels completely down on her knees, arms resting on her thighs in a relaxed, crouched posture, her head tipped slightly downward.

The 🧎‍♀️ Woman Kneeling emoji signifies a prayerful posture. But it can also suggest a yoga position, a gesture of defeat and sadness, punishment (the clean kind or worse, the rice kind), and even a posture of extending a marriage proposal (only on some platforms).

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

How and when to use it

If you're posting a religious or spiritual post or tweet about the faith you believe in and/or follow, you can use 🧎‍♀️ either in the post caption or within the tweet itself.
You can use 🧎‍♀️ while posting about something that you're dedicated to. It can be your girl gang, a mantra that you follow in life, a book series, a music album, anything. For example, "If it wasn't for the Beatles, I'd have a very sad outlook towards life 🧎‍♀️. Bless up".
🧎‍♀️ also signifies a yoga posture or a relaxation body position. So, if you're doing either of the two and you're posting, tweeting, or texting someone about it, then use this emoji in such contexts.
The 🧎‍♀️ emoji does a half kneel on platforms such as Twitter and Google. So, on such platforms, you can use this emoji in the context of a marriage proposal. If you're reposting a very sweet proposing video or picture on Twitter, or you're tweeting a video of you getting down on your knees for the love of your life, you can use 🧎‍♀️ in those contexts.
If you're posting a picture of your house pet sitting down, looking as adorable as ever, you can use 🧎‍♀️ in the post caption. For instance, "I be chillin' like 🧎‍♀️ while you clean up the mess I made. You brought me home, momma ".
