The female restroom pictogram, alongside the male equivalent, 🚹︎, and unisex 🚻, were each created in circa 1965 by British Rail for their train stations.^[1][2] The symbol became standardised in the United States in 1974 when the Department of Transportation collaborated with the American Institute of Graphic Arts et al. on iconography for the public called the DOT pictograms, which included several versions of 🚺.^[3] The depictions were based on the Isotype picture language developed in Austria between 1925 and 1934.^[4][5]

The other senses take 🚺 literally.

Depiction of a woman standing.

• Depictions of the symbol vary, but it is generally shown to be a stick figure wearing a skirt.^[6] At restaurants and other businesses, it is common to see novelty and jocular variations of the icon, especially in regards to 🚹︎ (see the usage notes of 🚻).^[7]
• The symbol (named "Toilets - female" and designated PF 005) is part of the ISO 7001 set of pictograms and symbols for "public information" by the International Organization for Standardization.^[8]
• As an emoji, all operating systems display this symbol as either a purple, red or blue box with a stick figure wearing a skirt. iOS, Facebook and WhatsApp for Android and desktop, Telegram—which uses animated versions of Apple's emoji—and the erstwhile LG emoji set among others use a stylised depiction of the woman with a single leg. The box is purple or pink on iOS, Facebook, Samsung, Microsoft's erstwhile emoji set, WhatsApp, Telegram, Twemoji (used by Twitter and Discord) and JoyPixels among others; and blue on Google's Noto Color Emoji project, Skype and OpenMoji.^[9] The Unicode character itself was released in Unicode 6.0 in October 2010.^[10]
