There's nothing wrong with designing new glyphs covering pronouns in response to a lament about their lack in emoji made at a conference several years back. Although met with skepticism on this list (and elsewhere), there's always a possibility that emoji users might welcome pronoun coverage.<br>
<br>
The way to find out is to float a proposal. Here's the guidelines:<br>

<br>
This forum would be a good place to discuss anything unclear in the guidelines as well as to ask questions regarding any feedback generated further on down the line. Glyph design and so forth is mostly off-topic here. And since we already know that many people find pronouns useful, there would be no need to discuss their potential usefulness here.<br>
<br>
Good luck!<br>
