iPhone users: You don't have to keep those yellow-skinned emoji people.

If you press and hold a people-emoji, a menu will pop up offering that emoji-person in a wide range of natural skin colors. Select any one you like. So much more beautiful than Simpson-yellow.

My menu of emoji-people is very diverse. It's lovely to see...

The handshake emoji doesn't come in other skin colors. And a lot of the 'couples' emojis are yellow or nothing.

...but then found people asking me why I did so. I guess, in their eyes, changing those emojis to white (well, light pink, obviously) was some sort of a statement of "White Pride" on my part.

Although they still have a lot of improbable skin/hair color combinations though.
