Is it racist to use Black emojis when you're white?

I often use a black hand waving or give a black fist pump. Is that wrong?

They're a bit sensitive over there and tend to react like those riot people.

I usually use male smileys etc rather than the female options yet I am a female. Am I sexist? No, not particularly, just lazy & pick the first i see.Smiley Happy

 

To me it doesn't matter two hoots what colour a little icon is, it is the message that is important.

 

Your question reminds me of something I saw on a sales site recently. Now the sales site sells aboriginal designs in clothes & is run by Aborigines. I was browsing it because it has some softer patterns in pink and blue (I suppose some designs have been adapted for retail so they aren't necessarily all traditional colours).

In the FAQ though, someone had asked if it was okay for them to buy and wear any of the clothing or would it be offensive for a white person to wear the clothes.

 

I was a bit shocked as really and truly, the Aborigines running the company would be hoping everyone would love & buy their products.

Since everyone here is only a pseudonym behind a keyboard how would anyone know who is black or white anyway?
