A swinger couple has shared an explainer for all the X-rated emojis associated with the lifestyle.
Spend any amount of time on the internet and you'll likely know that several emojis have developed a double entendre, with most of us no longer able to look at peaches, aubergines, and sweat droplets in the same way again.
Emojis with hidden meanings aren't always sex-related either, with kidney beans, eight balls, and plug sockets also used to reference drugs and incel culture.
Swinger culture is also not immune to having a hidden secret meaning behind its symbols, with the pineapple - more specifically, the upside-down pineapple - being a near-universal sign for the community.

However, it's not just exotic fruit, black rings and flamingos which could signal swingers – with one couple revealing the hidden meanings behind certain emojis.
Content creator couple Bella and Jase have built a following online by sharing videos 'trying to normalise alternative relationships' on their account @4OURPLAY.
In one video, the couple shared an explainer for emojis, which are frequently associated with the lifestyle.
Unicorn
Once a fantasy animal associated with fairytales and mythical creatures, the unicorn has now gained a second meaning.

"This means you are a single female looking for a couple," Bella explained, adding that a 'unicorn' is typically also a bisexual woman.
This isn't the first time the unicorn has cropped up in swinging and polyamorous circles either, with another creator explaining how a unicorn is different to a throuple, as they are someone who 'does not threaten the relationship'.
Bull
Similar to unicorns, a bull is often used by single men seeking to take part in the lifestyle, as Bella says: "[It is] a single male looking to play with couples."

Content creator @TheImpulsiveDuo also addressed the symbol in a video of his, stating that a man who described himself as a 'bull' was typically a 'straight male' who is often 'well endowed' and looking to get involved with couples, usually to fulfil the 'hot wife' fantasy.
Dragon
Dragons have also found themselves tangled up in the world of polyamorous relationships, with Bella explaining that this usually refers to a bisexual man who is interested in the lifestyle and on the lookout for other couples.
Chains
Unlike the animal emojis, this one shouldn't be too hard to figure out, with Bella adding that chains can often signify a person's desire to explore kinks in their swinging experiences.
