Neither citation for the paragraph on ⚦ is a reliable source for ⚦ being used to mean “transgender”. Both of them describe “⚧” instead, the accepted transgender symbol. The first source doesn’t even mention “⚦”, while the second source shows the symbol but with no explanation. 122.213.236.124 (talk) 00:53, 11 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
We should be able to find something. Unicode is a dead end: there's no evidence for this in the 2003 proposal that got the symbol added, though there is for the vertical version. — kwami (talk) 06:19, 14 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Wiktionary defines it as "(LGBT) androgyne, gender-neutral, intersex" with a link to McElroy (2020) "Signs & Symbols of the World: Over 1,001 Visual Signs Explained"... AnonMoos (talk) 17:11, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Not done. Next time, please include a reliable source with a request to save another editor time to find one. I found [1], however it appears the symbol you cited isn't technically the right symbol as it has an asterisk at the end and not an X - it doesn't appear that there is a unicode symbol with just the X, but if you do find one, please reply here and I'll be happy to add it.
