More than one way to read an emoji
There are 3,633 emojis in the Unicode Standard as of September 2021, according to Emojipedia. That’s a lot to choose from, so it’s no wonder there are incidents of confusion.

Hand/peach/devil
The peach has come to symbolize a person’s behind. Put a hand and devil around it and it suggests spanking.
Movie ticket/dancer
Some emojis by themselves don’t have popular second meanings, but when you put them together, it changes that. Combine a movie ticket, dancing female, and a set of eyes and it’s like saying you want to watch a woman dancing in a state of undress.
Arrows
There are arrow emojis that are just that; arrows. There are others with words attached such as “ON” and “TOP.” It doesn’t take much imagination to combine these with the emoji of a person to show where you like to be behind closed doors.
Crossed arms/pants
Telling someone you want them to remove their pants can only be interpreted in one way. This can be done by combining a person crossing their arms, pants and the arrow emoji with the word “SOON” attached.
Baguette/honey
Food emojis are popular choices to convey sexual messages (the eggplant emoji is among the most popular). The phallic nature of the baguette emoji made this all but a certainty. Combine it with a honeypot to symbolize a woman’s private parts and the message is clear.
Snake/flower
You don’t need to think too hard to figure out what a snake can represent. And the flower is a symbol of a woman’s virginity in many cultures.
Birds/bees
Combine a bird, a bee and a dialogue icon and you get the discussion parents dread having with their children.
