    While a war rages on to #freetheeggplant, a campaign dedicated to restoring the visibility of the character on Instagram, and possibly even return it to its splendor as a Mediterranean food staple, it was only a matter of time before it became used to make women feel uncomfortable in online spaces. Eggplant emoji is the digital catcall—seemingly harmless, but at its core a symbolic representation of old fashioned masculinity and dominance over women
    Why are there no eggplant emojis on spurstalk?
