How to make Mars and Venus symbols?

Post by Spectrum »

Does anyone know how to make Mars symbols (♂) and Venus symbols (♀) in LaTeX? Y'know, the shield-and-spear symbol that represents "male" and the mirror symbol that represents "female". I can't seem to find them.

Thanks.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Look at the Comprehensive LaTeX symbol list: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/sy ... ols-a4.pdf

On page 48 there are the Venus and Mars symbols by using the marvosym package (and also some alternatives).
