Gender symbols

Gender symbols are graphic designs that represent a gender, such as the Venus symbol for female, and Mars symbol for male. Symbols for nonbinary gender identities explore variations on these. This page gives an incomplete list of symbols for gender identities.

Symbols based on Venus/Mars paradigm
Like the Venus and Mars symbols for the binary genders, these designs have a large, central circle, just with different prongs, angles, or other details. These designs may also use other astrological symbols.

Binary gender symbols
These are the basic symbols of the binary genders.

Transgender symbols
The transgender symbol has a combination of female, male, and mixed symbols.

Ambiguous symbols
There are several common symbols that don't have clearly defined meanings, and may be used to represent various different concepts.

Nonbinary gender identity symbols
These are symbols for specific nonbinary gender identities. Listed in alphabetical order.

More identity symbols
These symbols are for identities that aren't always seen as nonbinary gender identities, or sometimes even as gender identities. Listed in alphabetical order.

Other kinds of gender symbols
Some gender symbols aren't based on the Venus and Mars symbols. This can be an intentional choice for those who don't like Venus and Mars symbolism, or to get farther away from the gender binary.
