The term "ambigender" as a gender identity dates back at least to the mid-1990s; for example in 1993, it was mentioned in a list of terms in Cross-Talk, a transgender community magazine.[4]
In a 2010 encyclopedia, ambigender is listed as a type of "androgyne" gender.
| « | Androgyne identities include pangender, bigender, ambigender, nongendered, agender, gender fluid, or intergender.[5] | » |
