'''Femmegender''', or '''femgender''', is a nonbinary gender identity that is feminine in nature. It comes from the queer term "[[femme]]", which means a person who subverts and/or queers [[femininity]]. The term is popular in [[lesbian]] and [[sapphic]] communities. Femmegender can denote a person whose gender identity is tied to their femmeness. For a person who does not identify as femme, but still feels like their femininity is a part of their gender, the spelling femgender can be used.

{{quote|Purple is a feminine color, but doesn't have the same GIRL connotations that pink does. The fade out of shades from dark to light is meant to represent the variations in gender while still associating with the core/foundation of femme.
