'''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. | '''Femmegender''', or '''femgender''', is a nonbinary gender identity that is feminine in nature.
