It's been said that the term "genderfae" is disrespectful to cultures/religions which revere fae/faeries. An alternative term "genderdoe" was proposed for those who wish to avoid disrespecting these cultures.[4] Another alternative term is "genderthil".[2]

Demographics

In the 2019 Worldwide Gender Census, twelve respondents were genderfae.[5] In the 2020 Gender Census, 53 respondents (0.21% of total respondents) were genderfae.[6]
