Genderfork was a blog/online community started by Sarah Dopp in 2007 that remained active until 2018.[1] It is described as "a supportive community for the expression of identities across the gender spectrum".[2] Originally,
Content for the blog is mainly contributed by users, who "may submit their thoughts about gender, questions, a personal profile, a picture, a video, a web link or recommendations for a book, film or work of art."[3] It is also possible to leave comments on individual posts.[3]
As of 2025, Genderfork is no longer online, but exists in an archived form.[1]
Reception[edit | edit source]
Genderfork became wildly successful, getting 540,362 visits from 180 countries during the year 2010.[3]
A 2010 post by Stana of Femulate praised Genderfork as "provid[ing] an outlet for the young gender variant crowd".[4]
Creator Sarah Dopp received comments from Genderfork users who said that the site helped them feel it was okay to be non-binary and taught them about how others related to and described their genders.[5] One user credited profiles on Genderfork with teaching them vocab like neutrois and "agendered" [sic].
