The term seems to have first been coined by Tumblr user danirak-spyderowl under the name faeflux, who posted about it in March of 2020, but had created the term "a couple years" before the post.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://danirak-spyderowl.tumblr.com/post/611601215817695232/i-figured-id-lose-followers-by-living-my-elfin|date=3 March 2020|title=I figured I'd lose followers by living my Elfin truth, but turns out I was afraid for nothing!|archive-url=False|archive-date=17 July 2023}}</ref> However, "faeflux" has also been independently coined by Tumblr user vaympire in February of 2021<ref name="vaym_@nov">{{Cite web |title=doeflux/femflux |author= |date=13 February 2021 |access-date=19 June 2021 |url= https://vaympire.tumblr.com/post/643015659388796928/doefluxfemflux-i-wanted-a-label-that-fits-my|archive-url=False |archive-date=17 July 2023 }}</ref> and by Reddit user Sunset--Lover in March of 2021<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/Genderfae/comments/m1xd7c/fun_fact/ |title=Fun fact|date=10 March 2021 |access-date=19 June 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210322025650/https://www.reddit.com/r/Genderfae/comments/m1xd7c/fun_fact/|archive-date=17 July 2023}}</ref>
 
As "genderdoe" was proposed as a substitute for the term "genderfae," doeflux started being used as an alternative for faeflux.
