Genderdoe, also known as genderfae or genderthil, is a form of genderfluidity that never encompasses male or masculine genders. Genderdoe people can be fluid between any range of feminine genders, unaligned or neutral genders (such as aporagender), or genderlessness, but they never experience masculine genders. Genderdoe is sometimes considered a non-masculine subset of fluidflux.
The alternative terms genderdoe and genderthil were coined for those who do not want to use "fae". There is currently a movement to solidify into only using genderdoe or genderthil due to fae being revered in certain cultures.
The masculine complement to genderfae is genderfaun. Variants of genderfae include genderfaer, in which one can experience masculine genders but is never a binary man, and genderselkie, where the nonbinary genders experienced are often xenic.
Modifiers[]
> Demifae is a gender which is partially static and partially fluid (demifluid). The fluid part of the gender is only fluid between identities which are not male, male-aligned, or masculine. The static part of the gender can be any gender of combination of genders.
> Pangenderfae is the static version of genderdoe/genderfae. Someone who identifies as pangenderfae experiences all non-masculine-aligned genders within reason, within knowledge, etc. Pangenderfae was coined by an unknown person, but tumblr blog uncommongenders (now deactivated with resources gone) designed the pangenderfae flag.

History & Coining[]
The term was supposedly coined anonymously in 2014, on the now defunct blog "mogai-archive".
Flags[]
The genderfae flag was designed by the user Superpopcorn101 on Deviantart on January 9, 2017. The colors don't have individual meanings, but the range purposefully doesn't include blue to indicate never including masculine genders. A pastel color scheme was used to give the flag a more "fae" feeling
