'''Gendervoid''' refers to a gender which is an absence, a blank space or void where a gender might otherwise be.
It is often used synonymously with voidgender, which is defined as a gender coming from or associated with the void, although they are not the same thing.

Gendervoid refers to a gender which is an absence, a blank space or void where a gender might otherwise be.
It is often used synonymously with voidgender, which is defined as a gender coming from or associated with the void, although they are not the same thing.
Gendervoid vs. Agender
Gendervoid is similar to agender, and the two terms are sometimes used interchangeably. However, while they do overlap, they are not always the same.[1] Agender is a more broad term, it can also sometimes encompasses neutral genders. Additionally, while an agender individual may feel as though they never had a gender in the first place, a gendervoid individual may feel like there is an empty place where a gender would/should be but simply isn't or is unable to experience gender. One may also feel that the void itself is their gender.
History
