'''Gendervoid |
'''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 is similar to [[agender]], and the two terms are sometimes used interchangeably. However, while they do overlap, they are not always the same. 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. |

The alternate gendervoid flag was created by fandom user [https://lgbta.wikia.org/wiki/User:Fruitindividual Fruitindividual] on February 28th, 2021. The black of the flag represents the void, the center black circle represents the void core. The two interior grey rings representing a feeling of absence and mirrors the circular design of a black hole. The third broken ring demonstrates absence of gender with a replacement of void to differentiate itself from agender and other-like identities. |
