Fingender or FIN is an umbrella term for all genders that are feminine in nature. It also refers to genders that are primarily feminine. It doesn’t automatically have to be related to womanhood but to femininity as a whole.
These genders are used by individuals who may not be able to narrow it down but know they are not a binary woman.
The term fingender can be used as a standalone term, referring to the gender not being fully defined by being feminine but relates in some way.
