Agender (also known as genderless, gender-free, non-gendered, or ungendered)[1][2] is a gender identity where an individual has no gender at all.[3][4][5]

This group represents a spectrum of identities that diverge from conventional gender norms. According to scholar Finn Enke, not all agender individuals may self-identify as transgender.[6] While there is no universally accepted set of pronouns for agender people, singular they is commonly used, but it is not the default.[7] Notably, "Agender" and "Neutrois" were among the custom gender options added to Facebook in February 2014 and to OkCupid since November 2014.[8][9]
