    Androgeny, commonly spelled as "Androgyny," is a term derived from the Greek words "andro," meaning man, and "gyny," meaning woman. It refers to the combination, or absence, of masculine and feminine characteristics in an individual. This can relate to physical traits, behavior, dress style, or sexual identity. It is sometimes also used to describe the state of being neither specifically masculine or feminine, often transcending traditional gender stereotypes.
