'''A Administrivia/{{No Recent Examples|please}} rule applies to this trope'''. Examples for episodic works shouldn't be added until '''end of season''' for the season introducing the ambiguity (or after '''3 months''', for episodic works without seasons). This is to allow time for the story to develop the character and resolve ambiguity. There is no waiting time for non-episodic works.

* Ky(lie) Coven from ''{{Webcomic/Rain}}''. Although biologically female, Ky sometimes presents as a boy and sometimes as a girl depending on how they're feeling. There are also occasions where Ky prefers to identify as [[http://jocelynsamara.deviantart.com/art/RAIN-p537-Ky-s-Fluidity-470054118 androgynous]], though not too often. The author usually uses male pronouns for him in the commentary, though many characters and readers believe Kylie is genderfluid.

* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'''s Vaarsuvius is a prime example, much to the annoyance of their teammate Belkar. While they have a mate and two (adopted) children, their kids refer to them as "Parent" and "Other Parent". [[WordOfGod The Giant]] has stated that their gender will not be revealed, and anytime they are referred as "he" or "she", it is simply the other character's assumptions. V also has trouble telling genders apart, as seen when they fail to notice Roy's GenderBender.

* Nobody knows what gender Pebble is from ''Webcomic/PebbleAndWren''. They're ''probably'' male, but it's hard to determine. [[WordOfGod The creator has called them "he"]], but he's also called them "they", and even their own mother has called him "they", so maybe nobody knows.

* The Alchemist in ''Webcomic/AgentsOfTheRealm'' is always referred to as "they" and wears a cowl, further obfuscating their gender.
* On account of the readily available body modifications and relaxed gender norms of the setting, several supporting and background characters in ''Webcomic/AlwaysHuman'' are this. Yasel mentions possessing breasts to go with an outfit as one would suggest putting on a different hat.
* The ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'' fancomic ''Webcomic/AndShineHeavenNow'' continues this tradition for Heinkel, until it's revealed [[spoiler:Heinkel is intersex]].
* ''Webcomic/TheBedfellows'': Fatigue exhibits masculine and feminine traits; other characters refer to Fatigue as a man or woman, Fatigue has a tampon in his purse, and in one episode, Fatigue appears to be peeing standing up in one episode when he's really pouring spoiled milk down a toilet. Additionally, Fatigue is shown to be the "woman of the house" compared to Sheen, and has CampGay tendencies.
* ''Webcomic/TheBirdFeeder'' has Exotic, an exotic bird of indeterminate species and gender. [[http://thebirdfeeder.com/characters#item-9 The characters page]] states, "It is of uncertain gender, as no one has ever taken the time to check."
* None of the characters depicted in the comics of ''Webcomic/FifteenMinds'' have any kind of gender indicator, and since there's no dialogue or written language, nothing is ever stated on the topic, out of apparently deliberate artistic choice in order to keep the focus on the artwork and events of the comics.
* ''Webcomic/CharbyTheVampirate'': King Samrick has a number of colorful feathered beings who have named themselves after their favorite foods working for him whose genders are not apparent.
* Styx in ''Webcomic/CogaSuro''. Although originally appearing by taking over several nominally female characters, Styx's later appearances, in physical, robot bodies, only get more and more ambiguous.
* ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures'':
** Fluffy from the NoFourthWall segments. At one point during 'Reader Mail', Amber receives a letter questioning what gender Fluffy is, causing Fluffy to complain that "that's too stupid, even for the readers", walking away complaining about their obliviousness... as soon as they're off-panel, Amber admits that she doesn't know either, despite having created it.
** Mink seems to pass from ViewerGenderConfusion into canon ambiguity. [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_1240.php Even Mink doesn't know what gender Mink is, let alone anyone else.]] All Cubi have the innate ability to [[GenderBender freely switch between genders at will]], meaning Mink could be any gender whenever they want. Mink is also TheDitz and so has forgotten what they are.
* Chacal from ''Webcomic/DaPukas'', no one knows Chacal's gender, except for Chacal, and they aren't telling. They even used it ''[[http://dapukas.com/?comic=gender to taunt Artifice]]''
* In ''Webcomic/DeepRise'' [[StarfishAliens Nobles]] don't have genders at all.
* The main character from ''Webcomic/DemonEater'', Saturno. At least, [[WordOfGod that's what the author tells us]]. Used as a plot point in later story arcs.
* Kanryl of ''Webcomic/EarsForElves'' looks reasonably androgynous, though it seems many readers refer to "him" as male, and there is no word about what "his" gender actually is. Archmage has stated he's keeping a tally of how many people consider "him" male or female.
* Noah, from ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', whom we know as a boy only because it was said and in comparison to whom Tedd doesn't look "''that'' androgynous" at all, despite this being an old RunningGag. Tedd himself falls into this, even in-universe. Even without resorting to GenderBender technology or spells. At one point he finds he has a new spell that will turn him into a girl, whereupon he and his girlfriend Grace note how ''redundant'' that is.
* ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'',
** The processing of fairies and animals who want to become human and join the Court is done by a tall willowy person with no obvious characteristics. After they re-establish that animals become male to balance the [[OneGenderRace all-female fairies]], Annie asks if the processor is a former fairy or a former animal, and is told [[spoiler: "Um ... [[MathematiciansAnswer neither]]. I'm from Cardiff."]]
** In ''Webcomic/CityFace 2'', our heroic pigeon develops a rivalry with Bobeyes, a magpie. In the eighth strip (of 10), TheRant refers to Bobeyes by female pronouns, which is the first and only indication of her gender. In the in-universe ShoutBox, [=Magpie55=] is taken aback to realise the "awesome tough guy" is a girl, although he later says "she is beautiful".
* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'':
** Calmasis, a character in a [[ShowWithinAShow book-within-a-webcomic]] is said to be "androgynous" and referred to as s/he. Whether this means Calmasis merely chooses to conceal their gender, is a person of non-binary gender identity, or is a non-human with NoBiologicalSex is as yet unknown.
** Calliope and Caliborn, who share a body, both have specific genders they identify with (Calliope being female and Caliborn being male), but the body they share is very androgynous-looking, having huge eyelashes, no hair and being flat chested. However, you can tell them apart by the colour of their cheek swirls. Adult cherubs appear externally male and female, though in the example we're given, if the female wins their mating duel she [[MisterSeahorse lays the egg inside the male]]. Presumably, if she lost, the male would fertilize her.
** Davepetasprite^2, a combination of a male human and a female troll (among other things), references this soon after coming into being: "Yo um... I'm confused about my gender suddenly. What am I now?"
** [[Characters/HomestuckOtherCharacters Minor animal characters]] (like Film/{{Serenity}} the firefly or Vodka Mutini the cat) get this a lot, sometimes thanks to [[IHaveManyNames multiple name changes]]. Is John's adopted salamander the female Casey or the male Viceroy Bubbles von Salamancer? Is the ''Film/ConAir'' bunny the same gender as Creator/LivTyler or [[Film/WeekendAtBernies Terry Kiser]]? Serenity's example is lampshaded, with the narrative revealing that WV is only guessing that she's a girl and even noting that he's "not even sure if fireflies can ''be'' girls"--a perspective that's not as silly as it sounds, as in some species, female fireflies are flightless and resemble larvae, which doesn't apply to Serenity at all.
* ''Webcomic/{{Insecticomics}}'' has fun with this: the giant androgynous robots are whatever gender and gender role they feel like being at the time. Thrust even changed gender to female as a mocking response to Lady Jaye's complaints about gay robots--and has kept it that way ever since, though no other aspects of her personality have shifted. Just to demonstrate how ambiguous the concept of gender can be around giant robots, another instance has the Insecticons changing Lazorbeak's gender through ''electoral fraud.'' This gender change also sticks.
* In ''Webcomic/{{Kaspall}}'', the Captain is an androgynous [[FunnyAnimal bipedal rat]] from the city police force, and has never found it necessary to specify plumbing or pronouns on-screen. ([[http://kaspall.com/comic/2014/07/20#IDComment856386970 As the author put it in the comments:]] "[[ShrugOfGod Feel free to assign [the Captain's gender/sex] as you like, as it has no bearing on this story whatsoever.]]")
* SPDA from ''Webcomic/MagicAndPhysics'' is ambiguous to the point the ''creators'' don't know.
* ''Webcomic/{{Monsterkind}}'' has Louise, who is later revealed by WordOfGod to be non-binary, and preferring they/them pronouns.
* Taking cues from ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'', elves from ''Webcomic/MurphysLaw'' have much less noticeable secondary sexual characteristics.
* ''Webcomic/{{Nebula}}'': The characters are all {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s and are all [[http://ghostfruits.com/post/122728735820 canonically]] non-binary, though some look more masculine or feminine and use gendered pronouns.
* ''Webcomic/NeoKosmos'' takes place in the distant future, where nearly all of humanity is extinct and the only survivors are raised by aliens with no concept of human ideas of gender; there are several different varieties of Ambiguous Gender at play.

The only exception is Iris, who is fascinated by ancient human culture and who thinks of herself as a girl.
** The compies are vaguely-feminine looking LizardFolk, and are implied to either be a OneGenderRace (with that gender not nessesarily being male or female), or simply not to have gender at all.
