Category:Historical figures with ambiguous or disputed gender identity

This category is for non-recent historical figures whose gender identity is ambiguous or disputed, and thus subject to controversy.

This category is for individuals who do not fall under WP:BLP criteria, and are thus dead, but not recently-dead (see WP:BDP).

Editors are advised to use caution before categorizing an individual without significant reliable sourcing indicating the presence of ambiguity or dispute regarding the individual's gender.
