Ahahah cmon mate he's clearly a troll! I'm joking don't get triggered that easily, this is not tumblr.

Let's just ignore that slaanesh is the god that has been referred to as a he and a she but YES, TZEENCH IS GOOD CHANGEY GENDER GOD.

Jokes aside, the gender identity crisis is a real mental issue, we are not simply talking about tastes (like homosexuality). This kind of people deserves love and respect but they must be helped, because they have a problem. The majority, instead of looking for help in cooping with their identity, just hide in sick online ''places'' fightin every possible criticism with a passive aggressive attitude.
Sorry for the digression.

There's a character in the book Daemon World that probably qualifies as a Daemon Princess. She was a mortal that ascended into some sort of relatively powerful supernatural, daemonic (or at least very heavily mutated) creature with psychic abilities. And she used feminine pronouns. So... yeah. Daemon princess.

My point was as a warp entity she can be whatever she wants in that regard. If she decided the next day that on a base level she was male, that's what she would be. It's not like she would reproduce in a human manner anymore either, so at that point gender is just a mental state that can be changed on a whim.

Ingethel, the Cadian shamaness that guided Lorgar through his pilgrimage to the Primordial Truth, ascended to Daemonhood. She is still referred to as a Daemon Prince for some reason, but she's clearly a feminine one borne of a mortal woman. As said, daemons don't necessarily even have genders, so I guess it doesn't even matter. But women can become Daemon Princes.

NOTE: Equating gender identity questions with mental illness?

In no way considered 'polite'.

To be precise, Gender Dysphoria is classified as a psychological disorder. That's the whole idea behind trans rights: it's not something someone can choose on a whim, but something that happens to them. But you can absolutely put it in more polite ways than saying "trans people are mentally ill."

are not gender fluid because they are not mentally ill

Hey look, this guy believe Tzeentch cultists are sane. This guy actually believe that Tzeentch cultists are sane. Nobody sane believe that Tzeentch cultists are sane, amirite?

By now he's probably a Chaos Spaw[PHTAAAAGHURGHFALAUWL]

Asking what gender Daemons are makes as much sense as asking what gender gravity is. It's a force of nature.

It has no impact on gameplay, I'm not against it.
