{{SMW notice}}This is a '''list of female cards''', including female [[Monster Card|monsters]] and cards that depict female monsters in their artworks. Most monsters are visibly female due to having female secondary sex characteristics ("[[Mist Valley Shaman]]", "[[Performance of Sword]]"), but some are only shown to be female in [[card text]]: they have female pronouns or feminine word forms in their names ("[[Archfiend Empress]]", "[[Serpentine Princess]]"), have a feminine name ("[[Mariamne, the True Dracophoenix]]"), are referred to as female in lores ("[[Gyakutenno Megami]]", "[[X-Saber Anu Piranha]]"). Some monsters only have an overtly feminine appearance ("[[Doriado]]", "[[Mystical Elf]]"), are members of a female [[archetype]] or [[series]] ("[[Amazoness]]", "[[Harpie]]") or are presumed female based on their voice or role in the anime or manga ("[[Ancient Fairy Dragon (anime)|Ancient Fairy Dragon]]", "[[Gravekeeper's Assailant (anime)|Gravekeeper's Assailant]]"). Others are androgynous or ambiguously female in appearance, but could be either male or female ("[[Jain, Lightsworn Paladin]]").

Throughout the history of the ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' franchise, the '''gender''' of monsters has occasionally seen relevance as an element of gameplay. This page does not discuss gender as it relates to non-card characters.
  
A few female cards have names that use masculine word forms, even where a feminine form is widely-known and used ("[[Fire Sorcerer]]", which uses "Sorcerer" instead of "Sorceress").

Female cards, as a group, have occasionally had a role of some significance in the anime, manga and video games:

*In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories]]'', some monsters can be [[Fusion Summon]]ed by using female materials, including "[[Mystical Sand (FMR)|Mystical Sand]]", "[[Queen of Autumn Leaves (FMR)|Queen of Autumn Leaves]]", "[[Nekogal 2 (FMR)|Nekogal #2]]" and "[[Dark Witch (FMR)|Dark Witch]]"
 
 
 
*In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses]]'', "[[The Immortal of Thunder (DOR)|The Immortal of Thunder]]", "[[Electro-Whip (DOR)|Electro-Whip]]", "[[Cyber Shield (DOR)|Cyber Shield]]" and "[[Malevolent Nuzzler (DOR)|Malevolent Nuzzler]]" have effects that affect female cards.
 
 
 
In the TCG, the femininity of monsters frequently affects gameplay in languages that have grammatical gender, in other words, all languages other than English. Grammatical gender (along with grammatical number and other types of grammatical inflections) has resulted in different naming schemes for these languages, for example, by adding "additional" archetypes or adding notes for femininity (for example, "Mágico(a)" in Portuguese or "Mágico/a" in Spanish) to archetype names, all to minimize ambiguity in terms of archetype membership for female monsters. Unlike in other languages, in Italian, archetype membership for female monsters and cards with grammatical number has been implicit, and archetype names have usually been simply masculine by default.
