{{SMW notice}}This list is based primarily on card text and art. Some cards are clearly female. This may be because it has feminine pronouns in its name ("[[Archfiend Empress]]", "[[Serpentine Princess]]"), is referred to as female in its card text ("[[Gyakutenno Megami]]", "[[X-Saber Anu Piranha]]"), or possesses female secondary sex characteristics ("[[Mist Valley Shaman]]", "[[Performance of Sword]]"). Others may have an overtly feminine appearance ("[[Dryad]]", "[[Mystical Elf]]"), are part of a female archetype ([[Amazoness]], [[Harpie]], [[Reptilianne]]) or are merely presumed female based on their voice and/or role in the anime or manga ("[[Ancient Fairy Dragon]]", "[[Gravekeeper's Assailant]]"). Others yet may have an androgynous or ambiguously-female appearance, such as "[[Jain, Lightsworn Paladin]]", who could either be female or male. Some female cards are even misspelled with the lack of feminine pronouns such as [[Fire Sorcerer]].

{{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]]") or are referred to as female in lores ("[[Gyakutenno Megami]]", "[[X-Saber Anu Piranha]]"). Some monsters only have an overtly feminine appearance ("[[Dryad]]", "[[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]]", "[[Gravekeeper's Assailant]]"). Others are androgynous or ambiguously female in appearance, but could be either male or female ("[[Jain, Lightsworn Paladin]]").
  
==Trivia==
+
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").

* In the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL (manga)|''Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL'' manga]], "[[Number 22: Zombiestein]]" has an [[Card effect|effect]] that prevents it from attacking female monsters.

This is a list of female cards, including female 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") or are referred to as female in lores ("Gyakutenno Megami", "X-Saber Anu Piranha"). Some monsters only have an overtly feminine appearance ("Dryad", "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", "Gravekeeper's Assailant"). Others are androgynous or ambiguously female in appearance, but could be either male or female ("Jain, Lightsworn Paladin").

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 the second series anime, "Shadow of Eyes" is shown to be ineffective against female monsters; in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL manga, "Number 22: Zombiestein" has an effect that prevents it from attacking female monsters; and in Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories, some monsters can be Fusion Summoned by using female materials, including "Mystical Sand", "Queen of Autumn Leaves", "Nekogal #2", and "Dark Witch". A few of the earlier video games feature cards whose effects specifically affect or exclude female cards, as well.
