Whether or not it makes Baby Boomers uncomfortable, it’s safe to say younger generations are evolving beyond binary gifting norms and opting for gender-neutral gifts more often. Gift ideas don’t need to revolve around anyone’s role in your life or whether they present as a man or woman. No matter who you’re shopping for, we know it’s not always easy finding a gift they’ll actually use.

Today’s Top Deals

The good news is we’re all human. We can find other ways to relate to one another and don’t need to define someone in gendered terms to find something that suits them. Maybe you’re participating in some potluck gift exchange and have no idea who will be on the receiving end of your gift, or you want to be sensitive to the fact that identities can change. Luckily, many product categories aren’t gendered, and more companies are coming out with gender-neutral or unisex items every day.

Look, we’ve rounded up plenty of the best gifts for women you know and a slew of the best gifts for the impossible man in your life, but finding the best gender-neutral gift may just be more sensible for some folks. Because why wouldn’t you want to get something that everyone can enjoy? It also opens up the opportunity for loaning out or regifting, but you don’t have to worry about that. Don’t put your loved ones in a box. Get them one of these great gifts that anyone can appreciate.

A blend of citrus, tomato, orange tree bark and honeysuckle, plus the fact that it comes from a very cool brand, make it almost certain that anyone who got this candle as a gift would love it. Founded by real-life partners Matthew Herman and David Kien, the idea behind Boy Smells is to go beyond the gender binary, which is refreshing given that many scents are categorized as “feminine” or “masculine” and therefore polarize the market. These products smell excellent (Gardener is our favorite), embrace both masculine and feminine energies, and are aesthetically pleasing.
