It's important to be mindful of the context and the specific meaning you're aiming for. Here's why:
* Nationality: If you're referring to someone's nationality (a citizen of India), "Indian" is used for both men and women.
* Ethnicity: When discussing ethnicity or origin, "Indian" is again used for both men and women.
* Indigenous Peoples: If you're referring to the indigenous peoples of the Americas, "Native American" is commonly used and applies to both genders.
Instead of seeking a "feminine" word, it's best to use "Indian" or "Native American" respectfully and avoid gendering the term.
