A gender bend is when you take a character who is a boy or girl and then represent them as the opposite sex. For example, if a character is a girl, her gender bent version would be a male version of her. Same goes for a male characters. Gender swap means the same thing but I think gender bend is more common online.

I have also heard "gender bender" used to mean people who defy expectations for gender roles- whether that is jobs that are usually held by the opposite sex (nurse vs. construction worker) or how they dress. Gender swap, though, sounds like it would always mean switching the actual gender.
