Sexless

Sexless is an umbrella term for anyone who lacks sexed characteristics or qualities and/or has an absent or null sex identity. This can include lacking any aspects of sex including genitals, gonads, hormones, or chromosomes. The term includes intersex people who were born sexless as well as people who became sexless later in life (desired/planned or not) and people who desire to be sexless. Examples of people who may identify as sexless include:


 * People born without genitals (agenital), and people who have had their genitals removed or people who desire to not have genitals (angenital).
 * People born without gonads or functioning gonads (gonadal agenesis), and people who have had their gonads removed or people who desire to not have gonads (angonadal).
 * People with Turner syndrome (X0 intersex).
 * People who are hypohormonal or have hypogonadism.
 * People who are indifferent about their sex (apagenital).

Sexlessness does not correspond to any particular gender, and does not require any corresponding feeling of genderlessness. Agender people are not necessarily sexless and sexless people are not necessarily agender.
