'''Altersex''' or '''Alteradic''' is a catch-all term to describe a state of having or desiring sex
[[Intersex]] individuals can also be altersex. Intersexness is not inherently altersex, as the variant sex characteristics are from birth, rather than being modified or changed later, or wanting variant sex characteristics that do not match their current sex characteristics.
Line 14:
Examples of real life individuals who may identify as altersex include:
* Individuals who were born [[dyadic]] but have medically changed their sex characteristics (through [[Hormone Replacement Therapy|HRT]] or surgery). Making it so their combination of chromosomes, primary, and secondary sex characteristics no longer strictly fits the definition of dyadic. However, they cannot be called intersex because they were not born with these variations. Someone who has this experience might consider themself to be [[transsex]].
*Intersex individuals who have medically changed their sex characteristics (through [[Hormone Replacement Therapy|HRT]] or surgery). Though they were not [[infrasex]] as they were not dyadic, their sex characteristics do not match the characteristics they had or would have had from birth, making them altersex. A individual who has this experience can also consider themself to be [[transsex]].
* Individuals who desire to change their body such that one has ambiguous sex characteristics or a mix of sex characteristics. Terms relating to this experience are [[salmacian]], [[afabris]], [[amabris]], [[AMAB-V|AMAB-V,]] [[AFAB-P]], and [[sinealt]], among others.
