'''Duosex''' refers to those whose internal sense of [[gender]]/[[sex]] is both [[male]] and [[female]]. One may undergo HRT, surgery, etc, to give their body the sex characteristics of both sexes. For [[AFAB]] individuals, this may include getting metoidioplasty, but no vaginectomy.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/truscum/comments/ou7nk9/terms_for_dysphoric_nonbinary_people/ Definition]</ref> |

'''Duosex''' is an identity in which a [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] individual feels a connection to both the male and female [[Sex|sexes]]. It was originally meant to be an alternative term for "non-binary" and was created by [[Transmedicalism|transmedicalists]] as an exclusive label for those with [[dysphoria]]. |

Alternatively, duosex can also refer to those who feel a connection to both the male and female sexes, regardless of gender or [[:Category:Gender Sonance|gender sonance]]. |
