Dyadic
▲* Have XX chromosomes.
▲* Was born with external genitals which were identified as a vagina/vulva.
▲* Was born with a uterus and ovaries.
▲* Upon natural puberty, experienced development of secondary sex characteristics indicative of increased estrogen levels.
▲2) [[AMAB]] dyadic:
▲* Have XY chromosomes.
▲* Was born with external genitals which were identified as a penis and scrotum.
▲* Was born with testes.
▲* Upon natural puberty, experienced development of secondary sex characteristics indicative of increased testosterone levels.
▲Dyadic people that meet these qualification are typically AMAB, although, not all AMAB people are dyadic.
If someone meets some, but not all the requirements of a certain category, or meets some requirements in both categories, they can be considered intersex. If someone is born dyadic, but changes their sex characteristics later in life (either through surgery or [[Hormone Replacement Therapy|HRT]]), such that they no longer meet the qualifications listed above they may identify as [[altersex]] and/or [[transsex]].
The term is not an identity by itself. It was created by the intersex community as a way to describe those who are not intersex, to avoid referring to non-intersex
