Intersex Loving Intersex (ILI), also known as I4I (Intersex For Intersex), is a term for intersex individuals who are either exclusively or primarily attracted to other intersex individuals, or emphasize or prioritize their attraction and relationships with other intersex individuals, celebrating intersex love.
The unwillingness to date perisex people stems from issues of safety, trauma, oppression, or other personal reasons. One may prefer an intersex partner because one would relate to them more. One may also not want to be vulnerable to misconceptions, misgendering, or oppression from a perisex partner.
