One's assigned sex at birth (ASAB) is typically used to determine one's [[Assigned Gender|assigned gender at birth]] (AGAB). It is typically male ([[AMAB]]), female ([[AFAB]]), or intersex ([[AXAB]]), though intersex babies are often given non-consensual surgery so their body is closer to male or female. One is typically raised with the assumption that one will identify with their gender assigned at birth, though assigned sex does not determine one's gender later in life. ASAB |

One is typically raised with the assumption that one will identify with their gender assigned at birth, though assigned sex does not determine one's gender later in life. ASAB is not always one's actual sex, as some intersex people are assign male or female at birth, because their condition of intersex either is not externally obvious or did not present itself until puberty. |
