Summary

DescriptionAndrophilia-gynephilia.png	English: Diagram comparing sex and sexual orientation conceptualizations: male/female matrix androphilic/gynephilic matrix homosexual/heterosexual matrix (first two combined) The terms male and female describe a person on one axis: the person's sex. The terms androphilic and gynephilic describe a person on one axis: the person's object of attraction. The terms homosexual and heterosexual describe a person on two axes: the person's sex and their object of attraction. The terms Androphilia and gynephilia are used for identifying a person's object of attraction without attributing a sex assignment or gender identity to the person. This can avoid confusion and offense when describing people in non-western cultures, as well as when describing intersex and transgender people. (Not to scale. Chart depicts a conceptual matrix, not proportions or prevalence.)
