Semisymmetry:

"Semisymmetry means that out of the six edges of a tetrahedron there are two pairs of symmetries.

"An isosceles is semisymmetric."

"Symmetry = equiangle

Semisymmetric = isosceles

Asymmetric = scalene

"People want to be either symmetric or asymmetric. They love bias, but the don't like isosceles, the fence-straddler. Real love is isosceles: inclusive but not exclusive. What people seem to mean by love is they want the other to join them: scalene. The real love includes the other; it is omni-inclusive, semisymmetric, isosceles."
