Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS) occurs when an individual has one X and one Y chromosome, but the body is unable to respond to androgens (male sex hormones). A person with complete AIS will develop female genitalia, while a person with partial AIS may have genitalia that appear mainly female, or mainly male, or anything in between.
