Hermaphrodites In Hollywood

Hermaphroditism is a sex development disorder in which a person is born with both male and female gene tails or traits. They are often called Intersex, Androgynous, In-Between, Gender Benders, Hijras, and Eunuch. The reproductive organs might be fully or partially developed and can be at various developing stages. Therefore, the people who are stuck with both the reproductive organs are called hermaphrodites and their condition falls under the term “Hermaphroditism”.

I agree the term as I understand it has been grossly misused to classify a natural physical occurrence (anomaly) with more of what seems to be lifestyle choices based on sexual preferences or feelings. I truly feel for the parents and children that have both organs and are forced (by nature) to make a choice.
