On the whole I think that, while people may get some knee-jerk lashing out at what is different - a hermaphrodite may get out of some OVERT prejudice trouble because their bodies are what they were born with and there's (at least openly) an idea that that's a very unfair thing to give someone shit about

That's the way I think it would be to me. But then if there isn't prejudice for how someone was specifically born, there could be re-directed prejudice towards parents who didn't "Fix you when they had the chance".I really gotta wonder. Maybe I'm just weird for trying to think of these things since I may never find myself in a position to ask and actual Hermaphrodite, but I'm a Gamer, and a writer and for the sake of being informed and may present characters realistically I have to wrap my brain around every concept, including the concepts of other people's characters.
