-'''Hermaphroditism''' is the presence of both sets of [[sex]]ual [[organ]]s in an organism.  This occurs naturally in some animals, or may be an abnormality present at birth in a species in which it is not normal.
-The latter instance of abnormality occurs in humans at exceedingly rare interval; the individuals in question are generally not able to reproduce through [[sexual intercourse]].  [[Sigmund Freud]] held that all people were hermaphrodites while in the [[womb]], and that this stage affected human [[psychology]] permanently.  This view is contradicted by modern medical understanding of the process, however.
