It's complicated. Maybe we should talk more about hermaphrodite/intersex individuals. Is there a rule? Or an exception to the rule?

"In humans, the term "hermaphrodite" is outdated and considered derogatory; the correct term is "intersex," which refers to individuals born with sex characteristics that do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies. Intersex conditions can involve variations in chromosomes, gonads, or genitals, and are extremely rare."

Their gotcha question never seems to get there.
