That's a good one. "Hermaphrodite" is the correct term, but ignorant 13 year olds hear it as "morphadite" I guess. I am just calling it like it was back then.... Of course they had no idea what the heck they were talking about, but you know that doesn't matter a bit to kids picking on the oddball.

You know where the word came from, don't you? When the nymph Aphrodite was so taken with the beauty of the God Hermes, she made herself part of him and both then existed in the same body....That's how I understand the myth went.
