In Greek mythology, Hermaphroditus or Hermaphroditos (Ancient Greek: Ἑρμαφρόδιτος) was the son of Aphrodite and Hermes. According to Ovid, born a remarkably handsome boy, he was transformed into an androgynous being by union with the water nymph Salmacis. His name is the basis for the word hermaphrodite.

Hermaphroditus, the two-sexed child of Aphrodite and Hermes (Venus and Mercury) had long been a symbol of androgyny or effeminacy, and was portrayed in Greco-Roman art as a female figure with male genitals. Theophrastus's account also suggests a link between Hermaphroditus and the institution of marriage. The reference to the fourth day of the month is telling: this is the luckiest day to have a wedding. Hermaphroditus's association with marriage seems to have been that, by embodying both masculine and feminine qualities, he symbolized the coming together of men and women in sacred union. Another factor linking Hermaphroditus to weddings was his parents' role in protecting and blessing brides.

Hermaphroditus's name is derived from those of his parents Hermes and Aphrodite. All three of these gods figure largely among erotic and fertility figures, and all possess distinctly sexual overtones. Sometimes, Hermaphroditus is referred to as Aphroditus. The phallic god Priapus was the son of Hermes in some accounts, and the youthful god of desire Eros of Hermes and Aphrodite.

389120 I humbly apologize for thinking only of myself when I made this group.

like girls and don't mind the extra bits

implying that straight women who don't mind the extra bits don't exist? Or are they all banned on sight?

"I'm a heterosexual male, but I sure do love penis."

Right.

366937 Gotcha. And I didn't make this group for that reason. And just because you like herms doesn't mean you want to suck them. There's also herm x female or herm x herm.

Though I can see that at first glance, this looks like a denial group. That was not the intent though.

I think you're missing the joke entirely

The joke is that the name of the group implies that all of you are trying to suck dick while screaming I AM STRAIGHT I AM STRAIGHT GET IT THROUGH YOUR DAMN TROLLIN SKULLS and it just doesn't work that way

366934 If you think it's that simple, I'm not going to argue with you parasprite? I may be bi with a "major" preference for female body. I just can't see myself being with a man. So I really don't know what I am. Anyways, to each their own.

366916 I don't know. Sexualities has too many greys areas. All I know is I like girls and I like herms (at least on the internet).

lel, wut.

I’ve always wondered. Can hermafroditas be gay? Or straight for that matter?

Oh! Hey! A group I could g—

Aww man. Not straight.

Fine, I'll go. And sit at the back of the bus.
