Intersexual. People that are born with both male and female genitals.
That happens more often than you might think. There are quite a number
of sub-groups in this category. In the past the doctor would ask the
parents if they wanted a boy or a girl, and then cut away the surplus
parts. Not such a clever idea, because it was impossible to know how
such a child would identify itself later on in life. These days any
cutting is done when a child is old enough to decide for itself, or no
cutting at all.
