I appreciate your civil response. So, this word has been used as a slur against intersex people (people born with or who in puberty developed genitalia or sex charasteristics differing from the concepts of 'male' and 'female') since the middle ages and has had a long history of violence, such as forced genital mutilation and infanticide, behind it. It often is conflated to mean someone or something possessing both a penis and a vagina, who is typically capable of both impregnanting and becoming pregnant. (it should be noted that this does not occur in humans without body modification!) Because of this, the h-word was later (19th or 20th century iirc) used by scientists to describe cosexual animals and plants because someone was too lazy to come up with a new term that didn't have truckloads of baggage attached to it. Thus leading to what we're talking about.
