One of the most baffling phenomena concerning human gender disorders is androgyny, which is defined as being physically male and female in one. An androgyne is also referred to as a hermaphrodite. Many have mistakenly confused androgyny with bisexuality, which is a psychological condition. Only in rare cases are humans born with both male and female sexes. Estimates reveal that approximately 1% of the population is born with these traits.
Many cultures view androgyny in a mythical sense when one of their offspring is born with this affliction, as something both to be obtained and dreaded. For example, according to the Encyclopedia Britannica Macropedia, the Dogon African tribe has a myth of creation, which they believe that androgyny is a sign of perfection (Vol. 5, p. 240). The Greeks concept of the hermaphrodite and how the sexes were created and separated is described in Plato's writing "Symposium." In it, the character Aristophanes describes two humans joined as one, which Zeus decides to split in half. Each of these beings was globular in shape, with rounded back and sides, four arms and four legs, and two faces, both the same, on a cylindrical neck, and one head, with one face on side and one the other, and four ears, and two lots of privates, and all the other parts to match [see the website parallel.park.uga.edu...].
It should also be noted that many cultures' gods were androgynous. For example, the Hindu god Shiva is often depicted as half man and woman. In addition, both male and female hormones are found in both sexes. What is the intent of this article? This article will explain the origin and purpose of androgyny in accordance to the purpose, pattern and plan of Elohim who is male and female within Himself. Modern science has been unable to explain why this phenomenon exists. It will also show that androgyny symbolizes a spiritual principle that is three-fold and reflected on three levels: physical, psychological, and spiritual.
Most important is that all humans are androgynous with respect to our souls and there is a psychological component of androgyny that we all have to develop if we are to grow on a spiritual level. In short, Adam with Eve in him is the model for us all, for our soul is the woman that is giving birth to the man-child Yahshua. Finally, this article will explain how various cultures have dealt with androgyny.

Whoever asked what gender are Aliens, seems to be someone who hasn't studied their demonology and came to the conclusion like most Astro Physicists have, that these things are Demonic and not Intergalactic like we think because if they were we would've sensed the traffic on our radars by now!!

No sex? I doubt it. I would say God is every sex.

The condition is somehow beneficial physically, mentally, and spiritually if you are up to it, but I have yet to test the 'sexual' part of it
