No, Barrow Wight, androgynous was the intended word. Check out the Oxford dictionary - androgynous can mean both hermaphroditic (i.e. both male and female) as well as, more broadly "of indeterminate sex'. The word androgynous contains more possibilities than the word hermaphroditic, and was thus more useful for the argument I presented. Actually, the term a-sexual might be a better option.
