Question
Is marriage permissible with a hermaphrodite?
Answer
By hermaphrodite we understand a person with both male and female organs. If the sex of this person cannot be determined by way of one organ being functional, not the other, then marriage to such a person is not permissible. It is necessary to determine the sex of this person before marriage could be permissible.
