Most bloggers fear the sun. HA!

Great stuff. Learned a lot here.

I have to say, I was at odds with the term conflicted and leaning towards the more positive balance, but now that I've got it. . . I just don't know. Conflicted is sexy. Balance, as you say, boring unless you're on a high wire. And then that's where the hermanintites come in. Of course, we're not talking about me, but about my ONE TRUE LOVE. And. . . oh crap. Now I'm confused. (P.S. Such a fabulously great study, Dr. J. Really, scarily right on. I think. Um, there's a privacy clause, right?)

S: You should just make sure you never date another person who is perfect - it rarely works out. Look what happened to Brad and Gwyneth.
TS: Thank you for the clarification! And I would never call you a freak! But if you keep running around town hugging hermaphrodites, people might start to talk. I'm totally cool with it, but I'm just saying.

I’m not a Hermaphrodite Hater (HH). In fact, I’m entirely pro-hermaphrodite. If there was a hermaphrodite next to me right now, I’d hug him/her.
I’ll take balanced. As a Libra, balanced is satisfying. You might say I’m a balance-freak, that is, if you were a Libra Hater (LH).

You know…no matter who I’m attracted to, I take great comfort in the fact that at least I’m perfect…

R: I think I kind of like the idea of this blog as a luxurious, overpriced, entertaining sinking ship.
A: The remember me problem will seriously push me over the edge! I spent hours trying to fix the problem – there’s some bug w/ Movable Type that should be able to be fixed easily, but I’m just dumb and can’t figure it out. Drives me nuts! If any smart people can email me advice, I’ll dedicate my next paint-by-number to you…
TS: Why are you hatin’ on the hermaphrodites? You don’t like conflicted. You don’t like hermaphrodite. Okay – how about “balanced?” Is that better? Boring, but better. (But oh, the temptation to google hermaphrodite stats is great…)

Dear Dr. Jenny,
This entire “Hermaphrodite” thing has taken me by surprise! I suggest you check your data as the majority of those you studied fell into that category; oh, and I suggest that you not visit websites based upon the Google search of the phrase, “Hermaphrodite Statistics” because you will be asking for trouble.
I agree that you should be syndicated in spite of this hermaphrodite debacle.

No matter how many times I tell your comments page to remember me I get the blank stare. everytime.
I heart grounded? I am not suprised. I never did grow roots and got tangled with someone who never grew trailing vines. Hooray for science!!!

Dear Worried:
No need to worry. I'm sure your husband is grounded. You just aren't really attracted to him, according to my research. Ha. Just a little PhD humor. Ahem.
A few other people have expressed their concern with the term "Conflicted." It means conflicted only in the sense that they do not possess primarily masculine or primarily feminine traits, but are a blend of both. It has been suggested that I change the label, so to appease the masses, I will change the label to "Hermaphrodite."
Keep those questions coming!
