What is known as "True Hermaphroditism" it's not possible in humans because both the female and the male reproductive system share the same embryonic origin. What is classified in humans as biological inter-sexuality it's a physical condition per which the reproductive system has matured into a standstill between the male and female forms (normally the internal genitalia is of one sex and the external of the other but it depends on the causes). Technically, intersex can refer to a whole range of conditions where you have a combination of biologically male and biologically female features. It is true that there is no indication someone can be truly both male and female, though obviously that says nothing about the world of RWBY.
