Ambiguous Name: Everybody Wants The Hermaphrodite

Everybody Wants the Hermaphrodite's description says that it's "When a hermaphrodite, intersex, or otherwise androgynous character is so attractive that they inspire worship and desire in both males and females ... The idea is that no matter what gender you like, this person has some characteristics of that". Both the on-page and off-page examples show a wide range of usage, though, and the name has come up before on the Trope names with outdated and/or offensive language thread, as 'hermaphrodite' is today considered an outdated and offensive way to refer to intersex people.

Wick check results:

• Intersex character is lusted after for being intersex: 22%
• Intersex character is lusted after for being androgynous: 4%
• Non-intersex character is lusted after for being androgynous: 8%
• Intersex character is portrayed as the most attractive person in the work: 8%
• Intersex or transgender character happens to be attractive/have a love interest: 10%
• People who can shapeshift are attractive: 2%
• ZCEs and potholes: 24%
• JFF, sandboxes, etc.: 14%
• Other misuse: 8%

So, there's 3 tropeworthy ways this is being used: Androgyny is portrayed as attractive, regardless of the gender or intersex status of the androgynous person (12%), intersex people are portrayed as attractive due to either being naturally androgynous or from fetishized by other characters (26%), or an intersex person is the most attractive person within a work (as considered by other characters), sometimes supernaturally so (8%). Interestingly, none of the examples I found talked about the characters being nonbinary, apart from Transgender Tropes entry that implied being androgynous and being nonbinary were the same thing.

I suggest narrowing the defintion to be about works portraying intersex people in paticular as intrinsically attractive rather than intersex + androgynous people in general (since most the examples are about intersex people already), rename, and send the 'androgyny is attractive regardless of gender' idea to the Salvage Yard.

9. Literature.Phryne Fisher: Deconstructed in Blood and Circuses. Mr. Christopher the intersex circus performer attracts a wide range of admirers, but it does not end well.

10. Literature.Jacobs Ladder Trilogy: Mallory, the self-chosen hermaphrodite necromancer, invokes this when trying to talk Rien into having sex by insinuating that it's more interesting with a partner who is both male and female in one. It works on Rien, though whether this trope holds true for everyone else on their Small, Secluded World Colony Ship or Mallory is just starved for attention remains unclear.
11. Bisexuality Tropes: Hermaphrodites have something to offer to any gender preference.

1. Characters.Terra Ignota: Sniper is an androgynous celebrity who is able to pose as both a man and a woman and deliberately keeps their gender secret, selling sex dolls of themself of either sex. It goes so far that Sniper gets kidnapped occasionally by fans wanting more than just the doll. One character who does that during the story finds out that Sniper actually has both sexual organs and wonders if they were born like that or had had surgery to prevent disappointing fans, seeing as Sniper is not above engaging in the oldest profession for fun.

1. Characters.Codex Equus Equestrian Pantheon: Though androgynous, they're stunningly beautiful. They managed to get Stoltur completely smitten to the point of expressing his desire to "bang" them, though this might be because one of their components is Stoltur's husband, Caerulus Melodia. For their part, they know this and has returned Stoltur's affections, but never moves past flirting out of respect for Winter Opera. That being said, they don't like being objectified for their beauty.

2. Characters.The Secret World Tokyo NP Cs: Subverted. Kaoru has been forced to endure a great deal of prejudice and cruelty from people who have learned her secret. So far, the only person who's displayed any sort of sexual interest after learning the truth is Ricky Pagan, but thanks to their disastrous breakup, Kaoru refuses to believe him. This is Intersex Tribulations
3. Characters.Fullmetal Alchemist Envy: Envy's default form is attractive, androgynous, and they wear a revealing outfit that shows off their muscles and curves. This is a fan reaction; no one in-universe thinks Envy is attractive
4. Characters.Dungeons And Dragons Races: Subverted; the hermaphroditic lizardfolk are regarded as holy, being made in Semuanya's image, but their intelligence alienates them from their mono-gendered kinsfolk, who regard intelligence as an unnatural and undesirable trait. Furthermore, they're sterile, so they can't have children anyway. Not sure what trope this is, but I don't think this is a subversion
