‘I neither like nor dislike. The creature simply makes me uneasy. For one thing, it’s a grisly feeling to be dealing with a hermaphrodite.’
Al Doyle
It's fascinating that a world of hermaphrodites is genderphobic, a reversal of the transphobia of the real world. Trevize, also, shows is dicomfort with gender ambiguity, uncomfortable with not knowing what pronouns to use. Asimov is an excellent social critic, along with everything else that makes him great!
