David Attenborough told me today that slugs are hermaphrodites while centipedes have males and females. Useless information really, but it was something I didn't know before today.
Apparently most hermaphroditic animals are fish (not all of them but a far few species) or invertebrates including snails, worms and echinoderms (a marine invertebrate).
As a small aside, on 8 May this year David Attenborough will turn 89 years old! He was married at 24, and had two children, Robert and Susan. From this I'm assuming he wasn't a hermaphrodite.
Classic
