Used to refer to someone who has an attractive face, but an unattractive body. In ancient Greece, a herm (from Hermes) was a long standing block of stone on top of which was carved a man's head. These blocks were otherwise unshaped, but included the frequent presence of genitalia. Extended in contemporary usage to include members of both sexes and all genders, the word is meant to indicate that the only distinguishing and redeemable features of a particular individual are their face and their genitals.
