I could be way off the mark here...
but perhaps it might make sense to consider all Cannabis to be intersex to one degree or another. Although there may not be any "true" males or females, the hybrid strains most grow today (any given individual) might be 95% male/5% female or 99% female/1% male, or something along those lines.
It might also be worth considering that intersex traits are a type of survival mechanism, and perhaps (I'm just speculating) we are taking landraces that grow normally (without intersex expression for the most part) in the environment that they have been acclimatized to over many generations, but once taken out of that environment (stuffed into tiny pots Vs growing in open ground, given artificial light Vs real sun, etc...) a high proportion express intersex traits due to the stress of not growing in conditions they are used to.
Perhaps someone who has spent time with the same landrace grown under both these types of conditions could offer some insights here, but I suspect people like that are as rare as hen's teeth...
