I think next year I am going to try some femmed seed since my natural seed this year, out of 10 seeds, gave me 2 hermies, 2 males, one died and that left me with 5 plants which are doing great, already harvested one and a half:-)))
No. Seeds from a self pollinated hermie will almost always be a female plant. The same does not go for clones though.

To answer the original question, the "problem" you say you have is actually quite the opposite. Males plants produce pollen sacs that will hang off the plant and split open, showing what looks like a tiny little bunch of bananas. Female plants grow tiny teardrop shaped flowers (calyx) with white hairs called pistils that eventually turn red or brown as the plant matures. Only females can produce seeds- and only of a male is present to pollinate it.
