How could that person not have committed suicide? Has he? Must have. Seriously, who could live?

That show was so weird, during the college years the TV lounge would be full of us kids, watching it, and unable to remember if we were high or not. ;^)

I actually have XYY. I discovered it bc I participated in a test for genealogy of known Cohens. Both are the same and both my fathers.

They used to think XYY were prone to being criminals and thugs and less intelligent. Not true. I went to MIT and not exactly a lifetime criminal, unless you count speeding.

What is true is male secondary sex traits are slightly exaggerated. So I am a bit taller than I should be, am rather hirsute, have a pronounced chin, and always gained muscle very easily from exercise. Tend to smell rather, dank of I don’t shower a lot.

I am going to go ahead and go out on a limb and post without actually reading the article. (I know, who does that?)

Yes, I have to confess that I am one of the relatively few men that have the “Alpha Male” chromosome.

[snip] Turner syndrome, a condition that affects only females, results when one of the X chromosomes (sex chromosomes) is missing or partially missing. Turner syndrome can cause a variety of medical and developmental problems, including short height, failure of the ovaries to develop and heart defects. [/snip]

I carried it once, across the threshold but other than that, she’s kinda heavy.

I thought all babies were initially ‘female’ (X) and then the dumb ones (Y) develop a penis at about 60 days in utero? ;)

Can you cash it in for extra sex?

Explains why so many republican men in DC are such spineless wusses.

Whether XXY or XYY, the baby is born as a male, which means a good definition of a man is “has at least one Y chromosome”.
