We are perisex. I was reading your intersex guide and I noticed that hypotonia is listed as a non-typical sex trait (albeit not an intersex trait). We have hypotonia, but we have not heard before about it being considered a sex trait. Would you be able to elaborate on this? I am curious about it. Thank you.
The reason why we listed it as a non-typical sex trait is because of how it influences muscular development in terms of secondary sex development.
Since people with an androgenized hormone profile tend to develop higher muscle mass, hypotonia can make it appear as though they are not hitting puberty fully, especially if they have severe hypotonia.
And people with an estrogenized hormone profile tend to have more curves, but hypotonia can cause differences in the amount of curvature. Obviously most curves come from fat tissue, but muscle tissue also plays a part in layering underneath the fat.
Hopefully this helps answer your question!
