The code may also refer to his secret Canadian citizenship by using the airport code for Abbotsford, BC. I demand to see an audiospectrograph of him saying the word "about"!

Perhaps, but you are treading dangerously close to Andrew Sullivan level conspiracy theorizing here.

The syndrome is almost always refered to as "XXY" rather an "YXX". It usually causes a markedly feminized outward appearance. And it usualy causes infertility, althrough apparently IVF methods can be used to get 'round that.

@2,

That's just part of the clever coverup.

He should be more concerned that public release of the karyogram will determine his precise placement within the genus Marmota.

Oh, I just love this petty bullshit! Give em hell, Goldy!

Goldy are you doing this to help Mitt Romney or what? We want them to invest as much in Trump as they can -- hopefully give him the nom even. With Sarah Palin as VP. And some Santorum clinging around there somewhere.

Making more of a fool of Trump just makes it easier for them to fall in line behind Mitt.

David Wright,

Usually, but not always. There are plenty examples in the medical literature of YXX being used (e.g.). After all, it is simply a physical description of the chromosomes present.

The link between Kleinfelder syndrome and the karyotype XXY was only a decade old at the time of Trump's medical exam, and the development of an international system for human cytogenetic nomenclature would not be published for another decade following his exam.

I believe Klinefelter causes a low sex drive. If Trump has that disorder, it must be/have been a great relief to his trophy wives.
9
Klinefelter Syndrome typically causes infertility and moobs.

@9,

Well then, I think it is also incumbent upon Trump to provide birth certificates and proof of paternity for all his "children."
11
There is no limit to the stupidity of American voters. If Trump is nominated, Republicans will vote for him. It really doesn't matter who the Republican nominee is.
12
I love how Goldy is being tongue-in-cheek but Darryl is all super serious.
13
Forget the medical records ...I'm wondering if Trump is even an Earthling.

I mean ...have you ever seen hair like that on a human? He actually reminds me of one of the bizarre paper-mache-masked characters in the old Outer Limits show - which was always good for a laugh.

So how 'bout it Donald? ...take us to your ship & end the speculation once & for all about UFOs.
14
@11, good point, but sadly that means you are calling most Dems (myself included) stupid as well. I would vote for a trained chimp before I would vote for 99.99% of the morons that the Republicans nominate.
15
Just FTR in regards to Klinefelter's: it doesn't always lead to a feminized appearance, nor does it lead to a low sex drive. It can, but certainly not always. The horniest bastard I know has it. He doesn't receive testosterone injections, but is perfectly ordinary in appearance and would hump the wind if he could get it to stand still long enough.
16
@10 - Even in jest, I could never bring myself to believe that Don Trump is anything other than the biological child of The Donald. He's practically a fucking clone.

Goldy:

Your post kinda' suggests: (psssst, guess what! Trump maybe intersexed! ha! innut that funny!)

and then add this one:
http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archive…

Remember when Dan did something similar and called McKenna FTM? yeah. . . that was hilarious. . .

+ using Klinefelter as a cause for "bizarre behavior" and "faulty memory" is just plain old offensive.
18
Why hasn't he released his moobs?
19
Also, the Selective Service didn't even start using the lottery until the 1970 draft. Low numbers bad, high numbers good.

@17 - XXYs are the same as transexuals - is that what you're saying? You realize that one of the possible symptoms of Klinefelter's is reduced cognitive function, right? Oh, wait - is that offensive to say?
21
@20:

No that's not what I'm saying.

What I'm saying is Goldy is suggesting that Trump is intersexed in the same way Savage suggested McKenna was transsexual. . . They used the same way to poke fun at a right winger - one used transsexual the other used intersexed.

not sure how you got intersexed = transsexual in that, but anyhoo.

making an analogy doesn't say they're the same thing.

In any event. . . yes it's offensive to say XXY = "Bizarre behavior." As far as "reduced cognitive function?" well. . .

"Current studies have shown that the diagnosis of Kline- felter syndrome does NOT indicate mental retardation, deviant behavior, or other broad generalizations. Most individuals diagnosed with this condition have average to superior intelligence with only about 20% scoring below average on standardized intelligence tests."

Are xxy and transsexualism related? dunno but:

"Preliminary data indicate that a higher number of cases of gender identity disorder are specifically associated with Klinefelter syndrome;"
http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/91…

whateve's. straw man argument = -1.
22
Why do people trying to enter the political arena lie about things that are SO EASY to prove wrong? And sometimes quite FUNNY to prove wrong.
23
About one in 1000 boys are born with Klinefelters; it's the most common cause of male infertility; but it is sometimes possible to have children anyway. Sperm from folks with Klinefelters are more likely to have the wrong number of chromosomes ("aneuploidy"), but they can also have comparatively normal sperm. Here is an article about all this.
