Lots of people tweet a cool talk about X-inactivation and genes escaping from it. The thought makes me dysphoric; those would be genes with potentially karyotype-based dosage effects regardless of sex hormones. It’s only about 1% of human genes, but still. And many of them may still be hormone regulated etc. I wish I was a calico though. I am dysphoric about my non-mosaic status, and that is hard to fix. Meh.
If only I was Klinefelter. But there is some solace in the fact that in terms of X-inactivation escape, I am no less a woman than a Turner girl is. That does help.
