Simply a trait or disorder that resides on one of the sex chromosomes. XX for female and XY for male. Since the X chromosome carries significantly more genes than the Y we see more traits and disorders appearing on this chromosome and also it is statistically more likely for males to express disorders on this chromosome, especially recessive, as they have only one X chromosome.
