These are traits that are linked to the sex chromosomes.
Only males can get Y-linked traits because only males have a Y chromosome.
(Note: it's a bit more complicated that even this explanatin, but this is the general idea)
If the father has the X-linked trait he can only pass it down to daughters. If the mother has the trait, the daughter might not have the trait because the father's donated X-chromosome might have a gene that masks it.
If a son gets donated an X-chromosome from the mother with the trait, he will definitely show the trait.
