Why does a female with a gene for a sex-linked disorder usually appear normal?

A female with a gene for a genetic disorder will usually only have it on one of her two X chromosomes. The other chromosome will carry the healthy version of the gene, which will carry out that gene's function when the other chromosome cannot. Males will exhibit the disease if they have the gene as a male human only has one X chromosome. So, in order for a female to have a genetic disorder carried on her sex chromosome her mother would have to have the defective gene and her father would have the disorder.
