People with Klinefelter's syndrome are not hermaphrodites, and people who are hermaphrodites do not have Klinefelter's syndrome.
What genotypes cause Klinefelter's syndrome?

Is klinefelter's syndrome a abnormality?
Klinefelter's syndrome is not considered to be a variation of normal, so by definition it is abnormal.
Does Klinefelter's syndrome affect a particular population or race?
No race is more likely to spontaneously have issues with meiosis, and as Klinefelter's is not hereditary (anyone with it is infertile and cannot pass on genes) no race will become more likely to have Klinefelter's syndrome. The population of older women who have children is more likely to have Klinefelter's babies. Older women are less likely to miscarry a baby with a chromosomal defect, so more Klinefelter's babies are born to them.
Which could be the genotype for a male suffering from Klinefelter's syndrome?
The genotype for a person suffering with Klinefelter's syndrome is XXY.
Are klinefelter syndrome and Turner syndrome results of nondisjunction of autosomes?
No, Klinefelter syndrome and Turner syndrome are the result of nondisjunction of sex chromosomes. Klinefelter syndrome is caused by an extra X chromosome (XXY), while Turner syndrome is due to a missing X chromosome (XO).
