Yes. Like any other mutation in chromosomes; this gene may be recessive to you and remain dormant throughout your lifetime. Unfortunately this is innate, so that would make you, or whomsoever is in question, a carrier of the gene. Thus Sociopathy will rear it's ugly head in either your offspring; or if you are really lucky, skip and appear in your offspring's offspring. The only way to attempt to minimize your chances of producing more Sociopaths is to choose a mate with no Sociopathy and or Psychopathy in his or her family history.

Does hemophilia skip a generation?

Haemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder - which means it can skip a generation, but only if it is carried in the female line.A female can be a carrier of haemophilia, but a male cannot. This is because males only have one X chromosome, so if they have a defective X they will have the disorder. If a father has haemophilia, all of his daughters will also have haemophilia.
