ng feature is the
incomplete, irregular, or absent hair development. Below thirty it is
chubby and ruddy, and rather childish in its texture; after thirty,
there is an effect of premature senility: the skin is yellowish,
leathery, and wrinkled as the faces of old women are wrinkled: the
upper lip is traversed by vertical wrinkles, and wrinkles come around
corners of the mouth. The expression is juvenile, effeminate or
plaintive.

Invariably the voice is higher pitched than the usual masculine tones.
It may be gentle and subdued, like a genteel female's, or strident and
rasping. Occasionally it is a pleasant high tenor. The Adam's apple,
poetic popular name for the thyroid cartilage, is never prominent,
because it is not ossified, as it should be in the normal male.

Tall and slender, or generally undersized, the muscles are soft
and flabby as a woman's. The hands and feet are small and gracile
typically. Viewed in profile, the lines of the body are feminine. The
breasts may reach almost the size of the female's and there may be a
well-marked area of pigmentation around the nipple. The hair growth
under the shoulders and on the lower abdomen tends to be scanty and to
approximate the opposite sex in quality and distribution, as do the
reproductive organs themselves.

These traits of physiognomy and physique indicate functional
hermaphroditism in the underlying feminoid constitution. The feminoid
constitution appears again in the supposedly masculine. The feminoid
constitution should not be confused with the infantiloid constitution.
The former, the gonado-centric personality, is a digression of growth,
a deviated evolution of the individual because of the conflicting
forces, some masculine and some feminine, in his make-up. The
infantiloid constitution is one of arrested development, and may
center around the arrested function in childhood or adolescence of
any one or a number of endocrine glands. Yet the two may resemble one
another pretty closely, at times. A cretin imitates the extreme grade
of infantiloid constitution. The infantiloid is a sort of enlarged and
lengthened child. The feminoid is ostensibly a man, with a good deal
of woman in him. The infantiloid is a quite general type, but of
course when typical is a freak, recognized and treated as such. How
far the eunuchoid may deviate from the normal is suggested by the
following description of one.

"Face rounded, moon-like, chubby, devoid of hair. Eyes puffe
