I see things otherwise. For me, "sex-limited" is a nerd who walks into a bar full of babes, "sex-influenced" is that same nerd spending all his money there... and still getting nothing

Lol.
Now, for real. I fail to see exactly how can a gene be influenced by hormones if when genes are created there are no hormones there yet (?). All creatures are sexless for the first days of life (or, in theory, all females)and when they develop to run on hormones of their own - not mother's - they already have a defined genetic structure. I would say things happen some other way... as if some genes rull out others. But i don't know for sure.
