secondary sex character
Secondary sex characteristic refers to the physical traits, other than reproductive organs, that distinguish males from females within a species, but that are not directly part of the reproductive system. These characteristics generally emerge during puberty and can include features such as broader shoulders or facial hair in males, and breast development or wider hips in females. They are often influenced by hormonal differences between the sexes.
