Though initially appearing to disguise her gender to deflect criminal suspicion (a genderplay trope Marston incorporated into several other foes he created to battle Wonder Woman, including Doctor Poison and the Blue Snowman), Hypnota made subsequent Golden Age appearances in her masculine stage garb; even after her supposedly \"true\" gender identity was revealed, she chose to present as a man \u2013 a move that might be understood in the 21st century as genderqueer.
