How to cerate a gender-based trait?

[desrtucted]

I want to reduce health by 2 for all females above 30.  What do I do?

make an on_action that would fire on 30th birthday that would cause an effect, said effect would give any female that has reached 30 years of age said trait if she doesnt already have it, traits can be specified and gender restricted, its on wiki you can make the trait hidden and dont care about texture or describtion, in which case you would need to create just 3 files, one for on_action, other for the effect and third one for the trait

Could you specify which wiki is it? I've never created any mods for any game so a guideline would be nice.

This wiki.

A related quesion: Can traits have different effects dependig on the character's gender?

 

E.g., "Giant" in the base game has -5 attraction opinion. Would it be possible to have the trait give women +5 attraction opinion and men -5 attraction opinion (as an example) without having to create a whole new trait and worry about a whole lot of fiddly nonsense to get them to inherit properly.
