undersexed = undersex (semi-transparent) = under + sex + ed
The suffix '-ed' forms the adjective from 'undersex', but the specific meaning requires contextual knowledge.
Etymology
The word undersexed comes from the prefix under- meaning 'not enough' (as in underpaid or underfed) plus sexed, from sex meaning 'sexual activity or desire'. So undersexed describes someone who has less sexual desire or activity than is usual.
