Properly? That's a pretty nebulous term. She's certainly not female in psychological nor legal terms, which tends to be the criteria used when deciding on appropriate honorifics. Anatomically speaking, trying to shoehorn an intersexed person into a narrow category is a highly inadequate way of looking at atypical sexes. Klinefelter's syndrome doesn't "affect" males, it's merely a description of a non-typical chromosome pattern which is over-simplistically categorised as "male, but kinda different".
It most likely wouldn't be an interesting discussion, so I'll agree with your insinuation that it shouldn't be discussed any further. This is a James Bond topic on a tabletop wargaming board. I was foolish to even make that comment. I should have mentioned laser watches instead.
