Yeah, I know, but hemophilia is more common among men, like you said. Maybe it's a trick-question, he wants us to explain the principles without being able to directly find them on wikipedia for example by reading the page about the specific disease, so it requires more over-all knowledge if you know what I mean. I've asked this question on several other forums as well, and no one can think of any such disease. Thanks everybody, and if you come pu with one, feel free to post

I don't really know (since it's not my question - it's homework), probably the former because we've recently studied genetics. I need to answer WHY, but I don't even know of any diseases!

I know there are blood diseases only men can recieve, but what about women? I have asked on several forums but no one seems to know about any. I'm doing this for biology class and we have recently studied genetics. We haven't been taught about this, it's a more difficult question. The question is why, but I don't even know of any diseases. So does anyone know? Thanks!
