Also most of the males in my family are, so both grandparents must've had the gene. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-colorblind#post-692458 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 16:52:08 +0000 .twist. 692458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: I don't know that women "can't" be born colour blind but it is MUCH more rare (at least that's what I heard!). I could be wrong too. </p> <p>I've only ever known men to be colour blind and I've known quite a few of them. Never have I met a women who was colour blind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-colorblind#post-692449 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 16:48:26 +0000 MrsBrewer 692449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I heard that girls cannot be born color blind, and that only boys can? Hmmm Don't quote me on that, I could be totally wrong! But I thought I remembered hearing that somewhere! Something to the effect of only boys can be color blind genetically. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-colorblind#post-692439 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 16:45:09 +0000 banana 692439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pui: Phew! Good thing none of his kids got it! I heard (not sure) that it runs on the male side? I don't know. But I hope my daughter doesn't get it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-colorblind#post-692425 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 16:40:36 +0000 pui 692425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope!

He gets shades of reds and greens mixed up. I was afraid that my kids would get his color blind gene. So far my son is in the clear (we tested him at the optometrist). Not sure about my daughter yet though. </p>
