Thread: Hemophilia?

So hopefully some medical expertise is available to answer this one it's been bugging me since this afternoon.
I gave blood this afternoon, I filled out the standard questionnaire, Do you use intervenous drugs? Have you ever had sex for drugs or money? Have you recently been treated for an STD? Sexual contact with anyone with HIV or Hepatitis? Been in jail lately? etc. All very understandable questions for someone donating blood, right?

Then there was one I totally didn't get, "Have you had sex with anyone that has hemophilia?" Couple things here, most hemophiliacs are men and being about as hetrosexual as they come, even if I had multiple partners, a hemophiliac would be a virtual impossiblity. Then I started thinking, wait, hemophilia is a genetic disorder, one of those things that you either have or don't have and certainly can't give to someone else even with sexual contact. So, if I was a woman and had regular sexual contact with a hemophiliac man, what would that have to do with my blood? Perhaps the risk of a hemophiliac receiving HIV contaminated blood (back in the 70's or 80's)?
