O- RH- here.
I've been trained in Phlebotomy and thankfully all of my paternal and maternal side are O-, as well as my daughter, so our family unit has plenty of
blood donors.
I'm not quite sure if I can swallow the list of traits the previous poster made about Type O- Blood Types. All I can say for sure is that my daughter
and I both need Taurine and B12 (
read: "red meat") at least twice a week or we start looking at cats, dogs, and other humans as potential food
sources, and I have had an undeniable innate desire to mate with redheads ever since puberty (
my daughter is the first redhead in either my
paternal or maternal line, although in her own maternal line she is just another redhead in a long line of them).
The other thing that is common to both sides of my family (
not sure if it is due to Blood Type or some other genetic factor) is we all have the
exact same prescription for glasses (
no acuity or fine-focus)...and I mention this because every single one of my red-headed girl-friends have
had the same eye prescription as well...and we are platelet factories, producing anti-bodies for things like Rabies, Tetanus and against hundreds of
Parasitic Infections (
things which we have never come in contact with but the immunity for which has been passed down through the
generations).
