Incest wasn't just a Royal thing, everybody did it. I mean *everybody*. Most people didn't leave the town or surrounding ones in which they where born, so the marriage pool was limited. Einstein married his second cousin. FDR his third. Bach his second. John Adams also his second. Mozart wrote erotic letters to his. Charles Darwin married his first cousin

It mentioned Hemophiliac’s contracting AIDS, which a cousin of mine with Hemophilia contracted and passed away from. I was fortunate to dodge AIDS but did contract Hepatitis C from a transfusion when I was a toddler. That virus was also nasty and destroyed my liver.

Incest wasn't the cause of Hemophilia. It was a random mutation that occurred in Victoria. Diseases don't arise due to incest. Incest increases the likelihood of already pre existent diseases being expressed. New blood keeps negative genes dormant or breeds them out. Despite the continued incest amongst Victoria's descendants, it seems to have been bred out and no female hemophiliacs were produced from a Male hemophiliac and a female carrier.

I have a factor 8 blood clotting disorder by the name Avon Wilibrand’s Disease and it’s basically the female version of hemophilia. It’s difficult sometimes, I have to get artificial blood coagulant infused through an IV before medical and dental procedures. It’s scary sometimes for me, especially frightening to me is how little is known about the disorder. Many, many people don’t know what hemophilia is and far less know what Von Wilibrand’s Disease is. In fact, besides my mother who also has it, which is the reason I was tested for it and because of my horrific bloody noses that seemed to never ever end, I’ve only met one other person with the disorder and nobody with hemophilia. But I call Von Wilibrand’s Disease the female version of hemophilia because 85% of people with hemophilia are male, while another equal 85% of people with Von Wilibrand’s Disease are female. By with it, I’m saying afflicted by it. As far as being carriers, I don’t know off the top of my head. But since this is so uncommon and barely even known about, I want to share about it because it’s very urgent for a parent to know if their child has either one of blood clotting disorders. I don’t believe there is anywhere near enough information out there for common people to know and understand what it is even though it’s extremely vital to know if you or your child has a blood clotting disorder. So especially around puberty, if your child has severe, long lasting bloody noses and with young females very heavy periods and especially if you or anyone in your family could be considered a bleeder, definitely get tested. The testing now is already so much simpler than it was in the 90’s where they would actually make several cuts into your skin with what looks like prongs and then time it to see how long it takes to clot. Now it’s just a simple blood test to check how long your blood takes to clot. Much easier and with much much less pain and much less time. Just my strong suggestion for parents of children with a lot of bloody noses. Definitely better safe than sorry!!!

Ryan White was one of those unfortunate recipients of HIV tainted blood. I remember seeing his story as a kid.

[@paintedpony6394]

Well my Son has hemophilia b severe. Through testing it was found out he got it from me as it is on one of my X chromosomes. No one in my family has hemophilia or in his Fathers side. Tests proved I was what they call a spontaneous mutation of the genes. No royal family heritage or interbreeding caused it. So like the Queen she most likely was a spontaneous mutation as well. Gave it to her Sons and all girls she’d have are all carriers. So it wouldn’t matter if the Queen and her family interbred or not as she would pass it to her children and they’d be carriers. It’s a misconception that it started and is a cause of inbreeding.

[@chadmensa]

The thing about recessive genes is that they're, well, recessive; their qualities don't usually manifest unless the child gets two copies of them. Therefore, when there's incest involved the offspring have a much higher probability of getting the recessive "bad" gene from both parents, allowing the condition to manifest. This might not be the case in your situation, but it is at the core of why we believe incest to be "wrong".

[@paintedpony6394]

Chad Mensan my Son got it because one of my X chromosomes has the disorder. So he picks up a Y chromosome from his Father and one X chromosome from me. He had a 50/50 chance of not getting it if he picked the other X and we would’ve never known I was a carrier UNTIL my Daughters decide to have children and there’s still a 50/50 chance. It’s strange how that all works. Fate could’ve been different for my whole family. Now if my girls want to have children they have to invetro an egg that is fertilized without the bad X. Ughh, so difficult.

[@courtneynoorda]

@@chadmensa i'm a little confused. my brother has hemophilia and it's been in my family for like over six generations, but i really can't figure out how inbreeding can cause it. because when an egg is fertilized, the mother gives an X chromosome to the baby (and there is only two X's. a "good X" and a "bad X") so there's a 50/50 chance the baby will get the bad X (whether it's a boy or a girl) and if it's a boy then it shows symptoms of the disease, because the boys don't have another chromosome with factor. girls however don't become hemophiliacs (unless it's a super rare scenario) and are carriers because they have another X chromosome that they can rely on. basically, when a person has hemophilia it is solely because of the mothers bad X chromosome. it has nothing to do with the dads. so how on earth would inbreeding cause it?

This is one of the only things I remember from biology class so let me share it with you: Hemophilia is resessive and inherited through the x chromosome (meaning both chromosomes would have to carry it for women to get sick) that's why mostly men are affected directly while women mostly only carry it and give it to their children without having it themselves or knowing it's in their genes, because they likely have the second healthy x chromosome (pretty unlikely that both your mom and dad have hemophilia AND then there is still a 50/50 chance you'll get the healthy chromosome from your mom) I think that's it If something that I said is wrong please correct me. It's been a while since I had biology

[@2-d_in_a_bag]

you're right. i did a project on it in high school a few years ago. funny enough, i had the exact same assignment (it was genetic disorders or something) in both parenting and biology at the same time (and chose haemophilia for both) so i just gave them each the one project XD

Heck - and compare it to today! I'm old enough to remember being shown pads that clipped onto elastic belts during a girl's health class in 1973 at age 10, but thankfully stick-on pads were introduced not long after. IMO, the best-ever invention is the cup! Anyway, the US still persists in taxing period products, Scotland just made news for making them absolutely free, and yet there are places in the world that still banish menstruating women to a freaking hut for one week a month.

A friend of my family has hemophilia. His mom was always worried about him hurting himself. My mom was one of the few people she trusted. He’s now a grown man and still remembers his childhood fondly, referring to my mom as his second mother. Because of medical advances, he’s been able to live a regular life. I can’t imagine how hard it was for hemophiliacs to live with subpar medicine.

My wife's father contracted HIV from a blood infusion, and died not from Hemophilia, but the process that was supposed to help him. He died from AIDS, after being chair-bound for years due to injuries from Hemophilia. One guy I met said that his daughter had Hemophilia, without the family history. It apparently can randomly mutate, and females can have it.

Queen Victoria was a carrier of hemophilia thru her mother, Marie Victoria (b. 17 Aug 1786, d. 16 March 1861). Queen Victoria came from her mom’s 2nd marriage to Prince Edward, 4th son of King George III. Marie Victoria’s 1st marriage ( with Carl Friedrick Wilhelm) produced two children, the oldest daughter, Anna Feodora, was also a carrier, who passed it down thru her daughter Adelheid of Hohenzollern-Langenburg. Marie’s Victoria son, Carl - (3rd Prince of Leningen & 1/2 brother to Queen Victoria of England) died of hemophilia. Adelheid, daughter of Anna Feodora and niece to Queen Victoria of England, was also a carrier. 2 of 3 of Adelheid’s sons died very early in life: Friedrich b 1857 lasted 14 months, and Gerard b. 1862 lasted 2 months. Going back up the line to Queen Victoria’s maternal g-mom, Augusta of Reuss, mother to Marie Victoria (b. 1786), Augusta was also a carrier. Augusta married Franz Fredrick Anton and they had 10 kids: 5 boys and 5 girls. Of Augusta and Franz Fredrick Anton children: Sadly, 2 of the 5 boys died very early. (1st boy died 1782, 2 boy: Franz Maximilan (b. 1792). Of Augusta and Franz’s five girls, 3 appear to be carriers of hemophilia: 1. Sophie Fredericka (b. 1778) lost 1 son at 17 yrs, 2. Antonieta Ernestine (b. 1779) also 2 of 4 sons, one at 4 yrs and one at 14 yrs. The 3rd girl .Marie Victoria (b. 1786) - Queen Victoria of England’s mom. The other 2 daughters of Augusta: Juliane Henrietta (b. 1781) had 2 kids but unknown medical. The 5th daughter of Augusta , Marianne Charlotte (b. 1788) only lived to be 6 yrs old, unknown medical. Augusta’s mother was the Hemophilia Carrier. Her name was Karoline Ernestine von Erbach-Schoenberg (b 1727, d. 1796) Karoline is the maternal great-grandmom of Queen Victoria of England. Karoline Ernestine had 2 of 3 sons die from most likely from hemophilia : Henrich VLVI (b. 1755) only lived 2 yrs and another brother also named Henrich (Henrich LIII, b. 1765, died at 5 yrs old). Only one of Augusta & Henrietta’s brothers lived to be an adult: Heinrich LI. Karoline Ernestine had at least 1 other daughter who was a hemophilia carrier besides Augusta, that was Henriette b. 1767). Henrietta’s only child , Prince Friedrich died at 6 yrs old ) . Henrietta was the first wife of Prince Erich Carl (b. 1763) their only child a son would only live to. 6 yrs old, then she died and Prince Erich Carl married Marie Victoria (becoming her 1st husband and father to Carl & Anna Fedora, the 1/2 siblings of Queen Victoria). Point is there are many more cases going up thru Queen Victoria’s mother’s maternal line to show that other branches of hemophilia carriers.
