With 54 participating in the survey, here are the results:
BOY: 46
GIRL: 22
GIRL: 22
So, is there a connection between gender and a peanut allergy? Read what one respondent said:
"My allergic one is also a boy (peanut & much more). My 2 girls have no allergies at all. I mentioned this to the allergist and he said something about that pesky x chromosome. I won't be at all surprised if they figure out one day allergic tendencies reside on the X so that's why more boys have them."
Anyone else find this fascinating?
