That doesn't even make sense in context. This is so funny right now.

You are now back tracking without admitting you are wrong.
- KesselRules

What is funny is that you don't seem to understand what x-linked trait means.

It DOESN'T mean that something about the x-chromosome can't influence a trait.

it DOES mean the trait is carried on the X-chromosome.

Baldnes is NOT an x-linked trait.

How many times are you going to keep arguing without even having the most fundamental understanding of what you are saying.

READ THE ABOVE UNTIL YOU GET IT.

I just don't know you guys are getting so worked up over baldness. Chalk it up to poop happens lol
- Bigzby

I will say this:

I definitely got it from my mom's side of the family.

Ahhhh now we are putting words in my mouth.

I never said that, in fact, I said it DID have an influence and I even explained why.

What I said was that baldness was not an x-linked trait.

the x-chromosome can influence it (I already stated, twice).

Seriously, until you understand the term "x-linked trait" don't bother arguing.

YOU started this with an incorrect statement and now you are dancing all over the place with what you did or didn't and putting words in my mouth that I did not say.

You didn't say the X gene increased susceptibility... ROFL! Go find your own quote.

Let's replace your statement with your corrected one.

First of all, 2005.

Second, read deeper.

It is not and X-linked trait.
It is an autosomal Sex-influenced trait.

Continue research until you understand the difference.

You're corrected one makes no sense.

It's funny that you are accusing me of putting words in my mouth. When you ignore probably as sure thing and then assume by me talking about the X I mean it's the only cause.

"No interaction was detected with the X-chromosomal androgen receptor locus, suggesting that the 20p11 locus has a role in a yet-to-be-identified androgen-independent pathway."

Let me explain it to you for your small brain. The gene on 20 has no role with the gene on 23. If you have the gene on 23 you will be Susceptible to be bald. If you have it on 20 you will be Susceptible to be bald.

They have NO link except for causing the same thing.

I don't think you know what x linked means.

need a run here jays
lets fuking go

Yeah, you got me on a typo "an" vs. "and" which, in no way supports your arguement, congrats.

Your original quote:

He probably won't. Baldness is on the X chromosome and he can only get it from his mother as his dad gave him the Y.
- KesselRules

You said that.

It is wrong.

I have yet to say something incorrect (edit: during this discussion).

You managed to prove your quote above wrong, with your own research and you are still arguing.

Things that are carried solely on the X-chromosone are x-linked traits Baldness is NOT an x-linked trait, and therefore the idea that you can *only* get it from your mom is flat out wrong.

... keep digging. You would have been better off just admitting you were wrong or at least understanding your own research about chromosomes 7 an 20.

Once again you are ignoring this. This is getting sad. At least have some intelligent honesty.

Note:I never said you only get it from your mom. I SAID PROBABLY. WHAT PART OF PROBABLY DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND.

(frank) yes.

Hopefully we do have that again. If Nylander has half Mats career and looks like robocop like Sundin when he retires did I'll be touching myself the entire time.
- Zezel

Well he has double the hair and he'd right-handed .....that's a start I guess.

It is pretty funny that an argument about the genetics of balding is ongoing, this is pretty heavy poop.

I wish he could be a 6'5 super skilled cyborg beast like Sundin, but I'll settle for really good NHL player first.

Likely...maybe Crosby will be able to grow a beard by the time his finishes. Not that the Pens will ever get that far in the playoffs again anyway ooohhhhhhhh

Your original quote... you can ONLY get it from your mom.
Quote above... mentions gene 20 an 23.

If it was ONLY from your mom, it would be X-linked.

X-linked
(ěks'lĭngkt')
Relating to an inherited trait controlled by a gene on an X-chromosome.

Baldness is NOT an x-linked trait. Mutli genes are involved, not all of which (as you have already admitted, twice) are on the X-chrosome.

Oh, and try to argue without name calling... at least until you understand what you are talking about.

Find ONE incorrect statement I have made in any post on this subject.

Likely...maybe Crosby will be able to grow a beard by the time his finishes. Not that the Pens will ever get that far in the playoffs again anyway ooohhhhhhhh

I've got 4 weeks growth on my face right now... I think crosby could go for a year and not match it.

One step at a time for the cute little Swedish meatball.

I'm surprised Burn isn't involved.
- sloppyseconds2

Cause he's bald, or argumentative?

Both traits are partially genetic. But I think argumentativeness is much more influenced by environment than baldness, and if you disagree you're just ignoring reality.

I'm surprised Burn isn't involved.
- sloppyseconds2

I am surprised that someone can argue something without a functional understanding of what the term x-linked autosomal, or sex-influenced means.

... and then he disproves his own original statement, and then laughs at me.

I'll stop short of name calling, but dude really needs to take a step back and just try to understand his own posts.
