    Your second part is the correct one, red green colour blindness is caused by a ressssive mutated x which means you need to inherit it from BOTH parents for it to effect a girl but only mum to effect a boy. Blue colourblindness on the other hand (which is much rarer) is not carried on the x and therefore I believe equally effects girls and boys

    That I understand; but I have a couple of friends in the severe category who can't see the new LED traffic lights till they are a car length away, unless of course it is yellow.
