What is your blood type?

Indeed.
However, I am curious - exceedingly curious - as to why you wish to know this information, not least as you haven't volunteered your own blood type when starting this thread.
State it in your post, not simply in the poll, as this information is not visible until one votes.
In any case, exactly why do you wish to know this information?
To my mind, the only people who have the right to request such information are one's doctor, and other qualified medical staff, and, obviously, it is necessary if one is on deployment abroad for this information to be shared with the relevant authorities.
But, for an online information gathering exercise?

AB+. I’m a universal receiver, if needed, I can take anybody’s blood type (although only useful to other AB+). As opposed to O-, Who can donate to anybody (hence there is a much greater demand for).
Her maiden name is Wood.
Whoops, wrong security question.

You wouldn't happen to be nobility--a Count perhaps🤔--of Romanian decent, would you?🤭
Why do you want to know??? I mean, I can't really be helpful, because I don't even know my own blood type (honestly surprised I don't, but that's beside the point).
We've had threads like this in the past, and I fully believe in asking sensible questions because you're curious about something. Of course, that could be the case here, and I'm not denying that. Other times though, these types of threads end in disaster. Anyway, since I can't be helpful, I will proceed to simply observe.

For your own peace of mind, (not least, if you are ever in need of a blood transfusion, or other medical interventions), I recommend (strongly) that you take steps to find out what your blood group actually is.
For what it is worth, I didn't know my blood group until my first International Election Observation Mission in Bosnia over a quarter of a century ago, when, for the perfectly sensible reason that I would be working in what had been a war zone until a year or so earlier, a place that was heavily mined and quite dangerous, I was advised (very strongly) to take steps to ascertain my blood group in case circumstances decreed that I needed medical attention.

I found out my blood type after donating blood for the first time during my freshman year at college.
Burgundy...at best. But indeed it is a curious thread for a tech site, especially since such data is found in abundance with appropriately large (accurate) sample sizes. I think such a poll on MR will be in vain (just couldn't resist).

I have… normal blood, I guess. 57 years old, I’ve never needed to know the blood type. I have donated blood - presumably if I’d asked they’d have told me the type. But I didn’t.
Around here when you became a donor you are issued a donor card with your blood type and they report back to you about your blood tests. It's a small perk, free checkup.
Not all that strange, in the proper historical context. Examples:
Is it weird for guys to shave their armpits?? I guess europeans do...
Ok so my cousins from Spain are over for summer vacation. They are pretty much the same age as me (20ish) and I noticed after going to the beach yesterday that they all had shaved armpits. I asked them why the hell they would want to do that. I'm considering doing this myself now since they...

Same here - mine runs single cask bourbon or single malt scotch nothing under 12 years.
B+ if I recall right.
But I can suck any blood-type, not so picky 🧛♂️😋🩸

Maybe it's a pre-order thread...
Yah, I feel dizzy like I donated too many pints of blood when I paid Apple $3500 for the Apple Vision Pro a few days ago....
