That makes me think…. 
If the fertility rate of men with PsA is low, imagine 1.3, than this number of him and his partner is below the reproduction rate that is necessary to keep the family alive in the future. As two people reproduce in 1.3 people, and on and on and on, the family reproduction will come to a halt and the family will cease to exist.
IF genetic transfer of PsA would be the only way that it passes on to the future, then historically seen PsA would have disappeared as all families with this genetic problem will finally cease to exist.
That certainly is not the case… so simply speaking, I don’t know what other factors are involved, genetics is not the only cause of PsA, so this implicitly means that anyone can get it. A statement that Fred regularly states.
Derms often have the idea that a disease as Psoriasis, and therefore also PsA, is a specifically genetic problem.
