A male who has an x-linked genetic disorder will #1 have the disorder (as opposed to just being a carrier) and #2 pass the gene on to ALL of his daughters (making them carriers) and none of his sons.

In theory that is true but I am discussing a disease that at the time those having the disease typicaly did not live long enough to pass the gene on.
