You got that wrong mate, Rh neg can infact receive from Rh neg.
Rh neg has got antibodies against Rh D. Since the erytrocytes of the donor hasnt got the rhesus D on its cells, there is no problem.
If the Rh negative gets blood from a Rh positive however, the antibodies react with the D antigen on the cells from the donor and a dangerous reaction occurs.
