The difference between the electro-magnetic flux you are exposed to between transformers and electric motors vs. an electric blanket is that the blanket is in very close contact with your body. How many motors or transformers to you sleep with? i.e. have VERY close to your body for many hours on end? Electromatic fields decrease INversely with the distance. That is, move the electrical object twice as far away and the field strength drops 4 X. Also, by design electric blankets are designed to cover your entire body (LARGE surface area in close contact). A hair dryer would not be as close, nor used as long, nor have anything appoaching the surface area of an electric blanket.
