OT: What do your fingers say about you?

Interesting reference to finger lengths & success amongst men & women.

Odd thing is my ring fingers are longer than my index fingers & I can isolate my left finger so I have tremendous control which is supposed to be unusual for a women. I also had a Indian friend in college read my hands & she said I had very unusual hands where my middle finger was as long as my palm.

Interesting...

What do your fingers say???

The ratio between index and ring finger is believed to be linked to exposure to the male hormone testosterone in the womb. On average, men tend to have longer ring fingers and women longer index fingers. The higher the testosterone, the greater the length of the ring finger and the more "masculine" the resulting child – whether male or female. The longest ring finger is known as the "Casanova pattern".[1]
In a study of stock traders, Cambridge University researchers found that the most successful had a relatively long ring finger. According to these experts, the finger-length ratio was boosted by higher levels of testosterone in the womb during a crucial phase of gestation. Traders with long ring fingers made up to 11 times the earnings of their counterparts, the study found.[2]

ive always heard that left handed people were supposed to be twins,, and

if they were not .. then there was some foul play going on before birth.. 8)

left handed folks are dangerous!!

My twin sons are both right handed. In fact, there is no one even in my extended family that are left handed.

Oh..and my index fingers are longer than my ring fingers.
Not to sure about the studies and that it really means anything but adding my stats to the thread anyway. :lol: :wink: 8)

Oh yeah, forgot to mention...

Did u know that if your right handed your right boob is a "tiny" bit smaller then the left? Only because you use that arm more, it obvioulsy tones the muscle more on that side...including the boob!! Look for yourself! LOL **Goes for the left side as well for the smartass out there*! hehe :D :oops: :P

OK - guess I'm really messed up . . .

Ring fingers longer than index fingers - but I am neither bisexual or masculine and not particularly athletic. Assertive, yes.
Left handed - so I'm dangerous according to Larry
My right foot is slightly bigger than my left, my right leg is slightly shorter than my left, and I'm pretty sure my boobs are the same size.

I'll play. I'm gay. My ring finger and my index finger are almost the same length. So, not sure what that means, but thought it sounded like fun jumping in. lol
