A long ring finger

Did you know….

That a long ring finger (in comparison to the index finger) has been linked in several research papers to higher levels of testosterone.  The long ring fingered person has been generally found to be good at sports, flirty, prone to take risks and have heightened spatial awareness.  They have a drive to show off and exhibit whatever skills or abilities they may have.

And it seems that women are subconsciously attracted to these testosterone fuelled risk takers.  In a scientific one-off experiment, a group of women were asked to take turns holding a group of men’s hands through a curtain and rate the men for all-round sexiness.  Out of the group of ten men, four had long ring fingers.  In three different experiments, the long ring fingered men came out tops each time. 

Having a long ring finger may offer initial greater success in attracting a mate but it’s no guide to relationships.  Also bare in mind that although the public self of this person may seem confident, privately they will feel inadequate.  This is because the index finger is short by comparison (the index finger represents how a person sees themselves). 

Interestingly, many professional entertainers, sports people and celebrities have long ring fingers.  Make sure you check this out when you see them next on the tele!
