Finger Length Ratio

While I sit and finish off my fourth "regular" Pizza for the day I notice that there are many people around the world who have wasted more man-hours doing stuff they consider far more useful than sitting at home and eating Pizza.. Hmph!

I strongly advice you to rubbish the following conclusions and keep in mind that half of these researchers have been widely discredited and their views dismissed (or maybe not)

So before you go reading further, I suggest you compare the length of your Index finger and the Ring finger and then read on-:

  • It has been found that people with longer Ring fingers than Index fingers tend to be good in Math as they possess superior numerical ability. On the other hand, people with a longer Index finger than the ring finger tend to be good in Verbal Ability.

  • Researchers over the years have agreed over the fact that men with much longer Ring fingers than Index fingers tend to be far more physically aggressive.

  • A critical observation in this field has been that boys with shorter ring fingers than index fingers have an increased chance of acquiring a heart disease and steps must be taken to ward off that threat.

  • It is believed that Women who drive their car on the other side of the road ( no, i am not talking about British women) tend to have shorter Index fingers as compared to their ring fingers. The usual feminine pattern suggests that the two fingers are usually equal in length or the Index finger is slightly longer.

  • Professor John Manning claims that he can predict the winner in a race based on the relative finger lengths of the runners. John Manning is in fact working with a Sports Academy in Qatar to help them identify future athletes based on his research.


I would love to hear from you and see if there is any truth to the conclusions that have been made by many scientists around the world.

For those of you who think that all of the above is a good amount of hogwash, well, you can always finger the research !
