A Man’s Finger Length Reveals Personality As A Lover

Next time, you'll go out with a guy, try to look at the length of his fingers. Yes, that's right. A recent study published in the journal "Personality and Individual Differences" said that men's pointer and ring fingers tell how he treats women.

According to Cosmopolitan, if the ring and pointer fingers are relatively of the same lengths, then you are in good hands as it tells that man is extra gentle to his woman.

Further, Science World Report said that men with a shorter index compared to their ring fingers are generally gentler and more favorable.

Scientists in the study explained that the level of testosterone exposure when one is still developing as a fetus dictates behavior and personality. A small-ratio between the index and ring fingers mean a higher exposure to testosterone.

"It is fascinating to see that moderate variations of hormones before birth can actually influence adult behavior in a selective way," Simon Young, a part of the research team said.

The research highlights how men's interactions differ between other men and women groups.

"When with women, men with smaller ratios were more likely to listen attentively, smile and laugh, compromise or compliment the other person," said Debbie Moskowitz, a member of the research team.

This observation is based from a study conducted by researchers from McGill University who examined the hands of 78 adult men and 77 adult women and the length of their pointer and ring fingers and correlate it to their fingers' length.

The participants are said to have underwent a 20-day observation as they mix with other subjects in the experiment. Their behavior is recorded and classified as agreeable, quarrelsome, dominant, or submissive.

Meanwhile, International Business Times said that the same study conducted by Moskowitz and other scientists said that men with a small ratio difference in their index and ring fingers tend to have more kids.

"Our research suggests they have more harmonious relationships with women; these behaviors support the formation and maintenance of relationships with women," the scientists said.
