Your Finger, It’s So Long

Next time you meet a guy before you even look at his face make him show you his hands. Carefully inspect them, inch by inch, caressing them as you go, and be sure to take note of how long his ring finger is. Do you like what you see? Maaaybe. According to science, men who have ring fingers longer than their index fingers are more attractive to women. Something about testosterone exposure in the womb.

It’s not just that they’re more attractive, there are other perks too: Mr. Ring Finger is likely to be richer, and an “extroverted go-getter with strong muscles,” and also he has “a greater likelihood of playing a musical instrument.” (If you’re into that kind of thing.) Just a few other really teensy things you should know about these guys: They’re more promiscuous and have a “higher chance of ending up in prison, being murdered or going mad.” But basically if you like the finger, put a ring on it.
