I was reading a medical journal the other day that said Most Homosexuals have longer ring fingers. Just wondering if it was true or not.

I guess I didn't clarify myself well enough. Females generally have shorter ring fingers than index fingers. Most all lesbians have longer ring fingers. (acording to the study) In men...MOST men have equal or slightly longer ring fingers than index fingers,( longer than the index finger, but shorter than the middle finger) but gay men have substancially longer ring fingers...equal to or longer than the middle finger.

Let me start off by saying I am a lesbian. My ring finger is longer than my index finger, as is stereotypical. However, this phenomenon is mostly only true for gay women. Men usually automatically have longer ring fingers than index fingers. Straight women's index and ring fingers are generally the same length. From what I have heard, a certain hormone in gay women is what causes the ring finger to be longer. Perhaps it comes from the idea that gay women have more testosterone in their systems, like men, than straight women do.

I stay in Massachusetts. My ring and index hands are about an identical length, even if it kinda feels like my index finger is somewhat longer. What does that recommend? And what if I flow to a diverse state? And, maximum seriously, what form of scientists are dropping their time with this crap?

my ring finger is longer. in cosmo i read that a longer ring finger means that a man has a higher amount of testosterone which they said meant really good sex.

my ring finger is longer, but i'm straight. i don't see how the length of certain fingers can be an indication of sexual preference...
