POLL: Relative finger length determines sexual orientation?

Mearlchan - I agree. This is just meant to be amusing, not scientific. I think of it like the Chinese Birth Chart, which is supposed to predict the gender of your child based on mother’s age and month of conception.

The latest totals:
75% of straight men fit the theory, 12 checked in
75% of straight women fit the theory, 16 checked in
75% of gay men fit the theory, 4 checked in
100% of gay women fit the theory, 4 checked in

I find it interesting that straight women felt most compelled to participate. I wonder why that is? Being one myself, I can’t really say why, either.

Doctor Goo Fee - the old wive’s tale about those long toes is that you have royal blood. : )

Well crap, I’m male and heterosexual.

Hey pokey, how you doin’? What do you say let’s get together and put Mendel’s heredity theories to the test?

Goes without saying, I’m only trying to push up my post count, and I’m totally kidding. <my wife made me type this last part, but it’s true>

Same here. How lazy does it make you if you’d rather quote instead of typing things out?

Well, I can skew the results for you:

Lesbian. Right-handed (if it matters). Index finger just slightly longer than the middle finger (both hands) and both are app. 2 cm. longer than the ring finger.

Don’t even ask about my thumbs…

Straight, right-handed male. Both of my ring fingers are longer than my index fingers by about 1 cm.

Straight Female…Right handed

No ruler, but ring finger is longer than index finger on both hands…

SO: Index finger and ring fingers almost the same length, he’s also right handed.

On my right hand, my index is about equal to my ring.

On my left hand, my ring is noticeably larger than my index.

Apparently my hands are bisexual.
