You are beautiful, smart, self-confident and kind but still lonely, then rejoice, now you know that your perfect man could be spotted by the length of his fingers. At least Canadian researchers from McGill University say so.
Well, ladies, read and remember. According to new research, men whose index fingers are close to the length of their ring fingers were found to have more harmonious relationships with women.
The lower the ratio between second finger and ring finger, the more likely they are to have a happy relationship. A longer ring finger shows more exposure to testosterone in the womb.
The digit ratio, called 2D:4D, is the ratio of the lengths of different digits or fingers typically measured from the bottom crease where the finger joins the hand to the tip of the finger. It is thought to be closely linked to sex hormones.
The study ivolved 155 men and women aged 18 to 54. During the experiment they cross-referenced their questionnaire answers to the lengths of their fingers. Later this data was analyzed and the results published in the journal Personality and Individual Differences.
Some of the results:
When with women, men with smaller 2D:4D ratios were more likely to engage in behaviours such as listening attentively, smiling, compromising, expressing reassurance and complimenting the other person.
Men with smaller 2D:4D ratios also have more children.
Men with larger ratios were equally quarrelsome with men and women.
The differing 2D:4D ratios of women in the study showed no significant effect on their behaviour.
