K, so two posts in one day is a bad way to be on hiatus. In my defense, my computer was off, and I was not even thinking about it, was being a good little girl and... watching t.v. But hubby turned on this show called MANswers on Spike channel. Maybe you've heard of it. Among other precious little tidbits of information, I learned that the horniest animal on the planet is the pygmy bonobo(sp?) chimpanzee who can do it 50 times in an hour, LOL, and restaurant heat lamps can cure hemorrhoids.



So, anyway, here's my predicament. Apparently the number one question men want answered is 'how can you tell if a hot chick might be packing downstairs?' Apparently, a lot of transsexuals only go halfway and don't go through with the genital reconstruction, which is why some guys end up rudely surprised. Apparently an Adam's apple can be shaved off and electrolysis is so effective at removing facial hair, that it can be nearly impossible to distinguish a female from a shemale without risking getting a hand slapped.

But THIS is what they said is the "fail-proof" test. Look at fingers. Apparently, in males, the ring finger (4th finger) is longer than the index finger (2nd finger). In females, the index finger is longer. Which is an awesome nifty trick, EXCEPT... my index finger is a lot shorter than my ring finger. It's not even close. I'm a guy. So, thinking I heard them wrong, I checked on hubby. His index finger is also shorter than his ring finger. We both did this ^.^ Then, I asked him how it felt to find out he's gay after all these years, since apparently, according to the fail-proof test, I'm A GUY! That surgery must've been expensive. No wonder I'm always broke.

So, I thought, of course, Spike Tv has just got it wrong. More research was required.

Okay, my idea of research is about ten minutes worth of Google-fu... but what I did find seems to support the theory that according to my fingers, I should be a guy. Not only that, but I should be more inclined toward numbers and math than towards language.

Now, I'm fine with being the exception to every rule. LOL, but I wonder if there are any more of me out there.

So, quick poll.

Scratch that, the poll isn't working...

Just wondering... do your finger ratios peg you as male or female? Do they say you're more likely to a mathematician or a writer? (I'm thinking it's my destiny to write an epic allegorical tale about the human journey in numeric code so that it can be beamed into space and deciphered by other civilizations after we're long gone... but then I've always had delusions of grandeur.)

And the big question is... who has the pictures of Jared and Jensen's hands so we can solve the question once and for all about who the girl in that relationship is would be... ya know... if there was a relationship... *shifty eyes*

Also, as I was posting this little trivia, the Spike channel had a poll... Who gets you mored "fired up"? Molly Sims or Danneel Harris? It was a tie. LOL.

Haha! We're a club! I can honestly say, math was never a problem for me, and at times, I even got a little excited over deciphering something that looked impossible at the outset, but I've never had a real passion for it. Plus, every standardized test I've ever taken has shown I'm clearly stronger in language.

My theory is that typing must change our finger proportions. I really wish I had some pictures of my hands from before I had a computer...

LOL math was never a problem until I hit Calculus... And then, I couldn't quite get how derivatives would apply to my life, and so I couldn't wrap my head around remember how to do the steps. Hahaa, which then lead to issues in Physics, but that's a whole other story...

Hmmm, that's an interesting theory about typing. I dunno though, if anything, the index finger has more to do for typing, so if you go by the "use" theory you posted above (which amused me heheh), the index should be longer for everyone... I am however convinced that the way I write has affected my right hand... So it's possible that typing would do it too.

Well, ya know, I was never required to take Calculus beyond Pre-Calculus, so I might very well have had the same problems with derivatives. Loved Physics, though, mostly the theory part and not the math part. Quantum physics for the win! Woohoo!

Yeah, and the index finger probably does more in typing, but I suspect most people, unless they play an instrument or type would not use their ring finger for much of anything, so maybe doing anything with the ring finger makes it lengthen out. I dunno. I think I overthink. But yeah, the use theory, I got a giggle out of that, too.
