Smirky and the new aggression theory (photo).

[deminks]

A new research study came out this week about men and physical aggression. Supposedly the smaller the index finger is compared to the ring finger, the more the man is prone to physical aggression. Now I think there is a lot more to the development of physical aggression than this, and so do the researchers, but their data did show this.

I decided to put it to a sort of test.



Yup, short index finger. Hmmmm.

1. Most men have longer ring fingers

while women have longer index fingers. Interesting what they said about aggression, though....wouldn't you say Shrub has at least a 5-6mm difference?

2. I could swear that I once heard the same physical feature connected

to testosterone levels. I'm almost positive- though I don't remember the source's name, let alone whether they were credible or not.

3. That nail on the pinky is also a little longer than the rest

10. I have heard it too - only it was applied to sexual activity in men &

women (which is linked to testosterone).

12. How About a Really Huge

Middle finger? What would that mean? :)

or monkeys, or chimps as we call them
