This is junk science at it's worst. Nearly ALL men have index fingers shorter than their ring fingers. Women are the opposite. But sexual preference has NOTHING to do with finger size. Whorls in one direction or another mean nothing. Just for the record, only my thumbs and left middle finger even HAVE whorls, the rest are arches.

I file this in the same category as online relationship tests, purity tests and marriage quizzes (a POX on whoever invented those)

It's the whorl in your hair, not fingerprints. Did you read the article? It's building a case in favor of nature vs nurture, with quantitative measurements.

Now I know I can just show people my fingers to prove it.

Aha, so that's why so many men show me their finger when I'm driving! And here was me thinking they were just telling me that my driving skills were #1 :p

The index/ring finger ratio difference is related to the amount of testosterone in the womb when the fetus was growing (women produce testosterone in small amounts, just like men produce estrogen - especially overweight men, because it's produced by fatty tissue in men).

Homosexuality is an inherited trait which has been seen in nearly all vertebrate species, not just humans. It's a fallacy to think that gays don't reproduce, most lesbians throughout time have been forced to marry in spite of their sexual orientation, and many homosexuals of both sexes have children. Some try to repress their feelings and act hetero until it becomes too much. Some do it all their lives.

Some just want to have children, and find a willing sperm donor or egg/womb donor.

which is why i stipulated 100% gay. not 100% OF gays. I've known gay people that have kids.

I think I may have misinterpreted this because of the way it is worded. It seemed, on the first pass, that you were saying that homosexuality influences genes. reading more carefully, you're saying that genetics influence homosexuality.

Homosexuality DOES influence jeans. Look inside any Abercrombie and Fitch catalogue.

I'm more concerned with toes, than fingers. You can tell if someone is a serial killer by their toes.

Killing cereal with their toes? Damn, I better hide the corn flakes.

The only thing better then the women's A&F jeans is getting to look at the posters for men's A&F jeans while you try them on.
