Cheiromancy Scientifically Proven!

The ratio of one's fingers may indicate a predeliction for scientific research.
The survey compared the length of people's index (first) fingers with their ring (third) fingers. This comparison is thought to indicate prenatal sex hormone exposure, probably because some developmental genes control the formation of both the reproductive system and the digits.
Get down to your local palm reader now
In the general population, men have a “digit ratio” of 0.98 on average - the index finger being slightly shorter than the ring finger. Women have a digit ratio of 1.0 on average, meaning the two fingers are the same length.
I can just see you all studiously measuring your finger lengths .
Staff in the departments of chemistry, computer science, mathematics and physics all had average ratios of over 0.995 - close to the female average - despite 81% of those subjects being male.
You sure?

Aha but you're a rational girl.

Terri, wondering about all the atheist chicks measuring their fingers at work.
