What has length of a particular finger got to do with male libido?

The length of a man's ring finger, which is the fourth finger on his hand, is connected to his libido. The length of the finger may have a bearing on sports performance, nature of the person and sperm count.


The size of the fourth finger, according to researchers, depends on the level of male and female sex hormones in the fetus. If the fetus is exposed to increased levels of testosterone, the ring finger will be longer. Increased levels of testosterone is related to a higher sex drive and aggression.

"Sex hormones affect finger length, and the ratio is fixed before the bone has even developed", researchers said.
