"We&amp;amp;#8217;ve all heard what they say about men with big feet, right? Well, there&amp;amp;#8217;s a new story about penis size making the rounds that has science on its side. Throw your hands in the air and wave them like you...are advertising your penis size! Earlier this week, an enterprising group of scientists published a study about the relationship between finger length ratios and penis size. MSNBC reports that the researchers&amp;amp;#8217; work suggests that a &amp;amp;#8220;smaller ratio between the second and fourth fingers is linked to a longer stretched penis size.&amp;amp;#8221; So, if a dude&amp;amp;#8217;s ring finger and index finger are about the same length, there&amp;amp;#8217;s a good chance he&amp;amp;#8217;s &amp;amp;#8220;more likely than men with mismatched digits to have a long penis.&amp;amp;#8221; In this study, the average difference between a participant&amp;amp;#8217;s two fingers was .38 inches, &amp;amp;#8220;making the differences hard to make out with the unaided eye. But the lower the digit ratio, the study found, the longer the penis was likely to be.&amp;amp;#8221; Of course, this isn&amp;amp;#8217;t always the case. One of my guy friends said that while his ring finger is noticeably longer than his index, he figures his penis length is &amp;amp;#8220;above average.&amp;amp;#8221; I took his word on that one. MSNBC shared that studies about finger length and testosterone have existed for years&amp;amp;#8212;some scientists feel that there is a link between a man&amp;amp;#8217;s finger length and the amount of testosterone he was exposed to while in the womb. There have even been studies that suggest the index and ring finger length ratios relate to things like sperm count and facial masculinity. Generally, I&amp;amp;#8217;ve found that meeting a new penis always involves a bit of surprise. Though, a few of my gal pals swear that a man&amp;amp;#8217;s build usually indicates his size and shape downstairs. For instance, they claim that a tall, skinny dude will almost always have a long, skinny penis. What do you make of this recent study? Think you&amp;amp;#8217;ll be sneaking peeks at men&amp;amp;#8217;s hands all day? And do you agree with my friends that a man&amp;amp;#8217;s build can give you an idea about what&amp;amp;#8217;s going on in his boxer briefs? P.S.
