On my left hand, my ring finger is about a half inch longer than my index, but they're about equal on my right. I wonder if that has anything to do with me being left handed? |

DamnthatDavid | Index finger is your pointer finger. Not the middle finger. | ||

FS | isn't everyone's index finger longer than their ring finger? Unless you're a deformed, inbred flipper baby. | ||

What if my right hand has a ringer finger 1/4th of a inch longer then my index, but my left hand's ring and pointer are the same size? Would that make my right hand PURE MAN, and my left hand half man? Making my total being a quarter gay? And does this explain my preference for girls boarding on the tomboyish side of things? |

The origins of this gesture are highly speculative. It is identified as the digitus impudicus ("impudent finger") in Ancient Roman writings. It was defined there as a gesture intended to insult another. It has been noted that the gesture resembles an erect penis. Ancient Romans considered an image of an erect phallus as a talisman against evil spells. As a consequence, displaying this gesture to another may not have been a pseudo-sexual insult but rather an insulting statement along the lines of – "I'm going to protect myself against your witchcraft, before you even start." In Canada, showing the middle finger is called the Trudeau salute after Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau because of a famous photo of him giving the finger to some protesters. He was well known for telling people what he thought of them. A popular, but apocryphal, story derives it from the gestures of English archers at Agincourt. The myth claims that the French cut off fingers from archers, and that the 'finger' was a sign of defiance by those who retained their fingers. The same story also claims that 'fuck you' is a corruption of 'pluck yew' since bows were made of yew, or the phrase "I can still pluck you!". While it has been debunked many a time, this story still crops up. ![]() |

The post that Kelly made is BS. It would require super-human fingers to pull a Welsh longbow (draw weight ca. 120 lbs.), and besides that the middle finger was considered obscene for centuries prior. The Romans even called the middle finger "the vulgar finger", though the Latin term slips my mind. I've read a lot into the Battle of Agincourt, and I've never heard anything elsewhere about the fingers being cut off. Why not just kill the schmucks? Besides that, 15th Century Middle English would have them say "we cannen yew pluck", where "we can fuck you" would be "we cannen ye fyck". My Middle English spelling isn't so good, but it would be something like that. |

My ring finger is only about 1/8 of an inch longer than my index. I would've hoped that at 16 I would be able to pick up a small truck and swallow an egg whole. |

I've never posted it before. Were you anticipating repetition? :/ I just wanted to see how many "Really?"s that I'd get. |
