Dynamite News Men with long ring finger attract curvy women: Study
Men with long ring fingers are four times more likely to end up with a partner with a classically ideal hourglass figure.
New Delhi: Men, if you think that your personality or your infectious smile lands you with the woman of your dreams, then you might have to think again.
According to a recent research, Men with long ring fingers are four times more likely to end up with a partner with a classically ideal hourglass figure.
The extra millimeters on that digit are caused by a burst of male hormone testosterone whilst in the womb.
The study looked at the hands of 50 young men in long-term relationships then took the vital statistics of their partners. The researchers found that men with ring fingers longer than their index fingers and women with small waists would often gravitate towards each other.
Our results suggest men's pre-natal environment has an impact on the likelihood of being in a relationship with a more attractive and presumably more fertile woman. Men with [longer ring fingers] were four times more often partnered with women who had both relatively narrow waists and large breasts," explained the study.
Lead author, human behavior expert Berenika Kuna, added, "Eye-tracking studies have shown that, during evaluation of female body attractiveness, men focus mainly on the waist and breast areas, which deliver honest signals about a woman's reproductive status.
