What's your finger index ratio?

[Jen72]

I tried this and came out as ring finger longer and a 98 variance and here is the but part.  I do have short fingers so that is one factor not accounted for just measuring fingers.  Dmab but gender confused call it that atm:) but I do have big paws and short fingers which changes the ratio a bit. By my guess I would be more on the female side or really maybe since short fingers a balance of both")  Hehe another thought to think on is are we ftm and mtf more balanced then your average cis??  And in no way to I slight someone who is transitioning for they maybe be as mtf more female then male and have every right to transition:)

I'm an FTM and ratio is lower, my ring finger is longer than my index finger.
The difference in percentage between the two options for FTMs shows a significant difference.

[Blondie14]

My hand looks like the first one my index is pretty long and my ring finger is smaller.

I'm kind of questioning I was born male so yeah...

[Jill F]

Right now my 2d:3d:4d ratio is approx. 1:3:1.

[Lady_Oracle]

My index finger is longer than my ring finger

[JustASeq]

My ring is slightly longer than my index. According to the image you included, that means I am probably good at sports. Truth in my case

[PucksWaywardSon]

ftm and both ring fingers are noticably longer than index fingers - I'm right handed, on my right hand it's just a little bit longer... on my left hand, my ring finger is almost as long as my middle finger.

I got this so wrong in another topic, but basically it's best to measure your fingers like so because sometimes by putting your fingers together n judging visually can give false data, anyone can put their fingers together n make one finger bigger then the other.

It's best to do it like this.



Mine are even.

[Peebles]

my index finger is longer than my ring finger on my right hand

I'm always surprised by this, I match more of the low digit ratio stuff, like math, terrible handwriting, and liking women

weird

My ring fingers are just barely longer than my index fingers. Mostly equal.

[Kylo]

The "typically male" pattern on both hands.

[MeTony]

My ring finger is obviously longer on my left hand and slightly longer on my right. Hard to see with the cast on my right hand.

I find all the evidence supporting transexualism as an intersex condition compelling, and it fits in my case as I have very low testosterone,  female carrying angle and finger ratios, sparce facial and body hair, gender dysphoria and varicocele.

My mother had a long string of miscarriages prior to me, and this strongly suggests I am a DES baby as it was the practice in that era.

Symptoms of GD occured very young, during which time my family life was stable and secure- good role models on both sides.  No siblings to muddy the waters...  I still tried to cut off parts with scissors... which suggests it is not a psychological disorder in my case that triggered such drastic behavior.   I would have to conclude it is physical.

This is really good.   My index finger is shorter than my ring finger....hmmm.

I too had gender identity issues as a child, and playing with dolls, wearing moms and sisters clothes, trying to use "personal feminine products", etc..   Have always felt very different and unique.

It took 10 years of trying to have children, with low testosterone as part of it.  I have / had limited body hair.  And, to your DES child...I had never heard of it.    My mother in 1963 misscarried / baby died within days of birth.   I was born 3 years later.   My mother and father were both raised with a lot of trauma, during the Second World War.   I have always wondered if this misscarage and my mother's health

I am MTF and I am left handed, and my ring finger is longer then my index finger. This is all quite nonsense though, but fun none the less.

Not necessarily nonsense, actually. I've read that it's directly proportional to the amount of estrogen you're exposed to in the womb. You (and I) received a lot more than most cis men and even some cis women.

I don't know if there's any correlation between fetal hormones and gender identity, but it's an interesting thing to think about.

[Devlyn]

I vote for nonsense, too.

[KathyLauren]

Maybe it's nonsense, maybe it isn't.  But either way, you need to measure the fingers correctly.  You can't tell from a photograph, especially on the back side of the hand.

The measurement is made on the palm side of the hand.  Measure the fingers from the crease at the base of the finger to the tip.  My index finger looks like it is nearly a centimetre longer than my ring finger.  But in face, measured correctly, they are exactly the same length.  (Which, for reference is just barely within the female range.)

The 2D:4D finger length ratio is a known sexually dimorphic property.  There is substantial overlap between the male and female ranges, however.  The ratio reflects in-utero hormone exposure levels among many other influences.



I was exposed to very high levels of a synthetic estrogen, DES, at around 50,000 times the serum level of a modern birth control pill, starting around 10 weeks into fetal development.   This had an impact on tissues that started growth past this point, including the extremities and much of the brain.  (I wear a women's medium glove and size 9 - 9 1/2 women's shoes for what that's worth.)

My 2D:4D ratio is 1.01.

Something about my camera I think is making my hands appear slightly fatter than they really are.

Here's my hand FRONT (not back). Flip my hands around to the backside and my index is shorter than my ring but this way, they both appear about equal.  Go figure. 



My finger to digit ratio.  What's that make me? I'm guessing lesbian
My in utero exposure to hormones is anyone's guess.  My overall biology closely behind that guess.

The amount of angst and fighting that the digit ratio causes is a known property too. 

Finger length no more determines one's gender than one's genitals do.

Too many people get stuck on one body part or aspect of transitioning and forget to live life as who they are.

That's why we have this topic.
