[ExI] finger length predicts SAT performance

[Anne Corwin]

Interesting.  I've got a longer ring finger as well (about 1/2 centimeter longer than my index finger).  And plenty of past accusations of being "male-brained" (though I certainly do not feel "manly" -- I don't actually feel "internally gendered" at all).
   
  With regard to natural selection, remember that some traits are capable of "piggybacking" with other traits -- that is, a long ring finger *in and of itself* might not have necessarily been the selected-for trait, but rather, something that came along with other selected-for traits.

  Okay, this is one of those wacky ones I just couldn't pass up! And
damn it, if it isn't on the money for me. I've always been accused of
having a male brain. Turns out I've got the finger length and SAT
scores to prove it!

Longer ring finger length = more testosterone?! What's a longer ring
finger have to do with male natural selection???
