Judging penis size by comparing index & ring fingers:Â
If your friends have ever questioned the value of your studying the esoteric arts, your moment of validation has arrived. Korean researchers have determined that, compared to the index finger, the longer the ring finger, the longer the penis.
Several other scientific studies had previously already discovered a correlation between finger lengths and prenatal exposure to sex hormones. Itâs this simple: the greater prenatal exposure to estrogen, the longer the index finger; the greater exposure to testosterone, the longer the ring finger.
In palmistry, the index finger is associated with Jupiter, and correlates with good judgment, ethics, literacy and teaching, to name but a few attributes.
On the other hand (palmistry pun intended), the ring finger is associated with the Sun, and correlates with demonstration of prowess (eg, athleticism and sexual vigor), numeracy and risk-taking.
In the average womanâs hand, index and ring fingers are equal in length. In the average manâs hand, the ring finger is marginally longer, reflecting the greater presence of testosterone. The greater the ratio between ring finger and index finger length, the greater the manhood.
Researchers from UC Berkeley created a stir in 2000 when they reported that lesbians tended to have a ring/index ratio more typical of men. Unfortunately, no such bias exists to differentiate straight/gay men. For help with that, ignore the fingers and check out the nails. And the shoes.
As in all matters related to astrology and palmistry, single indicators of a condition suggest only a bias. Additional evidence is sometimes required to, um, fully flesh out the thesis.
Carpe penem.

very nice study makes sense
There is contradiction between the text and picture – text says “longer”, but picture shows higher. Length wise on the right pic ring finger is hardly shorter, rather same or longer.
Alexandr –
Let’s not get into semantics. In the left-hand picture, the longer ring finger naturally stands higher than the index finger, so where’s the contradiction? And in the right-hand picture, the ring finger is distinctly shorter than the index finger. What’s the problem?

Dear Astrologer,
I was wondering if anyone ever asked you to do a reading and pay you only after your predictions proved to be correct. After all, people go to see an astrologer for predictions, that is, what is going to happen to me in the near or far future. Let me know what you think . another burning question, why Robert Svoboda is not offering astrological consultations or practicing jyotish?
dear Leo –
I wonder if anyone ever says to the lawyer, “I’ll pay your legal fees after I win my case,” or says to the in-laws, “I’ll pay a dowry after I’ve been happily married 12 years.”
Seriously, all astrologers put their reputation on the line every time they try to predict for a client. They’re doing their best, so why shouldn’t they be paid?
As for Robert Svoboda, he is more an ayurvedin than a jyotishi, so maybe that’s your answer. Or you can contact him via the coordinates he gives on his website http://www.drsvoboda.com/contact.htm
