New study from Korea says: 'finger length predicts penis length!'


Have you ever heard of this guy named 'Ron Jeremy' - who is also known for quite a few years as the 'most succesful' porn star of all times. Wikipedia says that his name is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for "Most Appearances in Adult Films", and... he is noted for his supersize penis, counting 9.75-inch [24.75 cm] (a 'self-report' according Wikipedia).
Now... let's take a look at his handprints (see below). You will probably notice that his ring fingers are of rather exceptional length: each ring finger is almost as long as the middle finger! And the photo indicates that his '2D:4D digit ratio' is close to 0.85, which is exceptionally small for a Caucasian male.


Because, on july 4 Korean researchers have reported that the finger length ratio indeed does correlate with penis size!
So... British psychologist John T. Manning, who is a.k.a. the 'finger professor'... was right again!
Because Manning wrote in his second book 'The Finger Book':
“... My guess is that they would have found the ring finger the strongest predictor, and that long ring fingers in relation to index fingers would be associated with longer penises."
(Manning also described that so far only a 2002 study from Greece had been available which had found a linke between the length of the index finger and the penile length: http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/442389)

Re: New study from Korea says: 'finger length predicts penis length!'

... Unfortunately, the scientific Korean report is not available online yet.
But for those who are interested in more handprints of 'adult stars', they can visit this other Walk of Fame in front of the Hustler's Hollywood store, see:
http://www.roadsideamerica.com/tip/176
(There must be many more 'adult handprints' available online)
Re: New study from Korea says: 'finger length predicts penis length!'
... Just found the Korean article:
http://www.nature.com/aja/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/aja201175a.html
The results are quite impressive:
- the study includes 144 men (all patients for urological surgery);
- various penis size measurements have been done (flaccid & stretched, but not errected);
- results for digit ratio and (stretched) penis length are significant at P < 0.01
NOTICE: A likewise correlation is seen for penile length and body height, but the best results were found for the '2D:4D digit ratio' (in the perspective of a stretched penile condition).

And as expected by prof. John T. Manning (described in his book the finger book, page 10)... the ring finger length correlates BETTER with penis length than the index finger!
I have presented quotes from his work in my blog post:
http://fingerlengthdigitratio.wordpress.com/2011/07/05/study-from-korea-points-out-penis-length-does-correlate-with-the-2d4d-finger-length-ratio/
Re: New study from Korea says: 'finger length predicts penis length!'

Hi Ron, be aware... a 'fair' comparison requires a correction for average body height - the table below presents the necessary details.

By the way, Jamaicans are known for having the lowest digit ratio in the world + they also have a high percentage of arches: about 10%... and the table below indeed confirms that they belong to populations where the highest phallus size is found (next to some other African countries).
Still searching for a country that is known for having a HIGH digit ratio + HIGH percentage of whorls.... would be interesting to see where such a country would show up in the penis-size rankings (likely a low rank).

The combination of digit ratio + fingerprints appear to correlate even more significantly with penis length!
NOTICE: However... interestingly, the 'weight' of race appears to be much, much ... larger than the 'weight' of digit ratio and fingerprints!

Re: New study from Korea says: 'finger length predicts penis length!'
hi Martijn;
Fantastic study...
however it is not the tool, but how you use it.....
I am wondering is there any study interesting to us men also...

Re: New study from Korea says: 'finger length predicts penis length!'
... For those who are interested to 'test' the Korean results, this is the 'golden' formula (which is e.g. mentioned in the ABSTRACT of the Korean publication):
Stretched penile length=−9.201×digit ratio + 20.577
PS. I have started working on my review of the Korean study, including a few impressions of some 'womanizers':

Hi and hmmm
Hello,
I'm new to the forum and think its wonderful, thanks to all for making it happen.
Keep in mind I am writing with my own biased impressions as a woman on this subject.
The question of ring finger size to penis size is intriguing and I'm a bit shy to write about it but penis size seems to play an important role in our American culture with plenty of undertones and blatant references to virility and sexual performance related to the size of penis. I looked (however briefly, and perhaps not understanding the details) at the World Penis Size Chart and had a couple of thoughts . . .
Out of 120 Countries reporting there are 45 Self Reported and 75 Measured. There are 44 that report 6" or larger. 16 of these are measured and the remaining 28 are self reported.
In my thinking the self reported sizes seem questionable because I have never known any man who feels the size of his penis is large enough. And so, I question the validity of the self reported figures and this brings into question the validity of the World Penis Size Chart. That's all! Patricia

Hello Patricia,
First of all, welcome at this forum!
Regarding your comment...

But still, in general the trends among the 'measured' reports are quite obvious:
- For Africans (e.g. Cote d'Ivore, Egypt, Gambia) + South- (e.g. Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Venezuela) & Middle Americans (e.g. Colombia, Costarica, Cuba, Elsavador, Guatemala, Haiti) the average penis length reports are above average: higher than 8.6% of body length.
- For Asians (e.g. Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Korea): average penis length reports are lower than 6.5% of body length.
- Caucasians (e.g. Germany, Ireland, Norway) are usually somewhere in between 6.5% and 8.6%..
(And Mediterians are often between the first group and the third group)

(There must be various biological mechanisms involved here which explains this rank, John Manning described some of these mechanism in his 2nd book 'The Finger Book')

Re: New study from Korea says: 'finger length predicts penis length!'
Pant, pant,
just got back from Maslin's nudist colony, 9C, and looking stupid and wearing sun-glasses!
Freezing cold here, but I can say there were plenty of men with long ring fingers who were well below average size- taking into account the conditions, but had short index fingers. So I am wondering if the combination of a long ring finger is over-ridden by a short index finger.
Those with both long ring fingers and index fingers seemed above average.
Go figure!
God protect me from any bloke with the size under discussion!
The intrepid Aussie palmist,
Now to explain the whole thing to my husband!

Penile Size Linked to Length of Fingers
Penile Size Linked to Length of Fingers.
Researchers Find Association Between Penile Length and Ratio of Length of Men's Fingers.
The ratio between the length of the index finger and the ring finger of men's hands is associated with penile length, a study shows.
Researchers found that men with a lower ratio, or a shorter length of the index finger compared to the ring finger, tended to have a longer penile length.
Experts say these results may offer researchers insights beyond the obvious cocktail conversation.
They say “The length of the index and ring fingers of the right hand were measured prior to surgery, and flaccid and stretched penile lengths were measured while the participant was under anesthesia. I don’t know whether a penile can be stretched under the influence of anesthesia.
I wonder the length of the Ring finger will predict about the penile length besides the “facial attractiveness” or "hotness," or “magnetic sweating”, risk takers, athletic qualities in a person in future!
