LADIES, are your left index and ring fingers the same length, or different lengths?
The answer may reveal something about your sexual preferences - scientists investigating 18 pairs of female identical twins, where one was straight and the other gay, made the comparison.
Women whose left index and ring fingers are different lengths, a typical male trait, have a stronger tendency to be lesbians, they said.
A related study with 14 pairs of male identical twins found no such association.
Does this sort of "research" plumb the depths of uselessness and potential harm or does it help our understanding of the human condition?

Boston University researchers are looking for couples who would like to try out a new condom - it's self-lubricating.
The new model has a special, durable coating that should last throughout intercourse, says the team, backed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
They hope it will make condoms more appealing to use and thereby prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unwanted pregnancies.
The special coating can "remain slippery and moist for over 1,000 thrusts," scientists say.
