Now, it’s important to note: the actual lengths of Trump’s index and ring fingers are not published anywhere that I can find, so his actual digit ratio is unknown to the general public, and these studies can only identify associations and suggest traits, not provide definitive information or show causation. And a lower digit ratio has been linked to being perceived as more masculine and more dominant, but not more attractive. Factor I psychopathy has also been associated with narcissistic personality disorder as well as high achievement and social power.Ī lower digit ratio is also linked to greater aggression in sports-soccer players with lower ratios get more red cards-as well as in men generally speaking, likely due to… higher testosterone levels. In fact, they scored similarly to men with high Factor I psychopathy traits, which include low empathy levels, shallowness, superficial charm, selfishness, lack of remorse and manipulativeness. For example, a study last December found that increased testosterone levels in men with a smaller digit ratio led those men to score poorly on an empathy test. But this isn’t Bill Clinton we’re talking about, so presumably Trump’s penis length is unlikely to play a significant role in his job performance as Commander in Chief.īut that digit ratio can suggest some other things about a man. ![]() That study found that a lower digit ratio was associated with a longer penis. And so, it’s indeed quite possible that Trump’s lower member is longer than average, based on the findings of a 2011 study of Korean men published in the Asian Journal of Andrology. It’s a bit easier to see when he’s pledging allegiance, or you can zoom into this much larger photo to get a close-up.Ī longer ring finger makes for a lower ratio. Determining the answer to that question required me to look at far more images of Trump than I would have cared to, but it appears, based on this, this and this photo, that his ring finger just barely edges out his index finger. So the first thing to determine is which of these digits is longer on Trump. If his index finger is longer, the ratio is higher. If a man’s ring finger is longer than his index finger, that’s a low digit ratio. And yes, it may be related to penis size as well. Scientists have learned over the years that the ratio of the length of the second (index) finger to the fourth (ring) finger, called the 2D:4D digit ratio, is correlated with a wide range of health risks and personality factors. It’s the ratio of Trump’s finger lengths that can actually suggest possible insights into the frontrunner vying for the Republican nomination. But it’s not Trump’s finger length we should be paying attention to (if we absolutely must pay attention to him at all). ![]()
