Wondering if your partner will cheat on you? Well, it has now been discovered that the best way to tell if your partner is going to cheat on you – check the length of their fingers.
Experts at Oxford University have discovered that people whose ring finger is longer than their index finger are much more likely to cheat.
Those whose index and ring fingers are the same length are more likely to be loyal to their partners.
Apparently it is all linked to the level of testosterone in a person’s body and those who have higher levels have a greater desire to procreate.
According to the report, the length of a person’s index finger is set before birth.
Experts say it is influenced by the level of sex hormones babies are exposed to while in the womb.
Rafael Wlodarski, a researcher in the university’s department of experimental psychology, said: “There seems to be two types of males and two types of females.
“We observed what appears to be a cluster of males and a cluster of females who are more inclined to ‘stay,’ with a separate cluster of males and females being more inclined to ‘stray,’ when it comes to sexual relationships.”
The researchers added that while hormone exposure was not set in every human being, the link between finger length and testosterone levels, could help identify people more likely to cheat.
The research used finger measurements from more than 1,300 people, and surveys of almost 600 volunteers in the UK and US.
The survey quizzed people about their sexual habits and the findings backed up the theory with 57 per cent of men admitting there were more inclined to cheat.
