Are you a fingerlet, /r9k/?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digit_ratio
>Digit ratio in men with Klinefelter's syndrome, who have reduced testosterone secretion throughout life compared to control males, are greater (i.e., more feminine) than in their fathers or control males.[25]
>Digit ratio in men correlates with genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene.[26] Men with genes that produce androgen receptors that are less sensitive to testosterone (because they have more CAG repeats) have greater, more feminine, digit ratios. There are reports of a failure to replicate this finding.[27] However, men carrying an androgen receptor with more CAG repeats compensate for the less sensitive receptor by secreting more testosterone,[28] probably as a result of reduced negative feedback on gonadotropins. Thus, it is not clear that 2D:4D would be expected to correlate with CAG repeats, even if it accurately reflects prenatal androgen.
>Trans women were found to have a higher digit ratio than cisgender males, but one that was comparable to cisgender women.[116]
>High digit ratio
>Lowered sperm counts[47]
>Increased risk of obesity and metabolic syndrome in males[49]
>Reduced birth size in males[51][52]
>Increased risk for depression in males[62]
>Increased rate of schizophrenia[63]
>Increased anxiety in males[67]
>Reduced performance in sports[69]
>Reduced financial trading ability[70]
>Personality traits correlated with digit ratio, higher being more feminized[83][84][85]
>Higher neuroticism in both sexes with higher right hand digit ratio.[88]
>Sexual preference for more masculine men among women[96] and gay men[109] with high digit ratio; a preference for a masculine facial type means a more "feminized" mindset.
The effects for having a low digit ratio are also really interesting but I can't include the whole table.
