          Now we know why MF was trying to shorten his finger. He wanted the health benfits but not the stigma.

              Simple common sense. The longer your index finger, the further you can shove it up your arse in order to spot the early stages of prostate cancer.

                    I thought it was something to do with the amount of testosterone you're given in the womb, so I think there is some science behind it. Not sure I agree with Paddy's summation though.
                    Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.
