Does anyone else have a single transverse palmar crease ?

Note: I am trying to say there is a link between Simian Lines and AS, this is just for fun.
Also called Simian Line or Simian Crease , it looks something like :



The reason why I ask is that I was reading on a hand analysis website for fun and then I read:
[quote] People with Simian Lines generally live their life differently than most other people who do not have Simian Lines. Not necessarily living better nor worse. Just living more intensely with an undercurrent of uneasiness./quote]


And I kept reading and they did a survey on their website for people with Simian Lines (not scientific at all) and also some of these people are probably a bit different than the norm for reading about hand analysis. Anyways here are some of the answers that I thought looked very different from what I would imagine the norm to be.

Anyways does anyone else have a simian line ? I have seen conflicting numbers like 6% , 1 in 30 and I have been told before that it is 1 in a million so ...
Oh and I have it in both my hands. I have never met anyone with even one hand like this but I don't usually look at people's palms.

I should add this:

No. I have the normal complement of lines.

This is interesting, though, because I was always under the impression that a simian line was a peculiar characteristic of people with Down syndrome. I've only just realized that developmentally normal people can also have them. I've never personally met anybody with one.

I appear to have normal palms.

my baby boy has a single line across just one hand... his daddy has one exactly the same too lol

I have a "fake simian crease". When my hands are relaxed people might think I have just one line straight across, but upon closer examination it's two normal lines connected in the middle by a short deep line. The connection line is as deep as my major lines, though.

My father has the lines and when my son was born I saw he had lines too. My father is very gifted mechanically and math wise. He is quiet but has this charisma that people gravitate to and has many friends. My son also has this too but has the interests of his father, Example: art, D&D and video games. My second oldest sister has the lines and is a biochemist. She also has some traits like my dad but has always been clumsy when walking.

I can make my thumb touch the forearm it is attached to

No, but i have clubbed thumbs. I've never seen another person in real life(including my family!) who have clubbed thumbs.

I have two lines, the bottom goes completely across, the top line curves up and doesn't go completely across. Now what is that suppose to mean? I really don't know a whole lot about hand analysis but this is fascinating.

I also have a Simian Crease but it's only on my left hand, the same side of my body on which my toes are more clearly webbed and I have an extra full rib. I've always wondered what that meant.

Most of what I've read has suggested developmental problems and mental slowness. I do not believe I have either as I am fully functional, physically capable and from all accounts I'm considered rather intelligent.

I do, however, have Aspergers (self-diagnosed) and that does seem to be a common trait among the more intelligent in my family.

Non-symptomatic possession of a Simian Crease is supposedly more common in Asians and Native Americans. I'm not sure I have either in my lineage as my family is purely Nordic in origin so I have no explanation or opinion on what it means.
