i found out that having abnormally long fingers and toes actually has a name! arachnodactyly. it means spider fingers lol. all my life i've hated my "man hands" and "man feet". my toes are like the length of most normal girl's fingersXD not really but they're freakishly long. i get really sad when i have i have to hold up my hands to other peoples to compare size just for fun. where most girls fingers end, there's a whole other joint on my finger! my palm size is the same as most girls, but my fingers are so long which causes my hands to look huge. i'm only 5'5 and a 100 lbs so my hands look really big on meT_T my hands are the same size as my dad'sT_T but my fingers are slender while his are thick like most men. my dad also has freakishly long toes, so unfortunately i inherited my toes from him instead of getting my mom's smaller size 7 feetT_T i'm a size 9 so that's not too big but i wish it could be smaller, at least an 8! they always have all the super cute shoes that are on sale in sizes 6-8 but hardly ever a 9T_T if my toes were normal length, i could be an 8. anyways the only reason i'm kinda glad to have my freakishly long fingers is because i can do all sorts of cool double jointed tricks with them! when i take a picture in the mirror with the camera visible, my thumb looks so weird because from the base of my wrist to the top of my thumb looks like a big zigzag from the way i hold my camera lol. i literally can't hold the camera stable if i try to make my thumb look regular while holding the camera lol. anyways any other girls have to deal with super long "man hands" or "man feet"?

I've got biggish hands, and I'm not worried about it. I love my hands. I also feel that I'm meant to be a man, anyways, so that's why it doesn't bother me.

I dont have that problem with my toes, but I do have very large hands. My hands are usually bigger then most men I meet, I hate it, but its good for the piano.

I'm not female, but I couldn't resist clicking into this thread for some reason. Personally, I do have fairly large hands and feet for someone my size. I was actually nick-named "ET" when I was small, due to my excessively long digits. As a teenager, my palms partially caught up with my fingers. Also, my toes are long - not freakishly so - but long enough that I have trouble finding boots that fit fit me right.

I have huge hands...well, really long fingers, bigger than all my brothers'! Luckily I used to play the piano so when anyone asks I say I play lol. Somebody asked if I used to be a man once, because of my hands. lol.

where most girls fingers end, there's a whole other joint on my finger!


My fingers are that size. However, I have large hands, so my fingers are in proportion to the rest of my hand.

My fingers are way too long. But they are really thin, so they aren't really 'intimidating'.
Mostly, my hands just look 'dainty'. I hate it!

I've been told I have long fingers, but I can't really go past a 10th on the piano...
