Is Your 2nd Toe As Long Or Longer Than Your Big Toe?

Post Reply New Topic

In vast majority of the human population, the 2nd toe is shorter than the big toe. However, a few people have a 2nd toe as long as or longer than their big toe. Some say this is more common in aspies so I'm curious to see how aspies on this board will respond.

You didn't leave an option for NTs with longer 2nd toes.

My 2nd toe is longer than my big toe. I also have a very wide gap between my big toe and my 2nd toe.

My second toe is longer than my big toe on my right foot, but not my left.

my second toe is longer than my big toe, also on my left foot my third toe is also longer while on my right foot it is about the same length as big toe. its called morton's toe also called greek feet, on wikipedia it states that the French call it pied grec(greek foot), but also pied ancestral and pied neanderthal, very interesting.

You should have separated the poll further into self-diagnosed aspie and clinically diagnosed aspie as one is a better metric than the other.

My second toe is longer. I'd be interested in hearing where the OP heard that this was common among Aspies, though. In doing my own research, I found that someone with a longer second toe is said to have "Morton's toe", also known as "Celtic toe" because supposedly it is a common trait of people with Celtic roots. I'm not 100% sure since I was adopted, but I have heard I might have some Irish background in my biological family. This would seem to indicate there's something to that.

My second toe is as long as my big toe. I heard it was a Celtic trait.

Another important thing. My pinky is very tiny. Hands say a lot of things.

My second toe is longer than my big toe, and one of my second toes is longer than the other which is a bit weird.

My second toe is as long as the big toe.

The 4th option needs to be fixed: I am NT (as far as I know) and my 2nd toe is longer than my big toe. My daughter is Aspie and her 2nd toe is also longer than her big toe. Genetics?

I voted "I'm an aspie and my 2nd toe is shorter than my big toe", but I'm diagnosed with PDD-NOS. My ex gf had extremely short big toe.

This reminds me of the whole digit ratio thing. I doubt it works on toes though since the vast majority of us seem to have 2nd toes that are shorter than our big toes. Or could that mean that aspies have, in general, lower digit ratios on the feet if you were to assume the 2nd toe mirrors the 4th digit on the hand and the big toe mirrors the index finger or vice versa? Wild speculation but...
Im sure the only thing the length of our toes tells us is how much we resemble Sideshow Bob!

Anyone else notice that "I'm an aspie and my 2nd toe is as long or longer than my big toe" was listed twice.

Mine is significantly longer than my large toe, much like a frog's foot, but I doubt very much it'd be useful for mating.
