Sooooo, Japan has 105, Taiwan has 107....
That is one of the most useless pieces of wiki factoid I've ever seen. |
It's not a wiki factoid. It's a book report. |

So? The Rok has apx 50million and the USA 300 million. What's your point? |
well i guess singapore and korea do trade off #1 in math or science tests worldwide.
okay fine, singapore sperm and korean sperm can both satisfy woman's desire to give her children a better future.
btw, i think genetics studies are pretty retarded in general. |

Please show me a site demonstrating that there is a demand for Korean sperm from non-Koreans. |

i have two korean friends who donate sperm, and they both said that they get very good money from western sperm banks for their sperm. more than the average. There is a very high demand for Asian sperm in western sperm banks. Word is spreading, and supply is increasing in accordance to the demand.

Long Second Toes Indicators Of Criminals, Study Finds.
"Stay away from them" � Anthropologist
Alarming study gives support to movement advocating euthanizing
babies born with physical and mental abnormalities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By Crusty Blanche-Froid
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Autopsy shot of serial killer Ag�ar Btsvestic's right foot. Second toe was 76 mm. longer than big toe. Illinois State Prison photo.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DES MOINES, Iowa. A new study by the Forensic Infant Studies Laboratory at Des Moines University has conducted a far-ranging anthropological study involving thousands of humans of both genders and found a disturbing correlation between the length of a person's second toes and serial killing.
Dr. Lizbeth Maybe, director of the study said that a toe length analysis of 14, 826 infants born in both the United Kingdom and the USA since 1960, shows that those who were born with long second toes often scored high marks in school and did well in aptitude tests. Unfortunately, as adults they also tended to be far more represented in death rows and in psychiatric facilities for the criminally insane than babies born with normal toe architecture. Asked what 'normal' meant in these circumstances she said it meant those born with second toes shorter than their big toes. Such people, "represent more than ninety percent of the adult population."
The study published today in The Journal of the American Medical Society, showed that LST babies, who represent about 0.5 percent of all births, had second toes an average of 76 mm. longer than their big toes. "At 5, 10, and twenty years of age, those with LST demonstrated significant deficit in behavioural characteristics such as bed-wetting, holding their breath to get their way, and bringing hand guns to school," said Dr. Maybe, the author of the JAMA report. She noted that Clifford Olsen and Ted Bundy, both infamous serial killers, had this abnormality. As a further example, she referred to the recent execution of Ag�ar Btsvestic in Illinois, a serial killer with typical abnormal toe architecture (photo). "I would like to examine the toe architecture of some famous people, especially certain politicians that demonstrate behaviour typical of LST people in our studies. Unfortunately, I have received no co-operation from neither the White House nor the offices of the Prime Ministers of the UK and Canada."
Dr. Maybe said that more studies of human physiognomy are needed, including cranium bumps and crevasses and other physical characteristics such as distance between the eyes and ear and nose shapes. She feels that the results so far reinforce the view that babies born with physical and mental abnormalities should be 'nullified' at birth using humane and widely accepted practices of the medical profession. "Think how much crime could be avoided and how everyone's tax bill could be reduced," she said. "Dr. Kervorkian received a lot of bad publicity because of his well intentioned program to remove those at the end of the age scale who want out and, anyway, have ceased to be productive. I want to do the same at the start of the life cycle before those who would certainly be misfits can even begin to be a burden on society."
Ms. Maybe says that she doubts her findings will cause an epidemic of 'toe spotting', at which people have their footwear ripped off and their bare feet brutally inspected by self-appointed 'toe inspectors'. She discounts tales of vigilante groups � toe troopers � a few of which are said to roam downtown Des Moines after dark and accost anyone who is shod in footwear that conceals toe length. "If you're normal. just wear sandals without socks," she advises. Dr. Maybe does not approve of a plan spearheaded by Ohio State Senator Orville Wright who wants to force the tattooing � in a "conspicuous place" � of people possessing abnormal toe lengths. The difficulty, she says is that people with toe lengths in the normal range can appear to be abnormal if the second toe is flattened out and the big toe is pulled back. "There is a grey area in toe length and we have to be careful not to sweep up too many innocent people in my crusade to rid the world of the pedally imperfect," she said.

| mrsquirrel, I never said that 100% had a longer second toe because I was with 6 girls who had it. I merely suggested that this probably meant that more than the usual 10% of people have it in Korea. |

God, all you pedantic nerds are missing the most important point namely pictures of hot Korean women�s feet.
Without further ado I present the one and only Feetman Seoul:

Not too many examples of Morton's toe on show to be honest (Thank God, though I have heard it said that girls with a long 2nd toe have a much higher sex drive) |

Which as many have pointed out is an observation that you are unwilling to back up with any other proof.
So on your train with your 100 or 150 passengers your 6 girls means that there are more than 10%
How?
Any luck with the photos or are you still puzzy footing about and not got them yet? |

If you want to get down to genetics, I think ear wax is a good basis. The dry type ear wax is genetically recessive and is common in Korea.
As you expand from Korea the dry ear wax becomes moist, being predominantly wet through Europe and Africa.
The dry ear wax is also common amongst native (North and South) Americans and Eskimos.
It is not detrermined if Morton's toe is a recessive trait. |

Okay what about the greenish blackish discoloration around the lower back and buttocks of Korean babies.
I never noticed this amongst other babies? |

These sites do not show that non-Koreans are using Korean sperm. You missed again. |

Does for me mate, just takes a little while to load.
This has got to be one of my favourites, secretly snaps some cuties feet on the bus and then asks them to pose for the camera. Dude has got some balls on him.

JAD thinks that Wiki is the end all of searches.
JAD, look at the sources mate.

I have been checking out feet just because of this stupid thread... not that I totally mind.
In past few days I have only seen a few where the middle toe passes the big one and NONE where it is an inch larger.
OP, your myth has been BUSTED |
