Not that kind of size, you pervert. <3

I would like you to take out a ruler.

1) Measure the length of your hand from your wrist to the very tip of your middle finger.

2) Hold your hand out flat, palm up, with your fingers together, but without pressing your fingers too tightly together. Measure the width of your hand, from your first knuckle of your thumb (the knuckle farthest from the tip of the finger) to the other side of your hand directly from that knuckle.

EDIT: I didn't explain 2) very good. Basically, hold them like in this picture here (http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b371/ryechu2u/handexample.jpg).

---

Record the measurements in both inches and cm. Here is a converter. (http://annica.in-cyberspace.net/en/inch_cm.html)

Me:

1) 6 1/4 inches (15.88 cm)
2) 3 1/2 inches (8.89 cm)

I have very small hands, even for someone who's 16 and only 5'0", and I want to know the hand sizes of everyone else.

Length: 7.5 inches/19.05 cm

No. The converse is true.

I have no measuring device to hand. I will acquire one and inform at a later time, but I think it fair to say that the answer is "Quite large" :jess:

I'm so childish. :bigsmile:

I can't find a ruler right now, but I know my hands are kinda small. Well, they're about average actually, but quite skinny and really wrinkly. I have the hands of a 90 year old. But they're also surprisingly strong.

When I find a ruler I'll do the measuring bananos.

The significance is that I always need larg to Xtra Large latex gloves when I work in a kitchen or somewhere, and in joints like that everybody only buys medium and small gloves because they hate me, and it's just hell. Luckily, mechanics have big hands so at least there's plenty of fitting gloves around when I do that kind of work. But, at the end of the day, really, I'd rather have grease on my hands (Since it's all over the rest of me anyway), then have to constantly be at the sink washing my hands in a kitchen.

Actually, I hate gloves. Not only because they don't fit. And I would much rather wash my hands a lot then wear gloves, now that I think about it. Big hands are a wonderful excuse to have free hands

They say that hand size is based on the fidelity of our females. That makes us better than gorillas yet worse than chimps. Relative to its size, the barnacle has the largest hand of all the animals.

Length: 7.5 inches/19.05 cm
Width: 4.25 inches/10.8 cm

Clearly, Rye has taken this lesson to heart.

I just wanted to ask, did you get that from HOUSE? I remember it in the episode called "All In" where he's playing poker with Wilson.

And no Rye, I will not satisfy your sick hand fetish.

Unfortunately not. You see, I recognized a reference of the television show House, and was confirming whether or not it actually was from the show. Then Tavrobel responded and Rye professed her unwavering affection for Raistlin, as usual. ;)
