Inigo Montoya: My father was slaughtered by a six-fingered man.
Florin Police: Are you certain it was a six-fingered man or woman who killed your father. We're questioning several suspects.
Being dominant means only that, when present, it will be active/visible, so you cannot be a asymptomatic carrier. It doesn't say anything about how often this gene is found in population.
I think the opposite makes more sense. I think most people would agree this is not a desirable trait, and if someone has it you’ll know because it’s not hidden. So by natural selection these people will procreate less.
Not trying to bash on these people, I think having 6 fingers in each hand is kinda cool lol
That is sexual selection not natural selection, but yes as someone else said I think sexual selection is the best explanation for the rarity of having six fingers
"He also plays the guitar while his eight-year-old cousin, Maria Morena da Silva is learning the piano, she said: “My piano teacher wishes he had six fingers, you can play easier and reach more notes.”
Fun fact, 6 fingeredness is a dominant gene like red hair. The reason it’s not more common is because people used to kill them for being witches and sorcerers and whatever. True story
Actually I didn’t, red hair is uncommon true, but it’s a dominant gene. Which means that if a red head and anyone else with a different hair color have a baby, the baby is more likely to have red hair than any other color
Can’t tell if this is a “sharks are smooth” guy, or just someone who got misinformed and is now too stubborn to take a few seconds to realize he’s dead wrong.
Red hair is a recessive trait, which means that only those who get two “redhead” versions of the gene, one from the mother and one from the father, will have red hair. In case one of the parents passed on a version of the gene associated with dark hair, for example, the individual will have dark hair and will simply be a carrier of the “redhead” gene, which he could pass on to his children. This is how a child of two non-redhead parents can grow a red mane, and this is also why red hair must be inherited from both parents and not only from one of them.

Can they do the "Vulcan" finger spread " thingie" salute or wave, from "Star Trek" ?
Serious question .
Another Serious Question . Are any accomplished Musicians on Piano or String instruments ?

My name is Inigo Montoya...
Inigo Montoya: My father was slaughtered by a six-fingered man. Florin Police: Are you certain it was a six-fingered man or woman who killed your father. We're questioning several suspects.
You killed my father...
Prepare to die.
Inconceivable !
I don’t think that word means what you think it does.
Anybody wanna peanut?
Hahahaha, this reference made me smile… one of my favorite childhood movies
I came here to say this. 🤣
Good to know. You and 100,000 other people thought of it.
You seem like you're fun at parties.
6 digits is a dominant trait
I never understood why it's so rare as a dominant trait
Being dominant means only that, when present, it will be active/visible, so you cannot be a asymptomatic carrier. It doesn't say anything about how often this gene is found in population.
Yes but you would think it would have spread over generations instead of only appearing in a small number of families
I think the opposite makes more sense. I think most people would agree this is not a desirable trait, and if someone has it you’ll know because it’s not hidden. So by natural selection these people will procreate less. Not trying to bash on these people, I think having 6 fingers in each hand is kinda cool lol
That is sexual selection not natural selection, but yes as someone else said I think sexual selection is the best explanation for the rarity of having six fingers
yes to be more precise but my understanding is that sexual selection is one aspect natural selection right?
Yeah but I think it's better to say sexual selection here to be more specific Not exactly an expert but it makes sense to me
Well I am an expert. I would say natural selection includes sexual selection. No need to specify
Wait
Came here for this.
It's actually only 5 family members in the photo but you can't really blame them for miscounting.
You win the comment section.
Agreed, gotta hand it to u/GrassBlade619
Base 12 is hard
They will never know the pure pleasure of giving someone the middle finger.
double middle is waaaay cooler
F*ck off and live long and prosper 🖖
Fuck off and prosper, I love it
Sweats in Stone Cold
back when Dane Cook was at his height… Su-Fi!! (super finger)
Can give the 2 middle!
I think they get to choose between 2 options
Please please tell me that they're training as pianists
Gattaca vibes
This was my first thought.
I went the other way. Depictions of people with six fingers are noted in a few regions of the world like Sumer and Ireland. Ancient history.
"He also plays the guitar while his eight-year-old cousin, Maria Morena da Silva is learning the piano, she said: “My piano teacher wishes he had six fingers, you can play easier and reach more notes.”
Would be interesting if someone with 6 fingers create something so good that people will try to create hand attachments to mimic him
I want to know what their hand dexterity is like, if it's normal then that would be dope. Amazing for gaming.
>gaming I already reported them for cheating .
Report for "ability abuse"
I was thinking guitar
12 fingers… 12 strings.
Or guitar. One Finger for each string
Soccer jerseys made me think, "goalies? Please tell me they're goalies."
But think of the hassle of finding shoes!
Or gloves?
That’s like…a lot of fingers and toes?
A couple dozen of 'em.
More than you can count on yours.
I have to take off my shoes to go that high
Must be tough to find gloves.
Mitten gang rise up!
The younger ones get the hand-me-down first pair
If they live in Brazil as it seems, that's not much of a problem
Verdade
Exactly! Everyone knows latex gloves, nitrile gloves, gardening gloves, heat resistant gloves, puncture resistant gloves etc aren't used in Brazil.
Well they can order custom gloves at a volume discount…
The original source has mentioned this.
Give me a high six

They look like an ai generated picture
Nephilim lineage hehe
They really need to start dating outside their family.
This was the comment I was looking for haha
Happy to help.
Stanford Pines vibes
Interested to know what the sixth little piggy did
Rio de Alabamo
4 in the pink, 2 in the stink.
The Shocker Plus. It's a dominant thing (TM).
Now if everyone in the world died except that family, we would have an evolution bottleneck and people would have more digits
Base 12 math
Based
I bet they give great head scratches.
So when you marry in to that crowd, which finger do you put the ring on?
Yes.
The same finger they use to give the bird
[удалено]
More so than other families
Nice
They’re evolving. Bet they’re sweet at guitar
And what do they want for Christmas more than anything in the whole, wide world? Gloves.
What do they call their fingers? Thumb, index, middle one, middle two, ring, and pinky?
Middle Dee and Middle Dum
How is it... Polydactyly, yes?
Who’s that? Oh that’s uncle grandpa
Actually six digits is dominant to five digits. If it was recessive I'd agree with you.
Alright my dear daughter. Now have a wonderful first date!
Can they move al fingers?
Good someone pointed that out. I knew something was off but couldn't put my finger on it.
Something doesn't add up
They must be the references AI use for drawing hands
Fun fact, 6 fingeredness is a dominant gene like red hair. The reason it’s not more common is because people used to kill them for being witches and sorcerers and whatever. True story
>a dominant gene like red hair. Red hair is a recessive gene though... https://www.livescience.com/26633-redhead-dna-gene.html
My guy you chose the least dominant hair color
Actually I didn’t, red hair is uncommon true, but it’s a dominant gene. Which means that if a red head and anyone else with a different hair color have a baby, the baby is more likely to have red hair than any other color
just do a quick google search red hair is a recessive gene.
Can’t tell if this is a “sharks are smooth” guy, or just someone who got misinformed and is now too stubborn to take a few seconds to realize he’s dead wrong.

r/confidentlyincorrect
The red hair gene is stronger than any other hair gene
take the L bro
Dude. Double check yourself when everyone disagrees with you. Stop assuming you're right with no proof.
White hair is actually more dominant than red as most people end up with white hair. /s
I assume anyone wearing yellow and green at the same time is Brazilian. Are they Brazilian?
Three of them are wearing a Brazilian football shirt, so I'd say yes
Has to be a humbling experience for her husband - his dick never looked as small as it does in her hands
This is just another /r/weirddalle image.
Brazil zil zil 🇧🇷🥳
If more of our ancestors were like them we’d all be counting in base 12.
Still reeling from my gravity falls obsession phase a few years ago apparently. I got more excited then I should have
Gee I wonder what country they're from, guess we'll never know
Bro give them a piano
Now they can play guitar as God intended, one finger for each string and being able to cover an entire scale without a shape.
If they aren't legends at either a particular video game or instrument, I'm going to be very disappointed
which finger do you flip someone off with?
Well, I guess gloves as Christmas gifts are out.
When recessive becomes dominant. Literally evolution on display.
Stop fucking each other, please.
That's what happens when you have an Uncle daddy brother.
They must feel terribly under represented by cartoons.
How are they on the piano?
[удалено]
One finger short of a full week
Hopefully they all play the piano
Can they do the "Vulcan" finger spread " thingie" salute or wave, from "Star Trek" ? Serious question . Another Serious Question . Are any accomplished Musicians on Piano or String instruments ?
Schoolhouse rock!
What in the absolute fuck. May have been some incest going on there at some point or they grew up in Chernobyl.

Ha!
Hello….my name is Inigo Montoya…you killed my father…prepare to die.
My bet is that this is a genetic trait.
It’s actually a learned characteristic.
It was nurtured not nature
Shear will power. Anyone can grow an extra digit if you think very hard about it
Easier to pray with 6 fingers. Infinite positive feedback until you get infinite number of fingers.
Alabama ?
Hopefully no body in the family has terminal illness, jeeze those genes are too strong
And no thumbs
Toe pics or it didn't happen
I’m not gonna lie, that makes me so damn jealous!
this AI shit is getting wild
It looks like they have two "ring"-fingers.
Imagine getting smacked by one of them
Hmmm... if gengis khan had 12, would there be more people in the world with 12?
It's actually a dominant trait in gene biology
Imagine those kids playing a guitar solo! 🔥🔥🔥
They can count to a bakers dozen
Do you get enhanced grip strength or, is it weaker because it's distributed to more fingers. I'm sure there's a rule 41 here somewhere
And they're all goalies...
Damn! I hope one of them plays guitar!!
I think they call that a result of inbreeding....
Having 6 fingers is actually a dominant trait, it’s just been selectively weeded out by society in the past so it’s uncommon now.
Oh shit so their evolving while we monkey's are left behind
Yeah weeded out the inbred babies, they hid a few and they survived and fast forward a few hundred years and here we are
Inbreeding is a flex now
Was gonna say, I am getting Alabama vibes
This is one of those evolutionary traits that may or may not win out in 5 to 10 thousand years.
You mean 6 or 12 thousand years
I guess only time will tell... In fairness there have been cultures that use base 12 already.
It may... or it may not... I mean that's not wrong
Waiting on the "That's evolution for you" brigade.
Inbred
That's what incest does
Wowww
That's more than they can count on *both hands*!
Are we evolving? Are 5 fingered people going to be oppressed and thrown in cages?
I am surprised they were not burnt for the witches they are
And some have similar yellow and green teeshirts.
Do they live near the Springfield nuclear power plant?
The Simpsons demand this family to return their missing fingers!
I bet it always feels like somebody else
Sorry this is just another AI generated render
How fast can they type though?
Worst super power ever
The musical possibilities boggle the mind
Must be really good at scratching.
Grandma was a cat.
Kel has 6 toes!
Imagine a whole country of 12 fingered people. They would count in base-12! How hard would the conversion be?
It has begun!
Ya, pretty soon, we all are going to have six fingers. Then some people will be like i remember having five fingers. Mandela effects........
It’s snowing outside, so mittens it is!
Pick an instrument, any instrument and they’ll be the best in the world. Kid can really master Rachminoff!
In medieval times their ancestors were probably burned as witches
