Why do some men have a long pinky nail?

I have seen the responses dealing with coke sniffing. My father had a long nail and believe me he was the anti-drug redneck of the universe. So coke was out of the question. Also, he was really old (born in 1918 and died at 88 in 2006), but I never got a chance to ask him why.

    Coke nail & if you think coke was out of the question, did you think they just invented it in the 1970's?

    But, anti drug redneck eh, the kind into chawing tebacky & snuff? Could be a snuff nail. Or just crappy nail trimming habits.

    Pinky nails perpetually develop rapid...It looks like they do cuz they hardly ever spoil. But some guys might think its female or homosexual to cut their nails. My bf had a habit of biting his nails, so his not ever grew too long lolz.

    The only time I've seen a long pinky nail on a man it was strictly for cocaine use. I've seen this more on the Hispanic population than anyone else. Hopefully your dad had a different reason. You may never find the answer if he and your mother have already passed.

    A couple of guys told me they use it as a tool.
