Middle finger

Giving 'the finger' (the middle finger) is an obscene gesture meaning to curse someone.
== History ==
The finger was used in ancient Greek and Roman times. It had the connotation of copulation as well.
It is used not just in western culture, but in eastern culture as well, as illustrated by the following passage when LC gives the finger to the ancient races.
== Story ==
“It should mean he’s cursing others. You should just ask Long Chen,” said Yan Nantian awkwardly.
Of course he knew what it meant, but could he really explain such a thing?
“Junior apprentice-sister, don’t listen to Grand Elder’s nonsense. This has nothing to do with cursing others. The thumb represents number one, the forefinger represents number two, and the third finger represents number three. My meaning is that I’m number one, and they’re not even qualified to be number two. They can only be third-rates…” Long Chen once more began spouting nonsense with a straight face.
