Long nail on little finger -why?

I had a discussion with my mrs yesterday and it ended like this: post it on YD and find out! Ok here is the question:

In various countries many people (mostly men I think) grow long their finger nail on the little finger, normally left hand. Why is this? Those that have been to Egypt may have noticed this, I did often in Africa but my Mrs noticed it on her teenage students yesterday (here in portugal). She's completely bemused. I have a crude theory which I thought was true but will not say so yet so I can try to get some unbiased opinions. Thoughts anyone?
