I know for a fact that it came from many different places from all different time lines.
I know one of the origins and this is how it goes.
Back in medieval times or something like that if the french captured a British archer they would cut off his middle finger so he couldn't fire his arrows. When the french attacked. The British archers stuck up there middle finger showing they still had it and would shoot them in there bloody head. XD
that's what i have to say hope i helped.

Why can you not point your middle finger?
It's considered rude and an offense in many cases. It's kind of like calling someone a bad word, only your not saying anything. It means "F*** You" and those words aren't nice. It's origin came from the Hundred Year's War. When the elite British longbowmen were captured by the French, they would cut off their middle finger, as that was the finger they used to draw back the bowstring with. When a Frenchman walked passed a captured longbowman, he would point his middle finger, the Frenchman bragging that he still had a middle finger. It's been considered an offense ever since.
