Body Language
Written on 12:58 AM by Anonymous
Language as we all know is a frustrating, confusing yet interesting & en terning. Why? Language consisted of grammars, nouns, verbs, adverbs, clauses...etc. Can we acknowledge that we truly know what we are saying & transmitting the signals to other people? Body Language betrays & tells what's real & what's a hoax. How?
Our body is the message we use to signal & communicate through daily life either unconsciously or consciously. Clinical studies have revealed the extend to which body language can actually contradict verbal communications. A classic example is a young woman who told her psychiatrist that she loved her boyfriend very much while nodding her head from side to side in subconscious denial.
The unconscious widening of the pupil when the eyes sees something pleasant indicates interest. Research shown that the pupil of a normal man's eye becomes twice as large when he sees a picture of a nude woman. Body language can include any non-reflexive or reflexive moment of a part, or all of the body, used by a person to communicate an emotional message to the outside world.
In a city such as New York where a girl can expect almost anything, especially at a cocktail party, she learns to send out a message saying 'hands off'. To do so, she will stand rigidly, cross her legs demurely when sitting, cross her arms over her chest & use other such defensive gestures. The point of every situation there must be two elements to body language, the delivery of the message & the reception of the message.
Watch the girl's gesture & the misinterpretations of the man.
