Former FBI Agent Answers Body Language Questions From Twitter…Again! | WIRED
Former FBI agent and body language expert Joe Navarro once again answers the internet’s burning questions about body language. Are micro expressions more pronounced over Zoom? Does eye contact mean something different in other cultures? What does it mean if your leg shakes? Check out Joe’s book “Be Exceptional” Books By Joe Navarro: Joe Navarro…

Some of these questions are so cringey. The guys asking, “a female is shaking her leg–is she showing me this?” and “the waitress at a restaurant wouldn’t make eye contact with me–I’m guessing her ethnicity and she must be syrian, unwed, and attracted to me, right?” GROSS.

The question about men not reading body language: probably part of it is not caring as much, but also not having to read the people around you as much for safety reasons. Being perceived as a woman in the world is far more dangerous than being read as a man. Just being out in public makes you very conscious of your surroundings, Is someone following me? Is this man gonna stop me and talk to me? Am I going to get assaulted? Etc. And yes those are very real things. I can’t step foot outside without having to deal with some type of negative male interaction. That reality will make you far better at reading people quickly in order to avoid dangerous situations, or escape them.
Secondly, women (afab people) are also SOCIALIZED to be people pleasing, obeying and overall more caring. I think it’s engrained in a lot of us that we ought to make people comfortable in order to adhere to society’s expectations but for safety reasons as well.
Saying women are better at reading social cues/ body language because of biology and motherhood is very oversimplifying and doesn’t even touch on the fact that women have to navigate a patriarchal society.

“lack of eye contact should not equate to anything other than ‘this is what the person chooses'” – in several African tribes / cultures I understand it can be construed as a sign of respect to avoid eye contact … you prefaced with ‘eye conact/duration etc.’ is cultural and gave a couple of examples (1.9s~4s for American v Middle East etc.) but appear to generalise in the case of lack of eye contact. any thoughts RE your certainty in doing so (always the case that lack of eye contact should not be construed as a cultural/personal trait, wheras duration of eye contact should)?

I feel like a lot of aspects to many of these questions weren’t answered, and I found that disappointing. For example, the aspect on the last one “to keep them safe.” If someone is, say, feigning kindness before they mug you (if that’s a thing), what would be some good indicators of upcoming betrayal? I grew up in a rural area so I am not really familiar with some of this stuff myself. Main thing I would know to look for would be the nature of the location and whether any given story adds up. Specific body language to indicate hostility or desperation I am not so familiar with in this context.

How much of what Joe is talking about is backed up by research? He’s a great presenter and obviously super knowledgeable, but some of his comments almost feel like cold reading where the analysis is based on already knowing the context of the situation.
Also, the comments about power posing despite the fact that Amy Cuddy’s original findings are quite controversial with few successful replications of the original study.

Bouncing legs often mean a mineral deficiency, likely due to bad but calorie rich diet. That’s my opinion, but I’ve confirmed it time after time. Very predictive.
Twylen
April 8, 2022 at 9:06 pm
If it isn’t controlled, maybe, but bouncing a leg is often a stim, as he said, a self-soothing behavior. It gets jitters out and nervous energy out.

It’s always very endearing to see foreigners talking about our very peculiar thing to have yes and no reversed in Bulgaria. It’s actually an issue for many Bulgarians when they speak another language – the non-verbal language doesn’t make the same instant switch as the verbal one and sometimes you have to force it, so to say. Sometimes I’ve had English-speaking friends look at me puzzled because I’ve kept my “Bulgarian” expressions in non-Bulgarian settings.

I grew up bilingual, BG and English, and my nodding/shaking changes depending on the language. Don’t have to think about it, it’s crazy, and I’ve caught myself answering questions in consecutive sentences with the same gesture meaning both yes and no haha

Bah, the reason there’s a gender-linked difference with the ability to read non-verbal cues, is that women are taught to LEARN that, and men are taught that they can IGNORE it.

I really appreciate the reminder to teach body language skills. I’m autistic and have the capability to learn rote. Learning what to look for, and when to read (or not) into things certainly needs to be taught for everyone, neurotypical and neurodiverse. Because I learned, I could explain to others who ask, “You’re autistic, how did you know they were really mad about that?” I would love to see it taught in schools.

I am an elementary school teacher and specifically take time out of curriculum to teach emotional behavior, how to recognize stress and how to calm down, and sometimes send kids to à counselors office or the library in order to decompress, whilst explaining that I am in no way punishing them.

Half of the reason I find Zoom calls so exhausting is precisely that need to telegraph emotions more obviously, smiling, nodding, etc, especially while taking notes. It’s another thing to focus on, and the hyperawareness is draining.

Different MBTI very likely wouldn’t have different body language since that is not a valid psychological categorisation of people. It’s a horoscope of psychology.

One way of asserting dominance I’ve had older people do to me is they’ll shake your hand and then keep ahold of your hand while talking to you. It’s like subliminally saying “I’ll decide when this conversation is over. You leave when I allow it”

I’ve always hated making eye contact, and it would make me want to lash out whenever someone said “look at me”. I just… can’t. I cannot do it, and have the action be natural. My boss noticed and said, “You don’t have to look at my eyes. I can see it’s not comfortable for you.” And I appreciate that.

Thank you for your response to the eye contact question. Especially for autistic people where us avoiding eye contact is a common trait, people assuming we’re being deceptive or rude or such can be very damaging.
Personally eye contact feels challenging to me and raises my hackles. But for some autists it’s actually painful.
Body language can tell us a lot but eye contact isn’t all that.

Oh, please. Women don’t read nonverbal cues because they might be mothers, it’s because girls are expected to learn how to understand, soothe, and placate, while boys are taught to prioritize appearing strong and in control. It’s societal, not biological. GTFOH with that bioessentialist crap.

I wonder if some can expand or debunk this but everyone that I’ve seen with a look of dead eyes and extreme focus at the same time always turned out to be bad people.. be thieves on the bus, a man flirting with me or a woman in a office.

Why does shaking your head left to right mean no, why does shaking it up and down mean yes.
In India it doesn’t mean that. India does a bobble motion to mean yes, here it looks like indecisiveness/”IDK”. They have completely different body language than we do. It’s super interesting, actually! The motion bye palms up and waving bye means “come here”.
And the eye contact with middle eastern people is so frustrating when I want to connect with them and they wont speak to me or look at me. Sigh.

If a mf shakes my hand rudely I just forcefully take my hand back
If you can’t give a proper handshake I ain’t giving you my time

That rambling answer about secret handshakes was really weird. What would somebody squeezing your hand really hard have to do with secret handshakes? And why would you try to avoid them? They’re secret already! 😣

to elaborate on the mbti since he didn’t:
these personality tests have been disproven by psychologists and are meaningless. humans are far too complex to be categorized black/white into several boxes the way these tests do. most humans fall the in the “average” part of a spectrum rather than the extreme black/white.

Someone needs to have a word with Germans (in Berlin at least) about personal space, because as a New Yorker I was not having it.

Me and my Manager don’t get along. I started using more dominant body language during my twice yearly performance reviews and what I found was interesting. I stopped looking around the room, locked eye contact, widened my posture in the chair, and didn’t lean forward. Immediately, he’s wringing his hands, leaning forward, using fillers like “Uh” or “Um”, and looking off to the side. To be clear, my strategy hasn’t won me promotions or raises but it did stop his bullying tactics in their tracks.

fun fact, if you ask someone to explain something or tell story while sitting on their hands, they will speak slower and have more trouble remembering what they’re saying because they can’t gesture.

I always thought that little to no eye contact, indicated disinterest or not paying attention.

On the eye contact thing: In the area I grew up (in West Africa), among the older/more traditional generation, younger people were expected to NOT look at their “elders” in the eye for a prolonged amount of time. It definitely is a cultural thing. I’m a white American dude who grew up in Africa – it’s always interesting comparing life in the US to what I experienced overseas for the first 18 years of my life haha.

As someone on the autism spectrum, I was happy when he mentioned that eye contact is a personal choice. It’s not entirely necessary for non verbal communication and I can simply have less eye contact if needed. 🙂

I don’t disagree with the analysis that a neutral face CAN equate to a negative perception by the other party. I do take issue with people who insist on smiling so much so that it looks disingenuous. Maybe personal, but I would suspect more people would rather interact with someone’s genuine presence rather than a fake smile.
