Women and Smiling
I have been reading the responses to
the blog entry on women and smiling.
As I say in my book. I really think they are just incredibly uncomfortable.
When men see a smiling women, they know she isn't a threat. A women who is not smiling
is troubling. Men as a gender don't read the subtle differences in facial
expressions. They have difficulty discerning the 57 types of smiles. I am
speaking on body language and first impressions at a Women of Color conference
in New York next month and one of the tactics I will be discussing is choosing
to smile or not smile.
