How Women And Men Listen
posted in Wealth, relationship, romance, Entertainment, education, self improvement/self development, Life, Self Improvement |Hello there,
I came across this article and found it very interesting and thought I would like to share with you.
This article commented that typically, a woman can use an average of 6 listening expressions in a ten-second period to reflect, and then feed back the speaker’s emotions. Her face will mirror the emotions being expressed by the speaker. To someone watching, it can almost look as if the events being discussed are happening to both women.
Below is a typical ten-second sequence of a woman showing she is listening:-
A woman reads the meaning of what is being said through voice intonation and the speaker’s body language. This is exactly what a man needs to do to capture a woman’s attention and keep her listening. Most men are daunted by the prospect of using facial feedback while listening, but it pays big dividends for the man who becomes adept at the art.
On the other hand, men appears to listen like statues. This is because the biological objective of our male warrior when listening was to remain impassive, so as not to betray his emotions.
Here are the same range of facial expressions used by a man in a ten-second listening periods.
This is a light-hearted look at male listening technique, but recognising the truth in the humour gives it edge. This emotionless mask that men use while listening allows them to feel in control of the situation, but does not mean a man does not experience emotions. Brain scans reveal that men feel emotion as strongly as women, but avoid showing it.
