LANGUAGE SECRETS
There are major differences between male and female body language. In
this report, I'm going to show you how to fine tune your “body talk” so you
can give off the signals of a sexy, confident woman.
The three biggest differences between the way men and women hold their
bodies are:
The #1 body language rule you need to remember is that women take up
less space than men.
Studies have shown that open body positions are associated with a display
of power.
Men display their “power” by sitting and standing with their legs spread and
their elbows out, while women keep their limbs closer to their bodies.
Besides making you look more passive and feminine, a closed stance also
makes you appear physically smaller.
Straight vs. Curved
Sexy women are all about curves, including the way they hold their bodies.
Women tend make s-shaped curves when they sit or stand.
Men's bodies are more linear. They sit and stand in angles, rather than
curves.
Making an s-curve with your body (by balancing your weight on one side)
has the added benefit of making your body look more voluptuous.
Weight Forward vs. Weight Neutral
Men are always giving off subtle displays of power. Another way they
display power is by leaning forward – as if they are constantly poised for
action.
Women tend to keep their weight neutrally balanced and hold their bodies
in more receptive positions.
... Now that you know the 3 major differences between male and female
stances, let's talk about specific do's and don'ts for each part of the body.
DO'S AND DONT'S – STANDING
Posture
● DO stand with beautiful, feminine posture: Chest lifted and tummy in.
● DO keep your weight on one foot only. This causes the hip on the
supporting side of your body to jut out, giving you that sexy s-curve.
● DON'T stand with pigeon toes. A lot of women (including celebrities)
do this, but it looks awkward.
● DO position your feet in a “clock pose”. Place the heel of one foot into
the crook of the opposite foot. Imagine you are standing on a clock
and turn both feet out slightly so they are pointing at 11:00 and 2:00.
● DON'T cross your arms or stuff your hands in your pockets. These
positions give you a closed off, defensive look.
○ Placing one hand on your waist with the other arm relaxed beside
you.
○ Holding a purse.
Head
Posture
● DON'T spread your legs. I know this is common sense, but it's all too
easy to slip into old habits – especially when you are relaxing.
● DO cross your legs at the feet or ankle. A lady ALWAYS keeps her
knees together.
Head
● DO tilt your head slightly. (Don't overdo it!) A slight head tilt gives
you a demure look.
GESTURES
Gestures are a big part of body language. A basic rule of thumb is that
women are more expressive with their gestures. They tend to use their
hands a lot when they talk.
● DON'T make jerky or clumsy gestures. If your arms are long, you risk
knocking things over or whacking other people.
Your face says volumes about you. The expressions you make say as much
as the words that come out of your mouth.
Women tend to make pleasant faces. They smile more at strangers, while
men keep their game faces on. You need to practice making your face look
more friendly and open.
● DON'T wear a stoic expression. What feels “neutral” to you may come
across as grumpy to others.
● DO greet clerks, waiters, and people you meet with a smile – even if
they're strangers.
EYE CONTACT
Eye contact is a major way to gage how a person feels. People who don't
make eye contact are either insecure or have something to hide. People
who look you in the eye appear confident and sincere.
Confidence is half the battle to passing as a woman. Look people in the eye
(no matter how nervous you feel) and you are a lot more likely to be
accepted.
