Did you know that your body language can play a major part in your relationships? If you have ever studied the basics of human courtship, then you may already know that men are usually depicted as the “hunters”. The women they pursue usually reflect the “best” aspects of American society. Men want to look successful and so seek out not just the prettiest face or the woman with the most attractive figure- he wants the whole package.
However, not every woman who lands a great guy is a supermodel or movie star. How do they do it? What draws the average man to women today? It’s not all about appearances. Men are visual creatures but they pay attention to more than just the level of attractiveness. They also notice gesturing, preening, facial expressions and other forms of body language.
Most of all, men who take on the role of “hunter” in relationships, are looking for women that have movement. You might liken this philosophy to a jungle setting. The hunter carefully scans his surroundings and looks for a satisfying prey. That “prey” looks healthy, attractive and is in constant movement.
Is this a primitive view of romance? Yes, but we can’t deny the fact that as human beings, we are animals—living organisms characterized by voluntary movement. Biologically speaking, there are certain forces of nature at work. Men respond visually, women respond emotionally, and the two creatures communicate through body language and conversation.
Some popular examples of female body language might include playing with the hair, “exposing” parts like shoulders, upper arms and backs or keeping eye contact. Remember it’s the “movement” that counts. There are many details involved in courtship, and sometimes being oblivious to the signs can sabotage a person’s dating potential. The more you learn about courtship and dating, the more you will grow in your relationships.
