Former FBI agent and body language expert Joe Navarro is back to explain why we feel they way we do about certain types of body language. Why do we shake hands, and why does a bad handshake turn us off so much? Why do we feel uncomfortable being stared at? Is there a reason why people manspread?

Handshake has always been a great initial indicator of intent and general personality for me. You give me some weak, weird or aggressive handshake, I-ll judge you for it. Weak handshake means you-re either uncomfortable with the situation or a hesitant/flakey person. Weird (like the forced flip, over the top thing) means you-re trying some psychological bs. And aggressive is usually just that, overly aggressive type-a person I don-t like to deal with (think -head- of car sales. Just judging these 3 have honestly rarely lead me astray.

Some people just do not fit the social stereotype. Autistic or atypical people for example do things that many would criticize. Even when autistic people try to be normal, they still get judged. They stare they get judged. They do not stare they get judged. They talk they get judged. They do not talk they get judged. Certain minorities just do not fit the social stereotype. In many cases the social minorities never fit in regardless if they try.

So I must be alien. I hate to have to touch other humans. I do not shake hands. My ex boss said when he told me I was hired and put his hand out to shake mine I looked at him like a deer in headlights. I did smile and say thank you so much, but I do not touch others. So he decided he wants to do this elbow bump thing. Do not touch me! Elbows, hands, whatever this is not needed in communication with me.

What is it with people who have a habit of talking with their eyes closed most of the time through out a conversation or an interview? And also, there was this certain person who while sitting at her desk would turn around (to answer a question per say) with her eye balls rolled up practically under her skull, her eyelids quivering with just the white of her eyes beneath the iris showing?

When I visited Italy in 1987 and I was age 30, every time I walked past a man or group of men in Florence, they would have to adjust their punishment. These men literally touch it over their clothes. This is to move it or make room or whatever.
I think reflecting on this adds a good balance to the material in this most treasured video. This is a wonderful video!
Thank you.

Re hand shaking. I once, working as an accountant, had a stroppy client, a GP as it happens. I had been taught in my long ago childhood that it is a woman's prerogative whether or not she shakes a man's hand. On greeting him before a meeting I smiled but ignored his outstretched hand. It gave me a tremendous psychological advantage. His normal superciliousness disappeared.

I think manspreading is normal, I don't want my balls to squeeze or sweat, and I'm an introverted person, I have always notice that I try to take as minimum space as possible. I think this is the only thing that wouldn't apply to everyone, is difficult for me to close my legs, unless y cross them and put my testicles below my lews in some weird way. lol

Obnoxiously spreading your legs is one thing, but sitting with your legs slightly spread is normal since, you know, males have a sack with two very sensitive reproductive organs between our legs that don-t like to be crushed or overheated. The women who scream mAnSpReAdiNg every chance they get are out of touch with reality

Half of these I agree with, it's pushing being annoying, but I think some are just pet peeves people build do to personal reasons.
I do think through generations ones culture is shaped based on a hierarchy, and each level of class has some of these pet peeves so to be able to look down on others.

Shaking hands was to show you didn't have six fingers. Biblical thing. Read the book of Genesis about demons mating with women. (if you know what a woman is, apparently some do, and the spiritual side does) Think of the the David and Goliath story.
