Chapter 10 Section 9 The FBI will also look down - how to observe the legs and feet

Whether you are attending a wedding or a birthday reception, the two or more parties who greet each other should first observe each other's face according to their daily behavior habits. In particular, men's appreciation of beautiful women often starts from the face, but ignores the information on the legs and feet. The FBI believes that legs and feet are important weight-bearing organs and movement organs of the human body, and the information they send can faithfully express a person's feelings and intentions from one side. In the process of human evolution, legs and feet have two main functions: one is to find food, and the other is to serve as a tool for escape when encountering danger.Since the human brain works directly on these two functions, looking for what it wants and avoiding things that are harmful to its life, human legs and feet can reflect their inner movements.Happy, nervous, shy, confident, impetuous, etc., the information of legs and feet will give you a correct answer.

We often have such a detail happen in meetings, watching sports events, etc.: the upper body of the body remains static, while the legs and feet are constantly moving around.What does such an action mean? The FBI believes that a person who keeps his upper body still and gently swings his legs and feet is a sign of discomfort or discomfort.Sometimes, however, a slight wiggle of the legs and feet can be a response to some good news. Locke, an FBI body language expert, usually arranges a poker game when training police officers, allowing the police officers to carefully observe the players' legs and feet, but the police officers always feel baffled.After the event, Locke told the officers that when the players had a good hand, their legs and feet would swing around under the table, but their faces remained calm and unchanged.In other words, when people are happy or excited, they will always dance unconsciously.

Locke, an FBI body language expert, went on to tell the officers that if the slight swinging of the legs and feet turned into a "kicking" movement, it must be that the person concerned may be responding negatively to what is happening around him, and he can't wait to kick it away with his feet immediately. .Also, twisting the ankle back and forth indicates that a person is stressed out and impatient. The FBI believes that if you are talking to a leader and he adjusts the toes of one or both feet away from you, he is actually signaling to you that he wants to leave.The reason may be that the leader is not satisfied with your conversation with him, or the time has come to meet someone else.At this time, you must understand the leader's thoughts and quickly end the conversation between you, this is the most sensible.If you are still chattering with the leader, one is to make the leader very annoying, and the effect you want will be greatly reduced. At this time, the leader will not concentrate on listening to you and report the situation to him, and his consciousness has shifted to the next level. on one thing.

Locke, an FBI body language expert, believes that the legs are spread apart to convey the meaning of dominance. It is a typical male stance, because this movement can fully emphasize the man's reproductive organs, which makes this stance quite masculine. .You will often see this posture on company leaders or superiors. This posture will make the leaders appear very confident, and even make the subordinates feel a domineering momentum.Of course, this posture can also be seen on the police, who show their majesty and control by posing with their legs apart.In the FBI, the posture when standing on both feet is specially regarded as an assessment subject.

The FBI believes that crossed legs have multiple meanings: one meaning is obedience, conservatism and even a defensive attitude, which is manifested as if people with crossed legs will keep a long distance from other participants if they participate in a meeting on the same occasion, If you talk to these people, you will find that they are not familiar with other participants; another meaning is the performance of comfort and relaxation, because it is impossible for people to make escape or fight actions with their legs crossed. The system will naturally send a signal to prohibit the above two behaviors; in addition, there is a European version of crossing the legs, that is, sitting with one leg lightly placed on the other leg.When a person is talking with you, if he crosses his legs and arms, it means that his guilt has wandered out of your conversation, and at this time you want to persuade him to express your point of view. Sincerely convinced, it must be very difficult.

When a person puts the weight of the body on one hip and leg so that the other foot is extended forward, we call this standing position a rest. The FBI believes that the resting posture is the most conducive to judging a person's current intentions, because the resting posture looks similar to a person who is about to take a step, and often the direction that people's outstretched toes point to is his heart. where you want to go.If we are talking with many people, the foot we put out in the resting pose always faces the most attractive person; but if we want to leave, the foot we put out will point toward The nearest exit to us.

Based on our experience as an FBI interviewer for more than 30 years, we have found that when a person clasps his feet at the ankles during a conversation, something subconscious occurs inside him, such as biting his lip, or putting his hands side by side and crossing. Folded and gently placed on the lap, the meaning of this expression is anxiety, worry, panic or fear. The FBI conducted a survey of 319 dental patients in the courtroom. The survey showed that when waiting for the court sentence, the defendant was three times more likely to buckle his ankles than the plaintiff. The survey of dental patients showed that 88% of the patients Sitting in a dental chair involves interlocking your ankles.

However, in the process of research and investigation, we also found that proper questioning techniques have a 42% chance of allowing the ankle-locked conversation partner to release their ankles and return to a relaxed state. Crossing the legs and keeping the shins parallel poses one leg tightly attached to the other, which makes the legs look healthier, younger and more feminine. The FBI believes that this pose will attract men because it is extremely sexy.This sitting position is taught in modeling training courses as well as in manners classes.Studies have shown that some women always cross and unclip their legs frequently when they get along with the man they like.In addition, this sitting posture was voted by men as the most beloved female sitting posture.

FBI investigations show that in parties, there are often some guests rubbing their thighs while observing their surroundings; employees who have just received unsatisfactory work feedback reports will also rub their thighs while reading the report; This move.Obviously, rubbing back and forth on the thighs with both hands is a sign of calming down and reducing stress.This method of rubbing thighs can effectively relieve our inner restlessness and anxiety, and it can also keep us calm and focused. People have the experience that when encountering irritating things in life or work, they will stomp their feet in anger; and when encountering happy things, their feet will jump up to express their inner joy.It can be said that foot information can intuitively reflect a person's inner emotions and personality traits.
