We’re often taught to not judge a book by its cover. And sure, it’s a great and eloquent way to say that people are more than their looks, and that you should really value a person’s character and who they are inside, and pay more attention to what they say and do, rather than just judge them by appearance. But have you ever felt that you can just tell what kind of person someone is at first glance, just by looking at their face? Is that judgemental? Is that wrong? Well, turns out there’s quite a bit that a person’s face can reveal about them.
We all can more or less read body language, which has a lot to do with how we stand, which muscles we use more, etc. For example, when a person is shy or scared they tend to close in on themselves and tense up, which is easily readable. You can always spot a shy person in a room full of people. Using that logic you can also do the same with reading faces, after all, we’ve got quite a lot of them in our faces, and it would make sense that the ones we use the most are the most prominent. So for example, if a person has a lot of lines on their forehead, you could presume they worry a lot. Or if they have those lines in between their eyebrows, they’re either angry or confused a lot, cause they furrow their brows. But a people reader from Australia has an even more fascinating theory.
