'A Yes
Face'
We all
have a face, a unique face. We 'like' as well as 'unlike' everybody else's
face. That may sound a great deal like double talk. But it's true; our faces
are unique and different from everyone else's face. That is a scientific fact. Every
face has pretty much the same general features; eyes, nose, mouth etc. Most are
somewhat symmetrical because they are on the front of our somewhat round heads.
People are recognized, socially primarily by their facial features, secondarily
by their body structure, height, weight and form.
If I
were to ask you; "What's the first thing you notice when you look at a
person? It's unlikely that you would say their shoes" If you are honest
you will say it is their face. A new survey asked both men and women to name
the first thing they notice when they meet someone of the opposite sex. The top
answer for both men and women was 'eyes'. The second-most common answer
for both was 'smile'. Both very politically correct choices. In another
study where people were asked; "What do they see in another person that
may provide the best first impression?" The most frequent answer was
the word, 'smile'. Ask just any man on the street, what they notice first about
another person, the answer would most likely be; 'Their face of course.' Our
faces are in the front and uncovered, they are often shiny and they usually
greet most everyone, even a stranger, with a smile - I have always liked people
with a ready smile. The eyes would come in second because they reveal a lot. It
is very true; our faces are noticed first by the majority of other people.
