The ‘eyes’ thread for beginners 101: Many people are finding my ‘eyes’ tweets helpful, interesting, fascinating & disturbing. I was trained in this during my post-Masters externship. As the world deteriorates & more people become harmful, it is imperative you learn

about the eyes, facial affect or expressions, inappropriate facial affect that does not match content & context, #bodylanguage & forensic statement analysis. People cannot control their #subconscious behaviors & words, ‘leaking’ out #psychological information about themselves

This is known as ‘leakage’. First off, non verbal body language including the eyes & statement analysis is not something the ‘subject’ can control. This is ‘leakage’ or ‘tells’. The first thing you need to do is study 7 basic #emotions & what true facial expressions look like.

Once you understand
what normal true facial expressions look like, body language looks like, truthful language sounds like, THEN you can start studying what deviates from that. For example, what are the difference between true facial expression & ‘blended’

facial expressions? What is a genuine non-happy
Facial expression versus a non-genuine one? In Genuine facial expressions, the eyes & mouth match. In non-genuine ones, they don’t. These blended faces can be disconcerting to others & feel ‘creepy’ to some people 👇🏻

But they don’t know why they feel creeped out. In a genuine happy face, we look
For the smiling eyes & smiling mouth. It should look natural & the eyes should show the Duchenne marker or ‘crows feet’ at each side of the eyes. The sides of the mouth should be turned upwards also

A smile that is a ‘grimace’ is not a natural smile. Or should look natural not ‘fake’. Trust your gut when you feel something off. It Probably is and you just don’t know how to explain it, because you haven’t learnt what to look for 👇🏻

There can be many reasons, but if it creeps you out, trust your instincts. It may be a ‘masked’ facial expression where 2 feelings exist & one is suppressed or it may be a ‘blended’ facial expression. Rule #1 When in doubt, go with the eyes always 👀 over the mouth.

The eyes are very hard to control & the Duchenne marker (crows feet) would have to be practiced intensely & repetitively by someone to try to ‘pass’. Even then, they cannot control their subconscious reactions & will be called out. Rule #2 study micro expressions

Look for ‘contempt’ ‘disgust’ & ‘duping delight’ or inappropriate ‘glee’. Many politicians use these towards the public 🚩bosses toward their employees, Narcissists toward their victims. If you see those micro expressions, be forewarned 🚩🚩🚩

Micro expressions are Not to rely on their own, but in combination
W/ Other body language techniques, it becomes easier & easiest to see in real time people’s odd, Unusual, deceptive body language & facial affect. Rule #3. There have been a number of great examples

on SM of the ‘sociopathic state’ & Sanpaku eyes 👀. We can learn a lot from
Past/present criminals. Often these eyes are described as ‘dead’, ‘lifeless’, ‘soulless’, ‘empty’ or ‘crazy eyes’. As society gets more chaotic, expect to see more of these & stay away from these people.

Here are some examples. Look for wide open stares, visible whites of the eyes, dilated pupils, Less blink rate, a person staring at you. As you practice more, you will get used to the speed of changing emotions on faces. Contempt, disgust, duping delight directed at YOU means 🚩

The sociopathic stare has recently gained wider public attention due to Elizabeth Holmes odd social behaviors, changes in voice, wide eyes, blink rate, stares & inability to speak properly 🗣 when she doesn’t have a ‘script’. Notice the eyes don’t match the smile.

Always go with the eyes 👀 over the mouth for the subconscious truth beneath the face. Well, that’s my very brief introductory/intermediate thread about some behaviors to watch out for. Caveat: before the trolls roast me, yes there can be multiple reasons for blended or masked

Facial expressions, but my thread is specific to dangerous people. I may do a course about this in the future for those interested. Thank you & feel free to send me examples that you find 🕵️‍♀️🤔Good luck sleuths
