Nonverbal Communication Analysis # 2357:
Why is this Image so Sexy?
Body Language of "Hide & Seek"






















In this posed picture a beautiful woman is looking at "us" through the mane of a horse sculpture. Most people will find this to be a particularly sexy image. And while she is certainly attractive to begin with, several nonverbals increase her appeal. In particular, this partial view of her face somewhat emulates the peek-a-boo games we all played as children. This same behavior is ubiquitously carried over into teenage years and adulthood and is a routine component in the process of flirtation and romance. A slight shift in positioning by either party will "cover" her eyes - only to be "uncovered" once more with another small adjustment. A similar effect is also achieved with the brim of a hat, via hair hanging down in front of one or both eyes, etc.

During such flirtations, care should be taken not to look too long, where it becomes a stare. As long as eye contact is made and held for a second or two, then is broken and re-established for another brief moment the message usually gets through. During the second eye contact it is also very helpful to display a smile - either sincere one or a good "social smile". 

Additional mysteriousness and thus allure is added in this photo because a good share of this beauty's face is covered by sculpture or by shadow. It is natural to want to know what we cannot see. This spurs our curiosity and her attractiveness.

Nonverbal Communication Secret # 1805:
The Most Beautiful Woman in the World
What Makes Her Even More Alluring?
Aishwarya Rai



















Aishwarya Rai is considered by many to be the most beautiful woman on the planet. A former Miss India and Miss World (1994), she uses two commonly seen flirtatious signals in this posed photograph to dial-up her sex appeal.

When the armpits are exposed, it sends signals of confidence and comfort, but it also releases pheromones or pheromone-like substances. These chemical messagers stimulate the olfactory (sense of smell) systems of potential lovers - some more than others. This pose has the additional effect of putting the breasts dominantly on display. It's also a body language which signals over-all health and wellbeing. When a woman adopts the armpit exposed configuration, she is physically attracted to someone in the immediate area.

Aishwarya's hand/finger is also discretely pointing to her right eye. This subtle directing of another's gaze to one's own eye is a high-yield flirting tactic. Ms. Rai - or anyone else who displays this nonverbal - wants you to look (not stare) into her eyes. To increase the flirtation further she may hold your gaze for a second or two then, then look down, and look back up again, re-establishing eye contact along with a subtle smile. Slow preening of her hair (back or side of her head) while keeping her elbow out and armpit exposed, further would further amplify this effect.
