Smiling
Ylikoski Maria
A woman is trying to smile. It is said that one can recognize the real smile from the wrinkles around the eyes. The scientists claim that the microexpressions can tell us whether a person is lying or not. However, in order to be desirable, to manage in social situations and to give a positive impression, women have to smile.
