Attractive Male Body Language


Although many guys have terrible body language which may put women off, by simply learning a few secrets, you can instantly make a greater impression, allowing you to stand out from the crowd. It is possible for any man to become more attractive through many ways, but body language is one of the most important factors to boost your attractiveness and make a more striking first impression.

The six secrets you need to know:
1. Plant yourself when standing still.
Place your feet slightly wider apart than natural, this will stop you from shifting your weight. Notice how your feet feel planted. You will feel much more stable allowing you to stand for longer periods of time, and appear stronger. This technique is used by martial artists, as a solid base increases your balance and ability to deal with anything that comes your way.

2. Do not touch your face, fidget, or fiddle.
How do you normally hold your hands? Twitching and fidgeting makes you look nervous, which is usually unattractive to the sub-conscious mind. The best way to learn this is to go out and observe, as its easier to see it in other people. If you have trouble stopping your “nervous twitch” try keeping your hands by your sides with your thumbs placed between the index and middle fingers on each hand. This should remove, or at least reduce, the need for your fingers to constantly be doing something.

3. Whatever you do, don’t look down.
Just like when you are hanging off a cliff! Keep your head held upright. If you feel the need to look away, look up or sideways, but never look down! Looking down is a proven sign of weakness and submission, which is generally a killer in the dating game.

4.Make slow head movements.
Men of high status everywhere: on film, in business, and in your social circle all have certain traits in common. One of these is slow, smooth movements. Don't jerk and jolt your head around as though you've been drinking caffeine all day, instead look around slowly and smoothly. Smoothness and lack of fidgety movements are the main factors.

5.Walk more slowly and smoothly.
This makes you come across more high-status. A sense of quiet confidence is given off just by behaving more comfortable and smoothly. When out in a bar or club, slow it down even more and you will stand out from other people who are rushing around franticly... remember, you are important enough that people will wait for you, you don’t need to hurry...

6. Don’t hold a drink in front of your chest
Whilst holding a drink, hold it down by your side, or somewhere other then in front of your chest. In body language, this is a blocking / defensive posture that causes you to appear weak.

Start carrying out these 6 simple tips and you will instantly make a better first impression allowing you to stand out from the other men in a room. It may take a little time and adjustment to stop habits that you have been building for potentially many years, but it only takes practice catching yourself "breaking the rules."
