People carry a notion that facial expression is a woman's thing. A guy without expression is termed as stern, manly, good personality and whatnot; whereas if a woman doesn't dance her eyebrows, wiggle her cheeks and curve her lips, is consider expressionless, full of attitude, rude etc.
"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy"
There's expression in eyes, in looks, in voice, in body language.
Subtlety is like common sense, you won't know if you don't have it.
A poker face tells you a thousand things if you know how to read..
People tend to think expression as weakness. I had been known as the one who can give 60 expressions in 60 seconds, for half of my life.
Don't get me wrong, the expression that I used to give might or might not be what actually was going on in my mind; but nonetheless I used to!
In recent times, I have learnt that people misuse your expressions.. For most part I don't care, but I love to irritate people, who try to figure me out for no reason. And I have come to realize it, that people do get irritated if they can't read your face.
It took a looo..ooott of work, to reach that point where I can hear a flabbergasting news and give little or no expression at all, leaving people wondering about, what's wrong with me!
The work is still in progress......
The satisfaction of keeping a poker face when everyone wants you to react is worth the hard work......
....or so it has been till now.....
..no wonder there is a "poke" in "poker"..
