I see aggressive men not as good leaders but as inherently insecure and probably insufficient and compensating. When I see men who express authentic humility, I am much more apt to see a man who is more evolved and internally strong. He is the one I want to work with, be with, support and promote.

Male dancer here , primarily in ballet. I found myself standing in 3rd postion all the time. I find it to be a humble position as if I don't need to prove anything but I still want to keep my spine straight with a demi plie ready. I see most male managers and authority figures like police usually take the wide "boss" stance. To be honest, the stance reeks of insecurity.

It's weird because, my first language is American Sign language so it is a lot of animation and facial expressions that I make! As an artist I do sign to some songs in American Sign language however, the Deaf community doesn't really go for that that much! I am a CODA meaning a Child of Deaf Adults! I know I probably could put my signing to dance! 🤟✌️ Both my parents were born profoundly Deaf!

It is amazing to read the comments and see that so many people don't 'believe' the presenter's ideas. Guess what? There is plenty of research that supports the notion that body language can be taught as and construed as gendered. It won't hurt any of you to learn more rather than simply disagree without having thought the information through. Remember that our own personal experience is not sufficient.

That's not really the issue its more that her notion that body language and gender are inherently linked. They're not, it's just typical to teach boys a certain way of acting and girls another. There's nothing inherently masculine or feminine about body language its more of a personal perception. I would completely refute her claims of certain dances being masculine or feminine it's just her notions of how body language is received. Most professional dancers choreograph in a gender neutral space and use movement to enhance the body language in accordance to how a male/female character should be seen, whether meek or strong, etc, in accordance to the audiences perspective not that whole genres are masculine or feminine. I would recommend having a look at Ohad Naharin he has a very insightful approach to gender-less/gendered movement or looking at how characters present themselves in Maguy Marin's May B

I've kind of realized that when my teacher ignored my answers in the class and praised a boy's cleverness for the exact same thing he'd said. But it's fine. I know I've got the right answer and I credited myself inwardly. Sometimes it's no use trying to change other people. What we should do is to recognize our own forces and shortcomings and stop caring about others' attitude upon us. Chances are, the world or others won't change for us. Life is not a Hollywood movie.

For those of you who are interested in more about gender, I highly recommend "Psychology of Gender", 4th edition 2011 Vicki S. Helgeson. There cannot be enough said about stereotypes in general and what they cause. However, I would be concerned of a generation that blurs gender completely rather than allowing true liberation.

I think she has some points but some important ones are also missing. I dont beleive that postures and atitudes are merely a social construct. I beleive that a big part of the social construct has its source on real archetypes and organic diferences. Even if only 60% of women have a very feminin body (with small feet/ big hips/smaller shoulders/body size and headsize) than average man- and only 60% of man have tipical male bodys, just the simple fact of having bigger hands/feet/smaller hips already shows the same basic cliche gesture she spoke about being tipically masculin, where the activity goes towards the external, extroverted/ or in the case of feminin where activity goes direction heart and hips and where halds seem to be more of a perception organ than a organ of changing the Outside world. Your Biografy and posture can certainly influence and sometimes even can change and mold you to a certain extent. But if you are abd inhereted naturallty a tipically female body, your natural behavior will seem to be Classical feminin behaviour. We schould not expect this from everyone and its terrible that nonmasculin man and masculin woman are seen as beeings that arent interesting or as valiable as those who fullfill the clichê or those who desperatly try to fake it! (This schould change!!!) But the rest will tale very long if its even ever changeable or desirable to change. Human kind is full of odd variations. The rule the tipical is the fascinating exception! The more you are trying to force this beleive unto people the more old people will laught about left wing thinkers. The problem for men is not only the expectation of women. If you are a peacefull sensitiv not agressiv man, some man will simply use and abuse, kriticise and even beat you up, because you are a provocation and reason for them to feel unconfortable/ stronger/ jealows. So you get used to in school and live that as a man you are bot worthy of protection (others can beat you- you arent as fragile as a woman - you dokt have the right to make out of you a victim, people will treat you even worse.

I don't believe that body language stereotypes necessarily influence hiring practices, and I don't think that some of the stereotypes presented are viewed as negative or positive by all people or organizations. For example, the guy who was sitting forward was not necessarily positive to me. You mentioned it could have represented a male who had not learned to pay attention, or a male who was disguising his nervousness by sitting that way. Disguising anxiety is normal and not necessarily a bad thing. But the male did not appear to me to be all that thoughtful or a candidate for leadership at that particular moment. I tend to agree with roxana, Patrick, and the lady who referenced the book on gender studies. Howver, I do agree that we need to get away from gender bias in hiring practices and when gauging potential for success. I do believe that the way we behave is based partially on genetics and partially on how we were brought up. There are a other of good people. And all of them should be valued.

Amy Cuddy also comments on this body language male female bio effects and bias in interviews issue. I feel inspired yet your mention of teachers gets me down. Many of them, disproportionately are women.. they need a licence to teach (like a doctor) and yet they are most overworked and underpaid. A lot of them take on a lot and yet are under supported. It seeps in this bias irrespective of consciousness. My thought on your video is to find a new way of moving around through space to ignite a different dialogue between men and women, women and women, men and men. We feel different when we move. It is like medicine without drugs. No?

body language is the ultimate form of communication in almost all species on earth. the differences from males to females are an essential part of the communication process. To label these diffs as "stereotypes" of a negative nature I think is wrong. The thought of teaching children to ignore what is natural, or worse "train" them to perform in some preconceived manner to "balance or reduce" the so-called gender gap is seemingly damaging to me. I would prefer to see parents teach human "values" in kindness, compassion & mutual understanding/acceptance - letting the child develop it's own/individual manner of expression based on these values. There will always be differences, and yes, some may seem unfair at times. But that too is perception of what "should" be in the mind of one person to another. These differences are healthy in my opinion, and exposure to both sides builds character. Great presentation, but not every situation/experience is meant to be a Dance.

OMG... silly TEDx being in favor of these things. Also that she complained about how our bodies are build up too. We have balls and a shaft, while they have the deep sea crevice. Or the muscle structure is different. Maybe some of our bones too? So we will sit differently, act differently and so on. But then again people are more different to other people though. These girls with such work sits like this, while the more business/"finess" girls will sit like that. People are different and have different issues. Blaming it on society isn't the best thing you can do. Sure there is many things to be annoyed by, when living in a city or with others that live or act differently.

I don't think gender expression is 100% society based. I know transgender people that were born male but transitioned into female that have had extremely feminine body language for their entire life, even when they were a boy. They didn't just learn it to "blend in" as a female. Why would someone that grew up as a boy and had boy expectations from society still retain female body language their whole life?

External reaction's (body language), are caused by internal action's (feeling's), and each gender has specific hormone ratio's which lead to differentiated body language from an emotional expression of that difference , this external reaction over time (thousands of years or more) then get's biologically adapted or expected from each gender from an individual and cultural standpoint. Every culture in the world has somewhat similar body language and opinion in regard's to gender's, because gender determine's genetically what typical body language a person has and in turn how that person will generally act, which get's carried into what is called cultural norm's. I respect this lady's opinion, and she has recognized a interesting phenomenon however she has prescribed an unproven and non scientifically sound conclusion to it. Simply put she observed an event without figuring out it's intended or actual purpose.

Natalia, well done presentation, but I disagree with your premise. The differences between men and women don't need to be "trained out" of society to equalize a power imbalance. Individuals each have unique talents and, if they can master being themselves and learn to exploit their personal "talent package" to its maximum potential, their results will far their exceed their wildest expectations. Gender traits exist, although on a bell curve as opposed to binary opposites. Each person must to play to their personal strengths and never deny their own nature to play the game using rules set by others. You and your talk, incidently, are living proof of my premise. Even on the small screen of my phone, your ability to capture an audience in moments with your natural talent for dance was palpable.

Her entire point was to acknowledge the fact that through people's subconscious attachments to the expectation of how to act makes them less of an individual and in turn is raising awareness to possibly promote people to step outside of the norms of social expectations to act more creatively and uniquely instead of doing what is expected to set an example. I don't see how you claim that she isn't pointing that out.

The real thing is that if you settle a kind of "blue or pink frame" for How and Where you think that skills must be devoloped, then those people must be superheroes if they want to grow up to other direction. But society doesn't work for the most talented people, as she is, and you pointed. Changes must come for the rest of us, the ordinary prople, those who'll never host a speech at Yale, but who had great skills to develope with -that's the point- some off-gender management.

"Men and women act differently, it's largely because cultural construct and not genetics" says a dancer with no scientific backing and credibility to her claim. Ignoring the hold debate about nature Vs nurture.

To all of those trying to defend the way we´re sitting... no it´s not because it may be painful. We sit like that because we like feeling strong and dominant. We sit like that because we like feeling confident and self assured. And you know what? That is okay. And why wouldn´t it? We are men and we should stay that way, instead of becoming women with testicles

"What I'm actually doing is deciding what gender I want the audience to see me as." Ummm what? Maybe I'm just ignorant to the subject, but that is just not true in my case. I never think about gender when I dance.

jademarissa me as well, but I think what she means to say is that she's expressing the particular personality that is associated with the specific genders, and that's one of the reasons more guys so hip hop than ballet, and more girls like lyrical and ballet

This chick is way into mind control. I believe at the least, half of what she blames on culture is in fact animal behavior. She uses Jane Goodall then fails to see our primate behavior. Didn't she say something early on in the presentation about behaviors that were common across cultures?

Nice observations. However, your conclusions are not backed up by anything. What proved so far that those behaviors are social construct? You might need to look into evolutionary biology. You can see different behaviors for different genders in Primates. Is it also social construct? :D

Uh...wrong! My daughters acted very feminine for as long as I remember. I never told them how to act, and there were men around them, they decided to be mushy, want to go to the dresses at the store on their own and pick pink princess outfits ignoring the boys section on their own. I even got them legos so they wouldn't be limited by stereotypes and my daughter made teddy bears, babies and figures of mom and dad holding hands and snuggled her lego block creations. She twists and turns very feminine and talks talks talks even before she knew words. I remember feeling intense craves towards warfare and construction toys, motorcycles and trucks and my sisters Barbie doll games seemed like the most boring activity imaginable, wrestling was all day and I just wanted to die evertime my sister played the Pointer Sisters. Gross was the cool and pretty was gross. This is NOT moulding to gender expectations, but instinctual. Women and men in their natural states are wired directly opposite and thus attraction!

I'd just like to point out that there would be no evolutionary advantage to playing with Barbie dolls if you were a girl, or for boys to want to play with motorcycles. There's factual evidence to back up that even if you didn't tell your daughters, "Alright, girls, let's conform to social stereotypes today," they still would have probably picked up on it. 'Instinctual' suggests something reflexive or natural, like a fight or flight response. Women are certainly not told to like the color pink by their limbic system. Also, what do you mean by 'in their natural states'? In conclusion, no, Natalia is not wrong. She presented data and facts, as well as her own personal opinions and views, to form a detailed and viable point about gender stereotypes. I respect your opinion, but Ms. Khosla's is not wrong.
