What's up with eyebrow raising?

[MissH]

Lately a lot of guys are doing this facial expression, what do they mean by it? I never have the feeling where I want to raise my eyebrows...

Apparently when someone likes you (male or female) they will unconsciously raise their eyebrows for about one fifth of a second when they first see you. It's easier to notice than the pupil dilation thing, and when you start to catch people doing this, that's when it is interesting! :) Granted, I've started to notice myself doing it to others as well.

where did you learn that from?

You can find other sources online, but here's one: link

Go to "non-verbal behaviors in flirting" > "movements of face & head".

It means that dreamworks has finally started animating real life.

they say that most people in general do this as a sign of recognition... but for me that's like "sign of attraction" like "damn, she is sexy!" etc

[TurbulentDan12]

Could mean they're confused. Could mean they're intrigued. Or they may just be wanting to imitate The Rock. I blame The Rock

[colt1819]

Glad some ladies can appreciate a little humor. lol

[kinkynconfused]

Its one of my tics. I do it whenever I am interested/confused. Its usually a sign that something just got 100% of my attention

first off john belushi created the eye brow raise, may he rest in peace. watch the movie animal house, you'll understand the meaning then

[Reverie]

I do it (involuntarily heh) when I'm either surprised or intrigued.

[kennyk]

I do it as a sort of a greeting, like a head nod but more subtle.

Ha! good question! I had a guy raise and lower his eyebrows at my like 3 times in a row and fast. What does that mean? The conversation was about food.

[Rashad]

It means he wants you for dinner

Fantastic reply.

[Opinion Owner]

Ha! That is a fantastic repy! But seriously, it's really strange to raise eyebrows over food!

[Anonymous]

It's my WTF response. I've done it my whole life its kind of hard to just stop.

[rachiee]

They're just trying to be like the Rock.

[WeaponZero]

IF YA SMELLLLLLL

...You get the idea

[sweet_18]

I think it's just sort of a flirty gesture

[Anonymous]

sometimes it can be just flirty.

[Ezmotts]

That's how I give recognition to someone.

eyebrow raising shows interest

[TaffyTongue123]

Eyebrows raise mean suspicion.
