No. He proves that if someone likes Kit Harington's smile, then it is nice for that individual to see him smile.
There was an episode of Friends when Chandler couldn't smile and his attempted smile was basically a gurn. I'm sure Matthew Perry can smile.. actually I know he can, partly because Chandler actually could smile in every episode other than the one he couldn't smile. Seriously though there are people like Chandler in that one episode. I suspect autism may have something to do with it.. in my experiences as an individual with aspergers I have learned that I cannot force a smile. It was one of many reasons I was deemed unworthy by managers in a customer service role.. forcing myself to smile hurts, because it feels weird and fake..
I do enjoy smiling.. when it's genuine though. I think that's the way smiles should be, genuine. For me the only thing that makes a real smile is if something amuses me, or if someone or something makes me happy like I see a dope 1980s Vauxhall Cavalier or some ting I smile like "Ohhh yeah boi that shit is dope!" or someone tells me I'm good at something I sorta' bashfully smile and actually in that scenario I don't like smiling. I don't like smiling due to compliments because it shows the other person I'm proud.. and that I need their validation or whatever the more appropriate word I can't currently remember is.. I try not to but I can't stop it, in those situations. Anyway that's the only time I can have a genuine smile. When posing for a photo I listen to everything everyone says and watch everyone listening and looking at something funny to amuse me enough to smile for the photo.
So I dunno' I don't think guys should smile more. Smiling is superficial when you think of it, and only genuine if it's a genuine reaction rather than a forced act to conform to social expectations.
He does have a lovely smile though. He has great hair too.
I tend to smile all the time and have one of those resting happy faces where people are always asking me why I'm always so cheerful and I'm like, "I don't think I'm cheerful, or am I?"
I don't know if it's so good though. It does get lots of people talking to me as a plus side, but sometimes when I'm not so in the mood. Also I tend to laugh a lot, mostly at my own jokes (I think I'm really funny, even if most other people think I'm corny).
I also tend to be one of those super duper happy drunkards and I like to dance and sing and laugh harder than anyone in the room, though I like to think I do it in a masculine sort of way, like so:
I don't really know. I read a psychology article once that said that men are more attractive to women, when they have a serious expression, since it shows a more dominant body language language. But women are more attractive to men when they smile, since that shows a more submissive body language. But I guess it really depends on the individual.
1. I remember seeing a study that found women rated the faces of men who didn't smile as more sexually attractive than the ones who did. Maybe smiling guys are perceived as more friendly, but being sexy>friendly.
2. Smiles that are forced don't look as good.
3. Not everyone looks good smiling. Kit is better looking than most guys so just because he looks good smiling in no way implies that the average guy would benefit from smiling more.
I mean, Kit looks extremely broody when not smiling, so he kind of has to smile a lot to not come off as a complete bore. For a lot of other guys it adds some masculinity to not smile too often, and that's not my words, I've looked at a comprehensive study done on the matter.
Sorry to tear this apart, but... 1. Not everybody smiles like Kit Harrington. 2. Guys' expressions and behavior are perceived VERY differently depending on how a girl feels about them (because 9 times out of 10, she's already decided). 3. This is the same advice they used to give GIRLS when they were growing up, and it was bad for them because... 4. ... Smiling when you're not happy is repressive and dishonest.
I totally agree that men who smile more, they seem more approachable and friendly. Yet I think some men look sexy by being serious, maybe more than when they smile. 🤷🏻♀️
Nobody should smile more unless they feel like it. I already hate that bullshit thing with women. Get over your insecurities. People who are serious aren't secretly plotting to murder you. Fake smiles are creepy.
I personally have nothing against smiling. I don't smile often because it wouldn't be as genuine if I did. It's like a treasure. No reason to show it off all the time.
It doesn't prove much. Some people in the world don't smile much, regardless of gender. I will only smile if something is really funny. Besides, I look like a total idiot when I smile.
I get you are trying to be snide, but guys do smile and have no issue with people telling them to smile more. We don't become whiny bitches because people think smiling is a good thing.
Regardless, everyone should smile more, a smile does so many things for us. Not to mention OTHERS as well as ourselves. It is just an all around good thing.
