Body Language: Brett Kavanaugh Hearing Christine Blasey Ford
Great comments below the video as well. Here's just one of them:
"I've been a bartender for 20+ years, and it's funny how I've learned the power of body language without even consciously realizing it. I watched this hearing as well, and found her overall demeanor to be that of emotional manipulation. While it's noticeable in men (usually those with aggressive tendencies), I see it primarily in women. Especially in those who are "drama queens" who have very low self-esteem, and who try to dominate the attention of the room. They always instigate the drama, and then try to garner sympathy through these sort of tactics by playing the victim after the fact... It's seriously disturbing behavior..."
Yep. Passive aggressive control freaks, using what worked for them from age 4. Good reminder to not let my daughter control her older brothers with victim mentality. (And if she gets groped, I hope she pushes him the hell sway, gets pissed at him, and after a week pretty much forgets about the shmuck. What is the point to remaining traumatized?)
