Genderspeak: Men, Women, and the Gentle Art of
Verbal Self-Defense
A woman's smile
May be interpreted as an attempt to substitute personal charm for

If she doesn't smile, she may be considered cold and impersonal.
Both men and women may unconsciously join in a game of talking
business but using body language that says, "Let's flirt."
