Men voted Parallel-Legs as their number one favourite
position in women who are seated
One leg presses against the other and gives the legs a healthier,
more youthful look, which appeals to men from a reproductive
standpoint. This is the position taught to women in deport-
ment and modelling classes. This position should not be
confused with the woman who constantly crosses and
uncrosses her legs when she's with a man she fancies - this is
done to draw attention to her legs.
Put Your Right Foot In, Put Your Right Foot Out
When we're interested in either a conversation or a person, we
put one foot forward to shorten the distance between us and
that person. If we're reticent or not interested, we put our feet
back, usually under a chair if seated.
