How often have you heard the saying “men are animals”? Well in essence there is a lot of truth in the saying. And for good reason. The hunter instinct in the male species goes back to earliest ancestors. There is no time that it is more evident today than in the male hunt or search for a mate. Sounds primal doesn’t it?

Keeping it basic, mating is as essential to the continuation of the species today as ever. We live in a modern time when we like to think that every part of our lives has gone through a technological evolution. Still when it comes to face to face contact, non verbal communications through body language stand the test of time and tell their own story.

Men the eternal hunters, when on the prowl, will often frequent social gathering places where they will expect to find numbers of possible objects for their quest.

Next time you find yourself entering a room where a few gentlemen are engaged in casual conversation and perhaps enjoying a drink, realize they have settled in for the hunt, the hunt of the opposite sex. Sit back and observe or jump in with both feet and you can watch how the scene plays out.

This is one time the hunter will not wear camouflage. He wants to stand out and be noticed. He will pay particular attention to his appearance. After all, first impressions are important. His posture is essential to displaying his manhood and gaining your attention. Standing straight with shoulders back and chest extended with his stomach sucked in is a sure sign of a man in search of an object for his affections.

Perhaps you catch the eye of one such gentleman. He holds the gaze an extended moment and steps slightly away from the pack turning toward you. Stepping away from the group separates him from the group and puts him at center stage for your attentions.

Then watch the feet… no not so you don’t step on them. I can tell you that once those feet are headed in your direction he will not be far from putting one in front of the other to head your way. Where the feet turn – or knees if seated – the brain often follows.

You Have His Attention – Now What?

If you are quick you may see him raise an eyebrow for just a brief moment. This is good sign provided you like what you are seeing. Don’t be surprised if he places his hands on his hips. Are his hands hooked on his belt with fingers pointing to his manhood? You have his interest hook, line and sinker. If he is seated he will sit with his legs apart and turn toward you so he is faced in your direction to draw your attention.

Yes, he will look you over. Very likely do a little preening, run a hand through his hair, straighten his tie, brush off his lapel.

Should you move or lean in closer then he will most likely meet you half way. Mirroring is another form of body language that shows confirms attraction.

The clincher is touch. A hand on your shoulder or elbow and by all means the small of your back and he is staking a claim.

Experts in body language maintain that in the game of mating or courtship, women most often make the first move. Men will look for this step before taking the risk of approaching the woman. If she is not sending signals to him, he will not want to meet with likely failure and have to make a U-turn.

All in all, men are not very good at reading a women’s body language.
