Wimp is a great website. Every day there's 5 videos. They can be anything: comedy, things that make you think 'what the hell?', great ideas, and educational stuff.
Quite often there are TED talks that make their way on there.
I have to admit when I see a TED talk on there I usually close it, that's 20 mins long and I don't want to watch such a long video.
This particular one stuck me as being vaguely relevant to my future master's project, so that's why I'm sharing it here.
The woman's basically saying, standing like this:
Makes you feel like a boss, to the point it changes the hormones in your body. And that if it feels dumb, just keep doing it 'til it doesn't.
Anyway, if I can make my characters behave in this way it should have an effect on the way you perceive their personalities.
This just reminds me of back in the day, when the 40's/50's women would stand in the kitchen with there head scarfs on looking angry at the kids or husband...
