Dominant Body Language

People organize their position and gestures automatically to show they understand and agree on who is dominant, higher status, superior, or the boss, and who are the underlings.

Whenever a joke, controversial remark, or personal opinion is made in the group, the group's eyes will glance toward the dominant person to see any reaction.

When friends are in a group and no one wants to take the dominant role, all treat each other as if each was the dominant person.

When a person displays domineering body language he or she is using an indirect form of aggression in which no weapon is used or any show of weapons-to-be-used is made. But they are indicating to everyone there that they are a threat and should not be challenged.

Dominance displays aim at disarming and discouraging opponents before the opponent can get the upper hand.

Dominant body language is subtly hostile and is intended to place the opponent into a no-win position where they must make one of these choices:

  1. They could withdraw and leave but would thereby acknowledge the superiority of the displaying aggressor.
  2. They could counter-display (that is escalation for a possible fight) or attack directly, but that would possibly result in injury and further loss of status.
  3. They could acknowledge the superiority of the other and submit to be the underling. Submission is shown largely by body language. This is the most common choice for people living in modern societies and it is very evident in body language of most people.

Being the underling is not all bad and is in fact what one must do usually when working for someone else. Dominance is often subtly displayed as a test by some people. Usually it is ignored because it is not necessary when everyone knows their hierarchical level and acts appropriately within the group.

The body language cues the dominant person uses are these:

  • Directs and controls the conversation.
  • Freely asks questions and expects a response back but gives little or no self-disclosure.
  • Stands with hands on hips, elbows out to sides. Takes up more personal space that way and wants to look bigger.
  • Stands or sits taller than others on purpose.
  • Freely interrupts others speaking. (Others don't interrupt.)
  • Long pause when answering a door knock, or replying to someone. Makes others wait.
  • Freely touches others. (Others don't touch back.)
  • Will stare at others and demand attention. (Others don't do the same back.)
  • Never breaks eye contact first. Others usually break eye contact first by looking down, signifying submission.
  • Occupies a bigger personal space and crowds others on purpose.
  • Takes the lead purposefully when walking and going through doors.
  • While sitting, will put hands behind head, put feet on desk, remove eye glasses and put ear-piece in mouth, or turn chair away from others and stare out window.
  • If not well socialized, will eat and talk at same time while others can't eat.
  • Touching someone but not allowing yourself to be touched is a sign of dominance
