it’s not how you hold your liquor
it’s how you hold your glass. psychologist glenn wilson looked at the the body language of 500 drinkers and identified eight kinds of personalities related to the way the glass was held. they are:
- the flirt: usually a woman, who holds her glass with dainty, splayed fingers and uses it in a provocative way.
- the gossip: usually a woman who hangs in a group with friends and may be talking about other people critically. the gossip holds a wine glass by the bowl and uses it for emphasis while talking.
- the fun lover: holds the bottle loosely at its shoulder and sips or swigs a lot in order to stay in the conversation.
- the wall flower: this is a person who holds on to the glass for dear life like he/she is afraid someone will steal the glass.
- the ice queen: a woman who is unapproachable and shows that you should stay away by using the glass a s a barrier.
- the playboy: uses his glass or bottle as a phallic prop and can be touchy feely with his female companions.
- the jack-the-lad: he’s like the gossip and is cocky and territorial. he may push the glass away from himself and lean back in his chair.
- the browbeater: your typical meat head who prefers large glasses, or bottles, which he holds tightly and uses them to gesticulate in a threatening, “in the face” kind of way.
