Well, for me, it explains things like:
- Why candlelight dinners are so popular (low light= larger pupils)
- And why popular cartoons often have large pupils (think anime)
- And why advertisers photoshop pictures including the models pupils
- And it also blows my mind at how we process so much information unconsciously, which has me both terrified and in awe at the same time!
Keep your eyes peeled for this subtle body language cue in advertising and in real life. And do me a favor and send me any pictures and examples you come across that demonstrate this nonverbal cue. I’d love to find more ways we see this in our world.
