question about women posing for pictures

[Caliga]

So a new guy started this week and put a picture of his wife on his desk.  I glanced at it and noticed her head was tilted to the right about 45 degrees or so.  So I got to thinking about this and realized this seems to be a very common way for women to pose for photographs now.  I opened my facebook account and, sure enough, at least half of the women I'm friended with who have a headshot as their profile pic have posed in the exact same way.

Has it always been this way?  Is this just an American thing?  I don't notice men ever posing this way.  Are they all trying to copy some actress who is famous for this pose or something?

That's because one side of a woman's brain (the shoe shopping part) is substantially better developed and heavier. This is exacerbated by the hot air filling the other side of the brain.

Its a hot angle. Men are recommended to look at a jaunty angle to appear less ugly too.

Its a hot angle.

But why?

[Syt]

Showing neck as a sign of submission. "Bite me."

Dunno.
Makes lack of symetary less obvious?

Anyway, do chicks do this in all countries?  I was really curious about that part of my question too.

Sign of insecurity, me thinks.

You know when women don't seem to do it?  When they're posing with a guy (typically their husband) in the shot, unless their head is tilted toward his.  Again, these are Facebook observations.  It must be some sort of "please fuck me" signal.

It goes back to basic mating biology.  The further the head is tilted, the more desperate the woman is to enter a fecund stage and begin the basic sexual rituals.  If you see a woman whose head is touching her shoulder, then she is in a rut, and if her head is upright then she is gravid - basic biology there, Cal, I'm surprised you didn't know.

So if I see a woman walking around looking like she has a kink in her neck, should I just do her a service and bend her over right then and there?
