Reading about deceiving confused me, because I didn't know it had to do anything with ways of communication
It bothered me that it's true that we have to adjust to people's culture and how they communicate because we have to put more effort into hearing and listening to them.
I found it surprising that when they talk about how men tend to lean in more and women make more eye contact. As I was thinking about it, I make eye contact with someone rather than lean in, and its true. I asked my brothers if they tend to lean in more than eye contact and they said yes.
