And, you know, some people do that for some reason.

Maybe they're just like nervous in the air and then the plane lands and they're like, oh, thank God we landed.

Okay.

But that could evolutionarily signal that they do something embarrassing and that maybe that could mean that you're not accepted by a larger social group and you could be perhaps an outcast.

in some social situations and that could be like the ick it's like maybe this person doesn't have great social skills and they do something that's non-standard or embarrassing and it just makes you feel icky about that right so those were some examples from the article that i thought were really interesting that this could be really really deep-rooted and evolutionary and that's an uphill battle to fight i think against those deep instincts that we have

That is interesting.

So it's like your own insecurities are showing up.

And because of that, you're pushing someone away.

Well, interestingly enough, speaking of seeing...

I read that research says that only 6% of the time, ick triggers.

And this is a great word to know, guys.

Trigger.

Something that triggers you, makes you feel a certain way.

So a trigger of an ick.

Only 6% of the time is related to physical appearance.

So I thought that was pretty shocking because when you hear this phrase,

The ick, I think like, of course, it's going to be related to the way people look, but it's not really related to the way people look.

Most of the time, instead, it's behavior or personality.

So actions that people are doing or characteristics that people have, that is the turnoff.

It's not really like a visual thing or a physical appearance thing at all.
