Wait...
How the hell would she know how to make a sarcastic face if she herself told Kara that, on the basis of beauty, she couldn't tell her if she was pretty specifically because she COULDN'T see faces?

I don't think the need to be taught how to make a sarcastic face. Though it's not exactly an emotion, you don't have to be taught how to look sad or angry. You just do it. Probably something along those lines.

I'd argue that facial expressions are learned from watching others as a lil kid. Same as speech and body language. sub conciously learned and imitated

But blind people still smile and **** . Its instinctual

Others argue that it's not learned. Everyone smiles when they're happy frowns when they're sad and a ton of other expressions no matter what culture or what era you're in it's always been the same. If you find an isolated group of people who've never interacted with any other people besides themselves they still show the same emotions the same way. Even babies. Never smile at a baby but it will learn to smile and learn to laugh. It's implanted into our brains because they're essentially different sorts of instincts. You find something funny you don't laugh on purpose, it's an instinct.

It's evolution cutting corners. It would take extra precious time to teach someone how to do every emotion, so everything just knows it by instinct.

Blind babies still smile. Deaf babies still cry.
Facial expressions aren't learned. It's part of the reason face reading is a talent that's useful in every culture: facial expressions are universal.
People don't learn actual facial expression. If it's learned, it's an act.

I had to make myself relearn facial expressions. After years of basic isolation at a young age I forgot the fundamentals of expression. btw it was video games and being bullied

I think that is more of a deterrent. You went out of your way (not purposely) to become expressionless. Your body... "un-learned" its natural actions. Similar to how people who don't talk for long periods of time can develop speech impediments. Granted talking isn't a completely natural trait, it does seem so after doing so, for so long.

In a similar manner, wild animals can lose a lot of their natural instincts when they are tamed, but when released back into the wild, they can redevelop them. Even house cats that were sheltered their whole lives can turn feral if given enough time.

This is just a personal theory.

You can be as respectful as you want about your disagreement, but it's still wrong. Its currently accepted that voluntary face expressions are leant from mimic.

I mean, you could also respectfully disagree with evolution, it's a pretty similar situation, although the evolution theory has a higher degree of confirmation.

I work in a grocery store geared towards serving those with special needs. I deal with blind people all the time, from both recently blinded, to from birth. All of them show facial expressions as well as any other. A look of concern with a furrowed brow, to even rolling their eyes. As the anon from below said, it's a natural instinct, and not something that has to be learned.

I don't know where you're getting info from that says it's "currently accepted" that it works that way.

voluntary face expression is not the same as involuntary face expression

They'd probably be able to learn how to voluntarily make those expressions by mimicking the way they feel their facial muscles move when they make them involuntarily.
At least, that's make sense.

No you're talking about involuntary. basicargentinian is saying that blind-from-birth people can't preform voluntary facial expressions and Bion is saying that his/her first-hand experience proves to him that blind-from-birth people can still preform these actions even though they never see them.

IMO so long as blind people are described what the facial expression looks like and maybe feel the face of the person preforming it I think that they can do voluntary facial expressions.

My friend has been blind her entire life, and I can guarantee her facial expression look no different than anybody elses. Also, I'm not sure if anybody close to you has ever had a kid, but they also have a wide range of expressions. It's natural, even babies smile, or look angry, or look like they're constantly constipated. ****** natural

It's a kids show. A character with a lack of facial expressions would be disturbing.
Plus, in the show she can 'see' through vibrations - I'm assuming she's 'seen' a few facial expressions

there are actually people irl that can see using ground vibrations, in fact i rely on it a bit as well so nothing can surprise me, everything gives off vibrations thru the ground and air, you just have to adjust with training to feel them and where they come from.

There have been many recorded instances of blind people raising their arms in a victory-type position whenever they win at something really challenging. Nobody's ever taught them to do it, it's ingrained deep in our subconsciousness' as a species.

To be fair, she's daredevil blind, so she can technically see. But blind people know how to smile and **** either way, so it's likely instinctual/not learned by sight

There's a really good show called Lie to me, based on a real scientist's experiences. Mind you, it is a show, the facts are still solid. Anyways, some facts from the author that show is based on:

People, regardless of where they live, where they're from, etc. show similar microexpressions regardless of whether they can see, hear, etc. or not. People who are happy, generally have an elated face. People who are depressed also show the same facial expressions regardless of where they originate. Happy, Depression, Sarcastic, Angry, Frustrated, Disgusted, etc. are all ingrained in us. Not only in our face, but also in our body.

This is, obviously, a very very simplistic understanding of it, but either his book or the tv show are great.

www.paulekman.com/ Paul Ekman is who teh stories based on, and he's one of a few dozen leading experts in the field, if you're interested in learning more about it.

**zeroqp used "*roll picture*"**
**zeroqp rolled image**Reminds me of another reason why America is ****** up because of finances. Because of corporate greed, customers are expected to pay the majority of waiters' salaries through tips, and if they don't do it, it somehow makes the customer greedy and selfish. First of all, why is it acceptable to be paid less than $2.5 in the first place by an employer? Why doesn't anyone focus on that? Second, why not just tip if you're especially happy? Or hell, show them how satisfied you are as a customer by going there when you feel like going out to eat (give them your loyalty). And if we're expected to give tips to waiters, why not do it in fast food restaurants? Those people have more uncomfortable and more stressful jobs. Why is it only socially demanded that you do it with waiters?

When i visited america, i only tipped when i was happy with how the wait staff treated me. For the most part i was treated quite well, so i tipped accordingly.
