This study explores gender differences in nonverbal communication by analyzing the varying use of gestures, facial expressions, spatial positioning, eye contact, and other nonverbal cues among men and women. Using a mixed-methods approach, observational and survey data were collected from a diverse group of participants to evaluate these nonverbal tendencies. Findings reveal that women typically exhibit greater expressiveness, engage in longer eye contact, and demonstrate a preference for closer physical proximity, while men tend to display more reserved body language and favor wider personal space. These insights contribute to a more nuanced understanding of gendered communication styles and their potential impact on social, professional, and cultural interactions.
