Passing Notes: Competitive Flirting?!

We’re back with another Passing Notes episode, and we’re unpacking last week’s study on competitive flirting! What excites us about flirting? What flirty techniques are we ready to put to use in the competition arena? How does competitive flirting work in the digital world of dating apps? Maybe the eyebrow raise and sexy dance moves aren’t the most effective tactics, according to science, but that’s not stopping us. Love (flirting?) is a battlefield, so ruffle your peacock feathers and get your game-face on; we’re goin’ in! Today’s study is called, “I saw him first: Competitive nonverbal flirting among women, the tactics used and their perceived effectiveness” by T. Joel Wade, Maryanne L. Fisher and Elizabeth Clark.
