Interesting Test of Recognising Facial Expressions

^You have to enter your name and email to get the results, unfortunately. I'm not sure why, but I didn't think I should give them my info.

I got 13, but some didn't seem to correlate to any of the emotions for me and the longer I looked at the ones I instinctively got the less sure I was.

If there had been a 'Holding in a fart' option I'd have chosen that for most of them.

Got 10/20.
I get shame and embarrassment confused, same with pain and disgust.

Also the “Love” picture confuses me, how can she express love? Is her partner behind the camera work? Because otherwise I can’t understand.

The happy faces felt polite to me. Maybe that says more about me, because in general terms, when people are nice to me, I just think they’re just trying to be polite…

Yes don't do that if you don't want to. They aren't entitled to your name and email.

Same here! I can't tell if people are actually being nice to me or just being polite to humour me!

I can't tell if people are being nice or patronising to me either

Especially the guy screwing up his face theatrically!

They just showed my score at the bottom of the last page. Didnt give them anything.

It had never occurred to me before this test that one could make a 'polite' face. I can understand saying something polite but how do you make a polite face? Is a neutral face impolite?

I have no idea how to make the polite face Many times people just tell me what face I'm making and it's not what I'm feeling inside at all. I often get told I look sneaky when I'm just really confused or thinking about how to do something.

An interesting etymological fact, thanks!
