What do YOU see first? Optical illusion reveals if you communicate well or bottle up emotions

A new optical illusion has claimed what you see first will reveal whether you communicate well with others or bottle up your emotions.

The image invites viewers to look quickly and note if they saw a man’s or woman’s legs first.

Seeing one image will indicate that you prefer to communicate with others directly, without sidestepping difficult conversations.

The other reveals that you prefer to think through a problem before confronting it, giving you time to sort through your feelings.

If you spotted the man’s legs, it means your personality is geared toward facing life and your problems head-on.

For you, communication is critical to having fulfilling and healthy relationships and you are more easily adept at sharing your feelings with others.

When you’re faced with a problem or are upset by someone’s actions, it’s easier to directly communicate what has upset you and why.

Your tackle your problems pragmatically, are confident, independent and are not afraid to share your opinions.

However, this direct and firm approach could leave a sour taste in other people’s mouths as not everyone will be receptive to your straightforward efforts to communicate.

But if you saw a woman’s legs first, you are more inclined to think through your feelings before speaking with others.

Sometimes you need time to figure out exactly how you feel and will map out how  to respond to make sure you don’t make contradictory comments.

It also reveals that you take a more sensitive approach to communication by making sure that what you want to convey is coming across correctly.

This means you’re also a good listener and have a sense of patience and understanding that people appreciate. 

Others are drawn to the emotional connection you present and your ability to help them navigate uncomfortable social situations.

They recognize that you will provide the type of response that will make them feel understood and appreciated.

These types of optical illusions use visual trickery to reveal people’s personality traits or desires by analyzing how they perceive ambiguous images.

The type of illusion, as shown here, is called a figure-ground illusion that forces our minds to switch from one image to another, meaning you may have noticed the man’s legs first and the woman’s only a second later.
