Why do Japanese women always do this thing where they move their upper torso and head in a synchronic way? Every Japanese woman does it. They even do it when they're not doing anything that requires it as an exaggerated motion of the motion that they naturally do in that situation. In that context of driving a bike, it's only an exaggerated motion of a natural motion but sometimes they do it even when only listening to a person speak or when themselves speaking. Sometimes they even do it for no reason at all when silently standing at a park or such. There are many Japanese immigrants where I live and every time I sit on a bench or something and pay attention to a Japanese woman nearby for longer than ten minutes, she will do it without exception. Actually even many who were born and raised here do it. The majority women here do a somewhat similar movement but it's different, it's easy to tell which movement it is when a woman does it and if you're in any doubt about a woman being Japanese or possibly just deceptively Japanese-looking, this is a sure way to tell. The Japanese women's movement is synchronic and swaying, the majority women's movement is sequential and instant. Japanese women themselves don't know they do it, if you ask them why they do it they have no idea what you're talking about. It's as natural to them as breathing. Why do they do it? I like it but I want to know why.
Surely you've seen Japanese women make this movement, where they sway their torso to the side and tilt their head in a synchronic manner. Like I said, other women do movements like this too but the way Japanese women do it is unique because of the synchronic swaying and that it's always accompanied by a change in her facial expression even if very subtle. The exact facial expression can be anything, often it's a smile when she does it in a conversation or a smug smirk when she does something that she knows is cute, however it can even be a frown. Often it can be a thoughtful expression, and in this case the sway is even slower and the movement is very synchronic and has true weight to it. This last one, I understand the context of because it's always done when she thinks about something or is uncertain about something or doesn't know what to say. However, the other movements are less clear in purpose, and even in this case I still don't know why Japanese women always make this same movement when other women make various movements or don't make any movement at all. My grandmother often makes similar movements, they're more similar to the Japanese women's movements in her generation than my mother's or my own generation but there is always still a very clear difference. It's cute when the movement has a smile or a smug smirk accompanied, but this is clearly not the reason for its existence because they also do it in circumstances when surely they want to not be cute. This is what separates the Japanese women's movement very clearly from other women's movements, they do it all the time and it is not intentional because they don't know what you're talking about if you're talking with them and then they do it, and you ask about it in that context, they still don't know. In fact, often if you ask Japanese women why they do it, they will make the exact movement as a response to that question.
