Do you wear smile mask in daily life? A leading psychiatrist at Osaka University alleges that perma-smiles can damage your health seriously. In modern time, almost every service business requires their female staff to smile gently all the time. Their smile is what we call perma-smiles. That psychiatrist has also found out that those women staff can't turn off their perma-smiles off. This is the problem.

According to the psychiartrist, smile mask suppresses your real emotions and causes psychological effects. More seriously, it might lead depression and other physical ailments.

What should we do, never smile again?

Does she force herself to smile?

Heh, when taking wedding photos, the assistant continously said sir, big smile. I said I am a Finn, I don“t smile, but that did not help. No click before I got something looking like a smile on my face.

I think I will sue them causing a damage in my brain. In fact, I have fattened lately, maybe I will put that on list too.

I think what he is talking about is if you are forcing a smile.

Smiling from the heart makes you and others around you so I don't see anything wrong with it. But then, I am no scientist.

and others around you happy.

I missed the word 'happy' there. Seriously, when is TCG (the one and only internet forum I know without edit function) going to have an edit function?

Smiling is good for your health! ...but I'd concede that wearing a phoney smile can have ill effects.

Well, they have no other ways excepting forcing themselves to smile. As a customer, how will you feel when seeing a salesgirl wi a face as long as a fiddle?
