Psychology Shows 12 Things Men and Women Need to Change in Their Communication Styles in Order to Understand Each Other Better

Men and women ... we might speak the same language , but that doesn ’ t mean we understand each other .
A study found that words and phrases can have different meanings to each of us when we ’ re talking .
This is why , sometimes , we can ’ t communicate without getting into an argument , raising our voice , or throwing some pillows ( sorry , guys ) .
But if you ’ re willing to put in some mental effort , you can learn how to communicate better with each other and save yourself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the long run , with just a little psychology .
There ’ s evidence that women read more into interpersonal meaning in messages with their mates .
In other words , they tend to “ read between the lines , ” and attribute values of intimacy and closeness to their partner ’ s words .
On the other hand , men are more literal and might just expect the center of that conversation to be on a subject .
One example would be our illustration above .
If he says “ We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means that .
He doesn ’ t mean “ I ’ d rather be with my friends , you ’ re boring !
” Understanding what each other wants out of a conversation in a relationship will help bridge the differences .
This objective translation will also allow each member to feel cherished in the relationship .
More on that later ... Ah !
The common “ You just don ’ t get it ... ” Well , maybe it should be more like , “ You just don ’ t understand why.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ a way to explore feelings and feel comforted by their partners .
AKA : She ’ s not looking for a solution !
It ’ s more about the journey and conversation itself that matters for her .
On the polar opposite side ... men have a tendency to want to think of clear solutions , healthy advice , and they want to deliver it as fast as possible .
Because of this , couples can gain from just getting a better understanding of what the other is looking for .
He wants @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wants to be heard .
3 .
Women : Appreciate that he wants to comfort you .
Men : Act like you care .
Men will see a problem that needs to be solved and show care for their partner by putting their energy into solving the problem for her .
This means he will get analytical , explore different problem-solving tactics , and try to communicate them to her .
Meanwhile , she ’ s really just looking for an attentive listener .
The man could really help his relationship by asking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ better and make sure she feels like she ’ s being listened to ( perhaps via some nonverbal cues ) .
4 .
Women : Understand that men also enjoy some “ quality me-time.
” Men are often accused of being uncommunicative or withdrawn , and on the surface , this may appear true .
But women might have a lot to gain from understanding the reasons for this behavior .
If your man seems a little bit isolated , this likely means that he ’ s just taking a quick break from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the form of a marathon of video games , watching TV , or reading .
Don ’ t fret about it — just give him his space !
And make sure to make him feel like everything is going to be alright by letting him know that you trust that he is on top of things .
5 .
Women : Try to be more clear about your intentions .
Women and men are different in how they say things to one and other .
Women are a bit more indirect than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and might prefer to launch indirect allegations instead .
So it might be best for women to be more precise with their man and for him to delve a bit deeper into what exactly they are actually discussing .
For example , she might not say , “ I ’ m mad about what you said at dinner last night.
” Instead , she might opt for a sarcastic remark such as , “ Maybe you should think about being nicer during our dates.
” When this happens , you might both @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
6 .
Men : Make sure she knows you ’ re listening by giving feedback .
7 .
Women : Try seeing a task as just a task .
Men : Add some romanticism into the task itself .
Women engage themselves by building trust first through talking and then participating in tasks together , that they will accomplish because of that trust .
Men tend to dismiss this trust chat and instead rush straight into the mission of accomplishing a task .
For example : If they need to work with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it even if they don ’ t like her .
Both parties stand to gain from taking a step back and seeing the way their significant other behaves , and always acting with additional empathy .
They both may have the same objective in mind , but different ways and speeds of getting there !
8 .
Women : Understand that men often need to be doing something while they chat .
Men tend to communicate while doing , and the activity itself is central to fostering a feeling that they can open @ @ @ @ @ @ @ closer while speaking — they can go without the need for a secondary activity .
Recognizing this may help women understand when their partner seeks to do something before , or even in the middle of , an argument .
He might just be seeking out a better environment to discuss the issue , while she ’ s trying to discuss everything right now !
9 .
Men : Don ’ t hesitate to ask for help .
They may perceive that the need to ask for help is a reflection of their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for women , offering advice is perceived as a sign of caring for someone else .
To bridge this gap , it may help to be as clear as possible about your intentions , rather than to allow the other person to just assume that you ’ re seeking to help as a way of pointing out their weakness to them .
Yikes !
So , as an example , let ’ s take a look at the illustration above .
Imagine he ’ s on his computer trying to solve a problem @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ You ’ re doing it wrong , you need my help.
” Try saying instead , “ I ’ ve had that bug before , want me to check and see if I can fix it ?
” Men “ compartmentalize , ” while women see each argument as part of a greater whole .
In other words , men are perfectly fine having an argument on a particular subject , letting it go , and moving on to a second subject without much thought about the former argument lingering in their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to carry her anger over onto the next item on the list .
It may for help both to understand that this isn ’ t just her “ not letting it go ” or him “ forgetting about it.
” Instead , both members of the relationship simply understand problems and the relationships between them differently .
12 .
Women and men : Welcome your partner ’ s communication style .

Men and women... we might speak the same language, but that doesn’t mean we understand each other. A study found that words and phrases can have different meanings to each of us when we’re talking. This is why, sometimes, we can’t communicate without getting into an argument, raising our voice, or throwing some pillows (sorry, guys). But if you’re willing to put in some mental effort, you can learn how to communicate better with each other and save yourself some misunderstandings, tears, and sighs in the long run, with just a little psychology.
Bright Side is here with 12 pieces of advice to help you have a smoother relationship with your boss, your parent, or your significant other.
1. Women: Don’t read between the lines.
There’s evidence that women read more into interpersonal meaning in messages with their mates. In other words, they tend to “read between the lines,” and attribute values of intimacy and closeness to their partner’s words. On the other hand, men are more literal and might just expect the center of that conversation to be on a subject. One example would be our illustration above. If he says “We have the semifinals today!” he means that. He doesn’t mean “I’d rather be with my friends, you’re boring!” Understanding what each other wants out of a conversation in a relationship will help bridge the differences. This objective translation will also allow each member to feel cherished in the relationship. More on that later...
2. Men: Don’t advise, just listen.
Ah! The common “You just don’t get it...” Well, maybe it should be more like, “You just don’t understand why.” Women tend to see communication as a way to explore feelings and feel comforted by their partners. AKA: She’s not looking for a solution! It’s more about the journey and conversation itself that matters for her. On the polar opposite side... men have a tendency to want to think of clear solutions, healthy advice, and they want to deliver it as fast as possible. Because of this, couples can gain from just getting a better understanding of what the other is looking for. He wants to give advice, but she just wants to be heard.
3. Women: Appreciate that he wants to comfort you.
Men: Act like you care.
Men will see a problem that needs to be solved and show care for their partner by putting their energy into solving the problem for her. This means he will get analytical, explore different problem-solving tactics, and try to communicate them to her. Meanwhile, she’s really just looking for an attentive listener. The man could really help his relationship by asking heartfelt questions in order to understand her better and make sure she feels like she’s being listened to (perhaps via some nonverbal cues).
4. Women: Understand that men also enjoy some “quality me-time.”
Men are often accused of being uncommunicative or withdrawn, and on the surface, this may appear true. But women might have a lot to gain from understanding the reasons for this behavior. If your man seems a little bit isolated, this likely means that he’s just taking a quick break from his problems. This mini-vacay may take on the form of a marathon of video games, watching TV, or reading. Don’t fret about it — just give him his space! And make sure to make him feel like everything is going to be alright by letting him know that you trust that he is on top of things.
5. Women: Try to be more clear about your intentions.
Women and men are different in how they say things to one and other. Women are a bit more indirect than men, tend to avoid direct accusations, and might prefer to launch indirect allegations instead.
So it might be best for women to be more precise with their man and for him to delve a bit deeper into what exactly they are actually discussing. For example, she might not say, “I’m mad about what you said at dinner last night.” Instead, she might opt for a sarcastic remark such as, “Maybe you should think about being nicer during our dates.” When this happens, you might both be arguing about or defending different things.
6. Men: Make sure she knows you’re listening by giving feedback.
Partners differ in their communication styles via verbal responses, physical contact, and eye contact. Generally, men won’t place much stress on reaffirming his partner that he’s listening via eye contact or other verbal cues like, “aha... oh... well... yes...”. On the other hand, women place a strong emphasis on this constant feedback to assure themselves and those they’re speaking to that that both parties are engaged in the conversation. Humming might go a long way if you’re a guy!
7. Women: Try seeing a task as just a task.
Men: Add some romanticism into the task itself.
Women engage themselves by building trust first through talking and then participating in tasks together, that they will accomplish because of that trust. Men tend to dismiss this trust chat and instead rush straight into the mission of accomplishing a task. For example: If they need to work with their boss, they’ll do it even if they don’t like her. Both parties stand to gain from taking a step back and seeing the way their significant other behaves, and always acting with additional empathy. They both may have the same objective in mind, but different ways and speeds of getting there!
8. Women: Understand that men often need to be doing something while they chat.
Men tend to communicate while doing, and the activity itself is central to fostering a feeling that they can open up emotionally. Meanwhile, women feel closer while speaking — they can go without the need for a secondary activity. Recognizing this may help women understand when their partner seeks to do something before, or even in the middle of, an argument. He might just be seeking out a better environment to discuss the issue, while she’s trying to discuss everything right now!
9. Men: Don’t hesitate to ask for help.
They may perceive that the need to ask for help is a reflection of their inability to achieve something. Meanwhile, for women, offering advice is perceived as a sign of caring for someone else. To bridge this gap, it may help to be as clear as possible about your intentions, rather than to allow the other person to just assume that you’re seeking to help as a way of pointing out their weakness to them. Yikes! So, as an example, let’s take a look at the illustration above. Imagine he’s on his computer trying to solve a problem. Don’t just say, “You’re doing it wrong, you need my help.” Try saying instead, “I’ve had that bug before, want me to check and see if I can fix it?”
10. Women: Realize that men are selective listeners.
They’re what we call “selective listeners.” This point ties into the previous point about men seeking to solve problems — they’ll only listen long enough to ask as much as they deem necessary in order to find a solution. On the other hand, women show greater appreciation for verbal and non-verbal cues and may be offended if these 2 are not present.
11. Women: Don’t let your anger accumulate.
Men “compartmentalize,” while women see each argument as part of a greater whole. In other words, men are perfectly fine having an argument on a particular subject, letting it go, and moving on to a second subject without much thought about the former argument lingering in their minds. Whereas a woman is likely to carry her anger over onto the next item on the list. It may for help both to understand that this isn’t just her “not letting it go” or him “forgetting about it.” Instead, both members of the relationship simply understand problems and the relationships between them differently.
12. Women and men: Welcome your partner’s communication style.
Although almost all of us have succumbed to the previous points, it’s also important to acknowledge that different people (regardless of their gender) have different communication styles. Some may be more competitive communicators, be okay with challenges, and be direct in their communication. Others may be more affiliative communicators, meaning they fall into the group of people who enjoy asking others for feedback, they like listening to all sides, and they generally avoid conflict. So, remember, your partner is also unique.

The longest-serving companion of a British Monarch, Prince Philip, turned 99 years old earlier this month. He still keeps a smile on his face even though, over the years, he has lost his family, faced money struggles, and sacrificed the things he loved the most from his career to his last name.
Bright Side would like to share the unknown side of Prince Philip’s story with our readers.
Greek roots and family problems
Philip was born on the Greek island of Corfu in 1921 in the succession of thrones of Greece and Denmark, but things didn’t go very well. Shortly after his birth, Philip’s uncle, King Constantine I, was forced to renounce the throne and Prince Philip’s family had to flee to France. He was carried in a makeshift crib, made from a fruit box. Later, Prince Philip’s mother was committed to a psychiatric institution and was diagnosed with schizophrenia. His father moved away and barely kept in touch with his family.
A bright student with a promising career in the Navy
In his youth, Philip was described as a, “know it all smarty person, but was always remarkably polite.” For the sake of saving money, he also attended a school in Germany which was owned by the family of one of his brothers-in-law. Unfortunately, just a few years later, his sister and her family, including 3 young children, were all killed in a plane crash. His uncle and guardian, Lord Milford, died of bone marrow cancer the next year. Graduating against all odds, he enrolled in the Royal Naval College and excelled as “the best cadet” of the group, becoming one of the youngest first lieutenants in the Royal Navy.
Young love that bloomed into marriage
In 1939, Prince Philip escorted the 2 princesses of the royal family and that is when Princess Elizabeth fell for him. The couple exchanged love letters for years until 1946, when Philip asked the King for his blessing to marry Elizabeth. The King initially didn’t approve of him, since Philip was considered “poor” by Royal standards. He was a Greek Prince, had Nazi relatives, and the King found him “blunt and irritating.” Being really close to her father, Elizabeth eventually convinced King George, but Philip had to give up his Royal titles, naturalize as a British citizen, renounce his religion, and adopt his mother’s last name “Mountbatten.” On his wedding day, he reportedly had 12 pence in his bank account.
The aftermath of being the Consort of the Queen
Upon King George’s death, an announcement was made declaring that the new Queen would not be taking her husband’s last name and would continue as a Windsor. This really upset the Duke — “I am nothing but a bloody amoeba. I am the only man in the country not allowed to give his name to his own children.” Philip was also left with no choice but to give up his career in the Navy. “It was not my ambition to be president of the Mint Advisory Committee. I didn’t want to be president of WWF. I was asked to do it. I’d much rather have stayed in the Navy, frankly,” he told Independent in an interview.
Retirement and being the oldest male ever in the British Royal Family
Prince Philip completed 22,219 solo projects for the Queen until he retired in 2017, at age 96. He is currently the longest-serving and the oldest-ever male member of the royal family. The Duke is now 99 years old and his net worth is estimated to be around $30 million. Whereas, his wife’s numbers are standing strong at over $500 million, and their son Charles’ net worth is around $400 million. Now and even before his retirement, Philip engaged in charity work, especially that which involved wildlife conservation. Through his The Duke of Edinburgh Award, he trains thousands of young people every year across the globe.

”

For some reason, society puts a lot of emphasis on size, even though the same clothing size in various stores fits completely different measurements. Sure, the body positivity movement has paved the way for curvy women, but until they stop being called “brave” for loving themselves, our work here is far from over.
We at Bright Side turned our eyes toward the famous goddesses who help us feel more confident by simply being themselves and their words of self-love are something every woman needs to hear.
1. Amy Schumer
Schumer isn’t opposed to joking around about her size, which has served as material for many sketches on her Inside Amy Schumer show. However, once, when a person on Instagram criticized her appearance, she didn’t stay silent and powerfully clapped back: “I like how I really look. That’s my body. I love my body for being strong and healthy.”
2. Jennifer Lopez
For years, both men and women have been admiring J-Lo’s shapely figure. Although she’s proud of how she looks now, there were times when she was insecure about her larger-than-average bottom: “I remember thinking I wasn’t thin enough because I had curves. But I’ve learned that being healthy and feeling great aren’t about having one specific body type — it’s a completely individual thing.”
3. Kelly Clarkson
The famous singer has gone through some weight fluctuations throughout the years, but they didn’t affect her beauty. Being in the public eye, Kelly knew she had to tune out the critics who always had their eye on her weight change: “I’ve just never cared what people think. It’s more about if I’m happy and I’m confident and feeling good. That’s always been my thing. And more so now, since having a family—I don’t seek out any other acceptance.”
4. Beyoncé
Beyoncé became one of the biggest inspirations to curvy women after coining the word “bootylicious” and even officially getting it into the dictionary. She’s always stayed true to her shape and proudly flaunted her gifts to help others love themselves as well. She once said: “We do not value ourselves enough. Especially young people, [who] don’t really appreciate how brilliant our bodies are.”
5. Demi Lovato
Lovato struggled with eating disorders for nearly a decade, but came out victorious on the other side. She used to look down on herself and doesn’t want this to happen to other girls like her: “I was on Instagram and I started comparing myself to these IG models. I thought to myself; someone needs to show my fans and anybody that’s looking at my account that what you see isn’t always what’s real.” So Demi took the lead and posted her own un-retouched photos with the caption: “No thigh gap for me, and yet I still love myself.”
6. Lena Dunham
The Girls creator admits that she has a complicated relationship with her body, but she accepts it as part of the process, and at the end of the day remembers to love herself: “I’ve never called myself ‘body positive,’ because my relationship with my curves and scars isn’t overtly political— it’s wildly personal. And it isn’t always positive. I take enormous comfort in the body positivity movement, but I think of myself as something more like ‘body tolerant.’”
7. Mindy Kaling
The shapely Ms. Kaling showed everyone that you don’t have to be a size 0 to be the star of your own show. She’s dealt with insecurities her entire life, but now she’s confident and successful: “Being called fat, being called not pretty, these are just weapons that men can use against women that we can’t use against them. I am fairly impervious to when people say those things about me, because it’s like, well, I was born this way and I can’t really change that.”
8. Oprah Winfrey
Oprah’s words of wisdom need to be taught in schools: “I think of all the years I’ve wasted hating myself fat, wanting myself thin. Feeling guilty about every croissant, then giving up carbs, then fasting, then dieting, then worrying when I wasn’t dieting, then eating everything I wanted until the next diet. All that energy I could have spent loving what is.”
9. Lizzo
The successful singer knows all too well what it’s like to want to be someone else. It took her accepting her own body to become an unstoppable woman who’s now enjoying the fame and, most importantly, herself: “I remember one day being like, ‘This is it.’ 20-some-odd years of me believing that one day I can wake up and be some other girl. It’s like, you’re not gonna wake up and be bigger or smaller or lighter or darker; your hair’s not gonna suddenly grow down past your knees. You’re going to look this way for the rest of your life. And you have to be OK with that.”
10. Serena Williams
The legendary tennis player sets a stellar example for her daughter by being proud of her body and celebrating it for everything it has helped her achieve: “I was constantly told I was too muscular, or I wasn’t pretty enough to be a tennis player. I learned to ignore the negativity and look inwards to truly love myself... I love who I am... I love my body, my skin, my confidence and I fully embrace everything about me.”
11. Ashley Graham
Graham became the first ever plus-size model to be featured on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and since then she’s made the entire fashion world play by her rules. Ashley promotes beauty beyond size and preaches to women that they need to be happy and healthy: “It doesn’t matter what size or shape you are. You can be healthy. It’s not just about our size. It’s about our mind, our heart, our emotions. We get so wrapped up in this size conversation.”
12. Melissa McCarthy
McCarthy never allowed Hollywood to dictate how she should look. She’d already won 2 Emmy Awards and had been nominated for a Golden Globe and an Oscar, before she decided to lose some weight. Melissa has a full control over how she looks and knows she’s her own woman: “With women, there’s this constant weird cultural thing where we’re always supposed to be comparing ourselves with one another. Who wore it best? Whose butt’s better? Instead, how about if everyone wins? How intensely boring would it be if we were all the same?”
13. Iskra Lawrence
Lawrence is currently a successful plus-size model, but she didn’t start out that way. Previously, Iskra struggled with trying to fit into fashion standards. It was a difficult time for her, but she was strong enough to accept herself and that’s when she finally found her spot in the sun: “I was so confused about why my body was curvy. That’s when I became obsessed with my weight... When I looked in the mirror, I hated what I saw. [One day] I was like, ’Okay, I’m different, and that’s what’s going to make me work.’ I never wanted to diet again. Once I convinced myself that I could do this, I was able to convince [the agencies].”
14. Rihanna
RiRi once confessed that she has an unstable figure, which makes it easy for her to gain weight: “I actually have had the pleasure of a fluctuating body type, where one day I can literally fit into something that is bodycon, and then the next day — the next week — I need something oversized; I need a little crop here and a high-waist there to hide that part, you know?” Still, it has no control over her confidence and she doesn’t let it bother her.
15. Christina Aguilera
Aguilera has also had to learn how to live with frequent weight gain and loss. Funnily enough, she realized that whatever size she is, someone will always be unhappy, but she knows that it’s only her opinion that matters: “I’ve been through my highs, I’ve been through my lows... Being too thin. Being bigger. I’ve been criticized for being on both sides of the scale. It’s noise I block out automatically. I love my body.”

Some of his most notable films are Drunken Master and Snake in the Eagle’s Shadow. In 2016, he was recognized with an honorary Oscar award for his complete works, a total of 142 productions.
14. Robert Wagner / 151 roles
American actor and film producer, Robert Wagner was born on February 10, 1930, and began acting at age 20 with The Happy Years. Years later, 20th Century Fox took a chance on him as a future youth star with the film, With a Song in my Heart, and in titles such as Titanic (the 1953 version). His career led him to star in a total of 151 productions, including television, where he worked both as an actor and producer.
13. Susan Sarandon / 161 roles
She’s still an actress at large at 73 years of age. Susan Sarandon got her first role in Joe in 1970. 12 years later, she earned her first Oscar nomination for Atlantic City. Sarandon has continued in cinema with titles like Emotional Arithmetic. After tallying all her contributions, she’s taken part in a whopping 161 performances.
12. Anthony Quinn / 169 roles
This Mexican actor was born on April 21, 1915, in the state of Chihuahua. Considered “exotic” in cinema, he participated in films like Buffalo Bill and They Died With Their Boots On. His role as Zapata’s brother in ¡Viva Zapata! got him his first Oscar. He earned a second one with Lust for Life. Although his specialty was adventure cinema, he also found time to play Barabbas, Zeus, and The Hunchback of Notre Dame, scoring 169 appearances as an actor. He undoubtedly succeeded at transforming into all kinds of characters before passing away in 2001 at the age of 86.
11. Eli Wallach / 174 roles
An American actor of Jewish descent, born on December 7, 1915, Eli Wallach made around 174 movie appearances. Most of his films were westerns, like Baby Doll and Seven Thieves, but he also acted in titles like New York, I Love You and Wall Street II. However, it was only after being Tuco from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly and Don Altobello in The Godfather III that Wallach was able to achieve cinematic glory. In 2011, he won an Academy Award, and 3 years later, he made headlines once again, passing away at the age of 98.
10. Michael Caine / 176 roles
Michael Caine was born on March 14, 1933, in London. In his early days as an actor, his stage name was Michael White, which he later changed to Caine, as he’s known today. Before beginning his career in film, he worked in theater and television. His initial success came from participating in The Ipcress File. Among his most recognized films are Sleuth, California Suite, Hannah and Her Sisters (for which he won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor), Little Voice (for which he won a Golden Globe), and Batman Begins. His career to date makes a full list of 176 roles as an actor.
9. Samuel L. Jackson / 191 roles
This roughly 71-year-old American actor made his first big-screen appearance in 1973 with Together for Days, but it wasn’t until his assassin role in Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction that he reached stardom. The films he worked on following this success not only secured his place in cinema, but racked up his participation in just over 191 productions. We can still see him today in Star Wars, 1408, and Iron Man.
8. Donald Sutherland / 194 roles
Born on July 17, 1935, Donald Sutherland played roles in both horror and war movies in the 1960s and 1970s. He debuted as an actor in the early 1960s in smaller roles in film and television before later landing important roles alongside Christopher Lee. The film that took him to the height of Hollywood success was The Gallows. 3 years later, he was nominated for a Golden Globe for MASH. He’s moved away from the spotlight in more recent years, but can be remembered for his roles in The Hunger Games, The Time of Their Lives and Ad Astra: Towards the Stars. Sutherland has appeared in 194 credits throughout his acting career, which has earned him an honorary Oscar.
7. Louis Gossett Jr. / 202 roles
With just over 200 film appearances under his belt, this American actor born on May 27, 1936, is not only recognized for his work in cinema but also in various television series. He was first awarded for his work in 1977 when he received an Emmy for “Best Guest Actor in a Drama Series,” and 5 years later, his film An Officer and a Gentleman scored him “Best Supporting Actor” at the Oscars and the Golden Globes.
6. Christopher Plummer / 216 roles
This Toronto-born actor has spent 7 decades on stage. Already having starred in 216 performances, he assured us in an interview that he’s only warming up for his next roles: “Maybe in my 90s I’ll turn into a woman and play all the great parts again!” He is recognized for his work in television, theater, and cinema. He’s been awarded for his work with both Tony and Oscar awards. We can still see his great performances in films such as A Beautiful Mind, Alexander the Great, Beginners, All the Money in The World, and The Man Who Invented Christmas.
5. Robert Loggia / 234 roles
Robert Loggia has accumulated more than 200 roles in productions with all kinds of directors and characters. Born in the United States in 1930, he was always clear-headed about his vocation as an actor, making his Broadway debut early in the 1950s. In the last years of his life, he was forced away from the spotlight due to Alzheimer’s, but his films Prizzi’s Honor, Scarface, and Suspicion secured him a place in the history of cinematography.
4. Christopher Lee / 282 roles
The British artist, who passed away in 2015 at age 93, amassed nearly 300 performances throughout his legendary career. It was in the late 1940s that he began debuting as a supporting actor in Terence Young’s film, Hall of Mirrors, and the famous 1948 adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic, Hamlet. Over the years, his appearances ranged from movies like Dracula in the 1950s and 1960s, Frankenstein in 1957, Sherlock Holmes in 1970, and his highly-acclaimed role in The Lord of the Rings.
3. Danny Trejo / 404 roles
This American actor of Mexican origin has made history within the Hollywood film industry, not only for his more than 400 acting roles but for what his life was like before stardom. During his youth, he committed several crimes in his native California, which led him to serve a lengthy prison sentence. His career in cinema began in 1985 when he was given a role as a convict in the movie Runaway Train. Years later, he starred in Animal Factory, Once Upon a Time in Mexico, and The Devil’s Rejects. His characters always carry the names of bladed weapons, hence the famous pseudonym “Machete,” a role he played in Spy Kids which gave him the nickname.
2. James Hong / 439 roles
Although this 91-year-old American actor isn’t remembered for all his works, which currently number at more than 400, he’s had a career spanning 7 decades. He started in the 1950s as a voice actor and later participated in the Kung-Fu series. In the 1970s, he began to shine in films like Diagnosis: Murder and Chinatown. However, it was only later, with the movie Blade Runner, that he became a cult star. Since then, he has starred in renowned TV series such as Friends and Seinfeld.
1. Eric Roberts / 577 roles
64 years doesn’t sound that long until you realize that the American actor Eric Roberts took that long to star in more than 500 roles. In late 1978, Roberts made his film debut by appearing in King of the Gypsies, a film for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe in the category of “Best New Actor.” One of the peak moments of his career was his leading role in the movie, Star 80 in 1983, for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe again. And then, 2 years later, his role in The Train from Hell turned him into one of the most well-known “best-supporting actors.” In an interview, the actor, who’s also the brother of Julia Roberts and father of Emma Roberts, assured us that, despite filming 74 films annually and not having rejected a single job offer to date, his passion for acting has remained intact.

We at Bright Side gathered all the theories into one article to finally try to understand why it seems like medieval artists didn’t like children very much, and as a bonus, we prepared something else for you.
The masters had to change their focus.
From the dawn of art history, people have used drawings to convey ideas, which include very realistic images of people and animals, but then something changed. The reason for this was probably something historians have called the Migration period. A lot of knowledge, including artistic techniques, had to be refocused in the 5th century — and the masters would eventually have to rediscover them. The focus shifted from art imitates life to art for storytelling, and this was largely due to the illiteracy rate. Many artists were commissioned by the Catholic church to depict biblical scenes for the masses. And along with this shift, came an abstraction of form. Artists were no longer focusing on naturalistic imagery and were instead trying to convey complex stories. The best way to do this was through stylized and abstracted forms (almost like the medieval version of the modern day comic strips).
The meaning is more important than the appearance.
In the Middle Ages, phenomena and objects were valued not by their real qualities, but by their essence — and portraying this essence was no easy task. So, as we mentioned above, Medieval art was more symbolic than realistic. Children were used as symbols — they were the images of characters, many of whom performed great exploits as adults, so they were supposed to be shown as courageous and rough, even from birth.
Traditions that people were afraid to break
Artists from the Medieval Ages were expressionists rather than naturalists. The idea of creative freedom, where an artist draws however they please, wasn’t valued or encouraged. So the traditional image of a baby who looks like a flabby middle-aged man stayed around at least until the Renaissance.
The harsh truth of life
In the Middle Ages, the concept of childhood didn’t exist. Sons and daughters were valued more like helpers in the household. A baby could pass away at any moment, which is why people tried to not get too attached to them. Most mothers, especially in well-off families, gave their children away to a wet nurse and a nanny right after they were born. And when the child became a bit older, they started to work without being catered to because of their young age.
Children from noble families also never had a chance to do nothing. In the portraits that appeared at the end of the 15th century, babies aren’t playing with their father’s scepters or hiding medals under their capes. They look serious and like they’ve acknowledged their responsibility to their kin and the state.
Eleonora of Toledo with her son Giovanni de’ Medici
Each royal family was supposed to have at least 4 boys, who were supposed to live into adulthood. The first son would become the Grand Duke. The second son would be a cardinal, with a good chance of becoming the Pope in the future. The third son would be the leader of the army, and the fourth son would be engaged in the family business — banking.
The idea of creating an adult right away
Alchemy was popular in the Middle Ages. And one of its main branches was an attempt to create a person with the help of artificial means. This person was called a homunculus, and he was imagined as a completely grown-up man. Pictorial art didn’t hang behind, and these balding, flabby, beaten-by-life babies appeared in the paintings. They had neither puffy cheeks nor big eyes, and some even had beards.
A lack of opportunity to study anatomy
Medicine was in a very difficult position, because it was believed that a person who goes to the doctor was doing something indecent. And if someone decided to study the body of a deceased person, it was considered a disaster. The only people who had official access to bodily anatomy were the executioners. And as a rule, they did not draw. To portray a person normally, artists had to work hard and risk their lives. Both artists and sculptors studied human bodies at night. They were very secretive and very quiet about it.
There were no fun reasons to draw a picture.
For the most part, people couldn’t read. And there were very few books. Besides, books were very precious items, so they were huge to make them harder to steal. This meant that paintings were almost the only publicly available way to spread and receive information. Almost like comics — only stories about superheroes didn’t exist back then. The plots were biblical or historical, and they weren’t very funny.
So when and why did children become beautiful?
During the Renaissance, non-religious art flourished — people wanted to look at their own children, not just at symbolic art. The rich Florentine people insisted on this trend, and it didn’t seem like a good idea to go against their wishes.
Renaissance artists also found new interests — they watched nature and showed things the way they saw them. The expressionism of the Middle Ages was gone, which led to the appearance of these realistic paintings of babies.
The concept of a baby was transformed during the Renaissance. From small adults, children turned into completely innocent creatures. This happened when the idea that every child is born sinless and knows nothing about the world was spread through society.
Bonus: Medieval artists not only depicted children in a strange way. Cats had a hard time too.

We at Bright Side found out which world-famous celebrities secretly use each other and find inspiration in other people’s looks. It turned out that even those who are considered fashion icons have been caught plagiarizing several times.
Kate Middleton and Caitlin Jenner
In 2015, when Caitlin Jenner gained self-confidence, she started to appear often in public and pose for the paparazzi wearing exquisite outfits. It seems like she decided to learn from the experience of her acknowledged style icon, Kate Middleton, who she’s taken many ideas for her looks from. For example, Caitlin’s blue dress with lace very much resembles an outfit that Duchess of Cambridge chose for a public event in 2011.
Rihanna and Rita Ora
Since Rita Ora appeared in show business for the first time, people started to compare her with Rihanna. And there were reasons for this — many of her outfits clearly resemble the gowns of the singer from Barbados. Rita got inspired by Rihanna’s everyday and evening outfits, as well as by her stage costumes. For example, Rita wore a satin dress with a high slit on the red carpet 2 years after Rihanna shone brightly in a similar outfit.
Naomi Campbell and Kim Kardashian
The it-girl often appears in public wearing outfits that are reminiscent of the 1990s, but it seems like her inspiration doesn’t just come from the period itself, but from the supermodel, Naomi Campbell. Kim Kardashian has borrowed many ideas from the runway star and appeared in public wearing exactly the same dresses and outfits. In 2019, she tried on the iconic leopard jumpsuit, which Campbell wore at a fashion show back in 1991. Kardashian isn’t ashamed by this, and she leaves captions under her posts with the looks borrowed from the supermodel that say, “Naomi Forever.”
Madonna and Lady Gaga
In 2011, a serious scandal flared up around Lady Gaga’s name — many people noticed that her new track, “Born This Way” sounds a lot like Madonna’s hit “Express Yourself.” These singers have similarities not only in their music, but in their style as well. Lady Gaga has been seen several times wearing outfits that clearly resemble Madonna’s signature style, like conical bras, mesh tights, corsets, high leather boots, and other clothing items.
Kate Moss and Sienna Miller
The cold war between Kate Moss and Sienna Miller has been going on for over 10 years. As usual, it all started with a man. The fact is that Miller stole Jude Law from the model’s best friend, actress Sadie Frost. And the fact that Sienna takes inspiration from Kate’s outfits only adds fuel to the fire. Jeans and sweaters with stripes, leopard prints, fur coats and jackets, fringe boots — these clothing elements give us a reason to believe that Jude Law’s ex-lover borrows from Kate’s ideas.
Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande
Grande imitates her idol, Mariah Carey, in everything — in her manner of performance, style of music, behavior, and looks. And it seems like she isn’t even trying to hide it. Short tops, denim shorts, tight dresses with corsets — all of these clothing ideas were borrowed from Carey’s wardrobe. But Ariana also has her own signature style that many of her fans have adopted — her famous high ponytail.
Victoria Beckham and Chloe Moretz
When Chloe Moretz started dating Brooklyn Beckham, the dollish dresses she used to love got replaced with more business-style outfits, which Victoria isn’t indifferent to. Pantsuits, blouses, classic coats, oversized jackets — it seems like the actress borrowed all these looks from her potential mother-in-law. And although Chloe and Brooklyn have already broken up, the young star still appears in these types of strict and concise outfits to this day.
Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner
Younger children often copy their older siblings, and the Kardashian sisters didn’t escape this tradition. At the beginning of her career, Kylie borrowed ideas for her outfits from Kim more than once. Since then, it seems like Jenner has found her own style — but from time to time, outfits that have references to her sister’s looks still appear in her wardrobe. But Kim doesn’t seem to be bothered. In 2017, she and Kylie released a cosmetic line together, and they posed in almost identical looks during the photoshoot for the ad campaign.
Princess Diana and Kate Middleton
While some celebrities get inspired by the style of Kate Middleton, the duchess herself considers her mother-in-law a role model. Her numerous outfits that have similar features to Princess Diana’s iconic looks prove this assumption. For example, the look the duchess chose to attend a parade in, in 2006, was probably borrowed from Princess Diana.
Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston
Brad Pitt’s ex-wives are always compared and pitted against each other in the media and on social networks. And the media have their reasons for doing this. Their fans have noticed that some of Jolie’s outfits have something in common with Aniston’s looks. In particular, the black floor-length dress with a high slit which Angelina wore at the Oscar ceremony in 2012 is reminiscent of Aniston’s dress she wore at a public event in 2010.
Christina Aguilera and Kim Kardashian
It turns out that Kim Kardashian doesn’t just find inspiration in Naomi Campbell’s wardrobe, but also in Christina Aguilera’s style as well. The fans of this it-girl noticed that her snow-white outfit with cowboy leather pants is very similar to the legendary look from the singer’s music video Dirrty. It’s also interesting that Kim’s younger sister, Kylie Jenner, had already recreated this outfit right down to the tiniest detail.
