However, the form of their signal differs.

Meghan Markle has adopted a 'presidential and persuasive' voice

Tinder is known as having changed the way people date. But Grindr is actually the first geosocial dating app to hit the market in Like Tinder, Grindr is a smart phone app which uses your location to generate potential matches nearby. Profile pictures of people around you show up on the screen. Grindr is most often referred to as a hookup app because men can meet other men for hookups , seemingly meaningless and often anonymous sex, and move on.

It has been suggested the app has helped queer men who want to stay in the closet or those who are too young to go out to gay adult venues. The costly signaling theory suggests that people engage in behaviours that appear to be costly because they want to give an honest signal to a potential mate. This signal is something that can not be copied. A higher-quality tail is costly because it requires energy and resources to grow and maintain.

A costly signal is needed to demonstrate that you are the best match. It is how we know the signal is honest and is not cheating. In the same way, good physique and physical fitness cannot be cheated. So displaying physical fitness is an honest signal to a healthy lifestyle and good genes. In my research I found that straight guys on Tinder are more likely to use conspicuous consumption to attract women. Many Tinder men portray themselves with an expensive car for example.

Tinder males are likely to signal specific resources or potential for acquiring resources, while women are more likely to signal pro-social behaviours such as benevolence, charitable work or virtue.

This is done to signal positive information about themselves and their genetic fitness to others. Grindr guys display their physical fitness and use their good looks. They demonstrate that they spend time in the gym and that they take good care of their body. The Duchess of Sussex, 39, said 'my husband and I' when referring to Prince Harry on the recording, in a move reminiscent of the Queen and former First Lady Michelle Obama, who often use the same rhetorical technique, according to a UK-based body language expert.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced yesterday they will produce and host their own shows as part of the newly formed Archewell Audio - starting with a 'holiday special' that 'uplifts audiences around the world'. Meghan Markle has adopted a 'presidential and persuasive' voice, while Prince Harry pictured together is 'less confident' but 'is keen to get it all right for his wife' in the trailer for their new Spotify podcast, a behaviour expert has claimed. Their trailer opens with the duke, 36, saying to his wife: 'Ladies first' before Meghan says: 'No you say it first because I think it sounds really nice with your accent'.

He uses verbal techniques to fast-track rapport and friendship in what could be an attempt to avoid being criticised or judged. Meanwhile, Angela Levin told talkRADIO that the duchess, 39, was 'slightly patronising and very regal' on Monday, when praising the 'quiet heroes' of the coronavirus pandemic in a clip recorded for CNN pictured. Michell will stress her passion for conversations that dig deep and Meghan tells us how she and "my husband always talk about our passion for meeting people".

Meghan and Harry released a trailer of their new podcast last night. Pictured, a transcript of Meghan and Harry's teaser for their project. The body language and behaviour expert isn't the only one to have noticed Meghan's new 'regal tone', with royal author Angela Levin echoing a similar conclusion earlier in the week.

She's very regal, she talks down to us, she's slightly patronising. The commentator continued: 'She always uses the "we" term, the royal we term. That means that everybody must agree with her because she knows what everybody's thinking. She's entitled to say what she likes, of course, but it's her way of saying it.

Meghan's appearance on CNN on Monday, pictured, when the duchess praised the 'quiet heroes' of the coronavirus pandemic who have supported communities.

She said in the clip: 'We saw communities standing up and taking action. When kids' lunch programs came to a halt, we saw our neighbours make sure that those children received the nutrition they need. She added that 'we as a community showed up' to deliver food needed by vulnerable people, adding that 'we also saw the power of the human spirit' and that 'we have the power to remind someone else that there is hope'.

She did not address her own loss, but told how had been 'a year that has been universally challenging for everyone,' before praising those who rose to the occasion and fed hungry neighbours going through tough times. Meghan had been speaking as part of the CNN Heroes series which praises those making a difference in communities. The Spotify trailer featuring the Sussexes was released online this afternoon. It opens with Harry saying to his wife: 'Ladies first' before Meghan says: 'No you say it first because I think it sounds really nice with your accent'.

Meghan then says: 'One of the things my husband and I have always talked about is our passion for meeting people and hearing their stories. And no matter what the story they usually offer an understanding of where someone else is coming from. And in some way, remind you of a story about yourself'. Harry continues: 'And that is what this story is all about. To bring forward different perspectives and voices that perhaps you haven't heard before.

And find our common ground. Because when that happens change really is possible'. The Duchess of Sussex says that the podcasts will be about 'finding kindness and compassion, something we saw in some many places this year'.

She adds: 'It will underlie everything you here on Archewell Audio - so that's what we're up to'. Their first show will be a 'holiday special' this month will 'feature stories of hope and compassion from inspirational guests in celebration of the new year. Harry and Meghan both mimic church bells before saying: 'We can't wait to share it with you and will be out later this month'. Meghan says: 'We're talking to some amazing people who will share their memories that have helped shaped this year.

As we know this has been a difficult one for everyone'. Touching on the pandemic Harry says: 'So many people have suffered so much pain this year, experiencing loss and a huge amount of uncertainty but it feels worth mentioning that has connected us in ways we could never have imagined. Through endless acts of compassion and kindness'.
