Have a bitchy resting face? It could actually be beneficial
BITCHY RESTING FACE is a phenomenon that’s talked about a lot in relation to women. For those of you unfamiliar, bitchy resting face (BRF) is used to describe women when they look sad or angry for no particular reason when their face isn’t doing anything else.

Youtubers Broken People brought the phrase to popularity back in 2013 with their Bitchy Resting Face PSA.
While Vice reports on a study that suggest that people are less likely to trust women with BRF, recent studies say that having the ‘condition’ is actually beneficial.
