Have you ever wondered why most people when answering a call from their cellphone walks around while talking? Why is it? I have been wondering this for years.

I also thought that this “phenomenon” is only evident in our country until I visited other countries and people in there are doing the same!

Is it just giving justice to the word “mobile” that is why when we use mobile phones and talk to somebody we always walk?

I made a search on the internet if I can find a similar inquiry. I found one in http://in.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20060810001840AA5Uy2m and I would like to share to you some of their answers.

“I don’t know,Why people walk while talking on the cellphone? Articles I just feel more comfortable if I walk a little while I’m talking, more connected to that other person somehow, like I can focus better if I’m walking. I think if I just sit, I get distracted by a magazine cover or something that’s lying around.”

“while we walk….we talk, we laugh, we watch others while they talk and walk……….and they watch us talk and walk…….”

“coz people know dat someone or the other is watching him….”

“to avoid wasting time in just talking or listening.”

“We’re all multitaskers at heart.

Also, some of us prefer to be in motion so that it’s harder for others to overhear our conversation.”

“BECAUSE IT IS A MOBILE PHONE”

“when we’re talking on cell we feel that we r with person and its naturally to react physically as well as mentally”

How about you? do you share the same reason?
