That is an expression using the face, the face itself says nothing of the person ShottleBop , just a mere face, you need a person inside to not look like a zombie , or even a bad actor with totally blanked eyes .

Awareness, I've tried to step away from my initial impressions of your philosophy, and look at it fresh.
If you interact with real people in your life the way you talk here about how to interact with people, I can't see how you can have any close relationships.

While it may be true that a person's current facial expression or body language don't tell you whether they are a fundamentally good person, loving, or caring... they can tell you very much about what that person is feeling at that moment.

What has that got to with it , good or loving or caring catchthisdrift ?
If you can you can tell by her or his eyes what she is feeling........
blabbing away and not looking in the eyes, is just pretending to have contact....
And if you care about the person inside, who they are, their experience in this life, then you have to care about how they feel in that moment. The kindest most loving person you know could at a particular moment be experiencing intense grief.. sadness.. despair. THAT is the them they want others to know at that time.
I know this is a bit cliche - but cliche doesn't make something untrue - we are each the culmination of what we've experienced and felt up to this moment in our lives. You're right, there is a "me" inside. But the me in this moment has feelings about this moment, and something that happened last night, something that I know is supposed to happen later today. It's all influenced by my life before this moment.
A person't life experiences and feelings are absolutely part of who they are inside.

And a person's physical characteristics absolutely have a profound effect on their life experiences and feelings. A black male who grew up in an inner city has a much different perspective than a white male who grew up in a middle class suburb. A person considered attractive in their culture has a different perspective than someone considered ugly.

How you are as a person is what people should go after, how you look means nothing , so being a woman or being a man does not one bit of a difference..
When i talk to transgender i talk to the person, which will come out , and it the person is just greater, a face not just right yet, does not scare me, even a face black does not scare me, i talk right through the skin , every one , because what some one feels is always right, it is always pure and always true, your ability to feel is in fact invincible.
How your brain thinks that is another story, but it does have to communicate with what you feel
