@enticingbrwneyes08 No problem! You're welcome, I learned about that in a genetics class I took. So how does your tongue lift? Curl straight back or cup like a bowl? It would be interesting to see.

@cudaj2 LOL Since you mentioned it, I realized that I do exactly that! I didn't know that tidbit of info. Thanks :) When I do yawn, with my mouth open, I can stick my finger in my mouth and touch my tongue, but, I honestly don't know that "the touching the tongue" works. I think it's because I distract myself with the action of touching my tongue and that stops the yawn. Very interesting! Thanks for the comment. It made me really think about this one :)

About the yawning thing, what if you're one of the women ( usually ones with dark hair/eyes ) whose brains are genetically/hereditarily programed to flex the tongue muscle upward into a bowl or cup shape when yawning? Makes it kind of hard to touch the tongue then.
