Trial lawyers will expound at length about how juries' perception of what witness behavior means is completely unrelated to reality.
Note that this is the problem that was solved by reference to a "jury of your peers". Your peers are familiar with you in specific and know how you behave. But the evolution of the US legal system has actually banned being tried by a jury of your peers; you're required to be judged by strangers who have never heard of you.
