Why do people rub there chin when they ponder?!


Question: It seems to me that it has something to do with our fight or flight instincts..Some type of survival mechanism maybe.
I do it a lot,and have a feeling it is because it is of a serious nature,i am deeply thinking,i place my head on my chin and focus..It seems to be built in to myself..It offers almost a protective feeling,hand in front of the body,prepared for battle:)
Anyone else agree?
