Men only: dance moves guaranteed to attract the ladies …

Excerpted from: Digital Journal, Study: Certain male dance moves attract women, Sept. 8, 2010

Researchers in the UK have discovered what moves women find attractive while watching men dance.

The study used computerized 3D avatar figures to see what “key movement areas of the male dancer’s body influence female perceptions.”

There were eight “movement variables” that the women found to be either good or bad in a male dancer, including the size and variability of neck, torso, left shoulder and wrist movement – and the right knee’s speed of movement.

The women liked seeing “large and varied movements involving the neck and torso.”

“The dance moves may form honest signals of a man’s reproductive quality, in terms of health, vigor or strength.”

“This is the first study to show objectively what differentiates a good dancer from a bad one.

If a man knows what the key moves are, he can improve his chances of attracting females.”
