“Then we filmed the men dancing naturally. We played this footage back, blurred out on a screen, so women couldn’t tell how physically attractive thee men were. They could only see the moves, and the women consistently rated the higher testosterone men as better dancers and more attractive.”

Dr Lovatt says low-testosterone dancing involves small movements, generally keeping within the frame of the body. High-testosterone men, however, co-ordinate bigger movements in different parts of their body, making their outline more interesting and spectators keener to watch them for longer...

“Men sometimes say they’ve got no rhythm as an excuse, because they think dancing’s not for them. Well, it is, it’s a display thing. Men should dance, and the more manly they are, the more they should dance.”

Get out on that dance floor next time, men of GAF.

 

[Zen_Arcade]

But I don't like to dance.

 

[demosthenes]

That makes sense for me.

 

[PJV3]

Absolutely not.

 

[Sai-kun]

dancing owns

 

[rexor0717]

I love dancing and I'm pretty decent at it too. This is good news,lol.

 

[esms]

My girlfriend forces me to. I don't get a choice.

[John Kowalski]

What do i care what women think of me? I don't need their approval. Stick it up your bottom misses.

Awesome scene

 

[Dennis]

He looks like a robot.

 

[CharlieDigital]

Oddly enough, since I've had my daughter, I've danced more.

Maybe I'm just getting old and IDGAF how stupid I look or maybe I just feel less self conscious dancing with a 4 year old.

[DeathoftheEndless]

If I did things only for girls' attention, I would be miserable.

 

[God Dayumm]

That's low-testosterone dancing

 

[PreFire]

I know how to dance, I just think it's s corny, personally. Makes me feel like a dweeb.. Even if I am dancing with the hottest girl in the room.

If I'm dating a girl who wants to go out dancing every weekend, it's over. I danced (choreographed) professionally in front of large audiences in Madison square garden and the paramount theatre. Those days are over.

I love music, but hate dancing but know how and absolutely won't unless I'm hammered.. Which then follows up with making out with an ugly girl, taking her home and having her do the walk of shame once I sober up and kick her out.

Seriously though, I don't like to dance. Idc what the study says about manliness lol

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

I'm a dancing beast, I guess that automatically makes me a manly beast as well?

 

[Divvy]

I started taking dance lessons with my fiance for our wedding, and I really didn't expect it, but I'm actually quite enjoying it. Man it's hard though

That is the low testosterone talking.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

My momma don't dance, my daddy don't rock and roll, and I am their progeny.

 

[SocksAndShoes]

I honestly hate dancing. I don't get enjoyment from it and I have a GF already, so....yeah.

 

[highrider]

I was actually in like a pop/break group back in the day so I can actually dance pretty good, but dancing with a female always makes me feel kind of self conscious. When I was stationed in Germany going to clubs people mostly danced by themselves. To me that's a better way.


Edit: I am bursting with testosterone.

 

[esms]

Am I the only one that has a go-to "don't wanna dance" dance?

 

[ChawlieTheFair]

We can dance if you want to.

 

[luffxan]

Solid logic, I'm down

 

[Angry Grimace]

I love to dance, I'm just horrible at it. Then again, most girls I've met who thought they were good dancers were atrocious, they're just girls and guys don't actually care.

 

[RobotNinjaHornets]

Dancing is the worst

Wait scratch that people who assume everyone likes dancing and they just need to let go are the worst

You can't make me dance

Leave me alone

This ^

Need video.

Apparently, the trick is to have big moves if you want to woo the ladies with a subconscious display of your testosterone fueled manliness.

If I did things only for girls' attention...

Isn't that the whole purpose of life?

 

[hal9001]

nvm

 

[UberTag]

Dancing is also used to celebrate not having a girl's attention.

O_O ...LEGOOOOO

 

[Eidan]

If your idea of dancing is hopping, please ignore this and just stop dancing.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

When you put it like that, maybe I was wrong and we could all learn a thing or two from Nathaniel here:

 

[Buddha Beam]

The only time I dance is to try and make my wife laugh at the absurdity of a fat man pulling off dem slick moves.

 

[esms]

Need video.

Imagine this, but goofier.

 

[subrock]

Dude I go hard.

 

[dramatis]

I think it depends. I don't think a man doing a waltz would necessarily be doing a lot of "high testosterone" movements, but he could be attractive to a lady still just through the grace involved in the dance.

Or maybe there's actually a lot of high testosterone movements in a waltz. Who knows.

I compensate for lack of actual skills by using some insane moves. I used to get a lot of surprisingly positive attention from girls for my enthusiastic bad dancing.

I honestly think they simply like the confidence to just say fuck it and do something like that.

 

[Kurita]

Dancing is life. Can't listen to music without dancing like a dumbass.

 

[Ventara]

How about if I stick brightly-coloured feathers in my hair?

 

[djplaeskool]

Put on some house music, and I'm in there.

 

[halfbeast]

yep, he exudes masculinity!

 

[perfectchaos007]

works for birds, but as a human just have a bunch of $100 bills visible on your person and the female humans will flock to you

[ShyGuy0504]

I don't care abut dancing and I'm not manly so I'll pass.
