Men should dance, the more manly they are, the more they should dance

I do the white man wiggle dance every chance I get anyway, but I guess now I'll step up the range of motion.

I read somewhere that women look for shoulder coordination the most when dudes are dancing, can't remember where, though.

Not everyone has to be a good dancer but from my experience and from what female friends tell ... woman are really attracted to guys who can dance.

Doesn't have to be "professional" dance, just move good to music, follow the flow/rythem and not only with sidestep left, sidestep right moves. Don't be shy to move a bit more. But don't overdo it. (Bonus)

I enjoy dancing, but I'll stick to doing so at a rave.
I had salsa lessons once, and oh boy did I suck. I couldn't get the most simple basics down.

I dance all the time b. Just hate dancing with girls, especially if those chicks trying to get me to twirl them.
 
Studies like these are quite funny...

Anyway, I love dancing...Been bboying for over ten years although not doing as much now as I would like. For me it is about hitting the flow and internalising the music and expressing it through my movement. I would dance to most things but I like a melody and a beat...Some music is pretty shit for dancing though.

Anyway, I love the creativity and expression in dancing. I also prefer people who go in for it rather than just hang back. Doesn't matter if you are an awesome dancer to other people, the most important thing is if you feel the music and express. A lot of people in western countries are more awkward dancers, but there are still a lot of great dancers out there.

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

Same. Thing is, in the privacy of my home I can swing it and trust me, I will. I got no rhythm or moves at all so outside the comfort of my home it's a pretty horrible experience. Wish i had some moves.

I hate dancing because it's incredibly awkward to be consciously aware of a mating/courting ritual as it's taking place.

It's like if people started smelling each others buttholes in public and then suddenly peeing everywhere and fighting. And all the while acting like they're doing it on purpose and not being controlled by their genetics.

It's also an incredibly shallow means of proving your worth to strangers and I detest it.

Happily married to a mega hottie that also hates dancing, BTW. Also usually the life of parties. Just in case someone wants to bring up that sort of thing...

Like people only dance for this, smh. It's releasing energy through your body. When i go to Drum and Bass parties people dance their ass off to get with the music and don't give a fuck. I know that in clubs with other music, it's a bit different. You still can always see which people dance because they love it and people who do it for other means.
 
Some people dance, others don't. I don't very often, but it happens. Now, someone wanna question my T-levels (lol) because of how I dance when I DO dance? SMH.
 
I really would love to learn to do some form of solo dancing. Being a musician, it can only help when I am not playing.

I love watching it though. I saw some BBoy Crew from NYC at a local beer fest in Cincinnati (Kentucky side, actually), and they were really something. Choreographed dances were great, the solo stuff was pretty solid as well. The crowd ate it up though. It was a touring BBoy group, I'm sure they've made it to other cities near you all at some point.

Did I say dancing was exclusively for those purposes?

Why does it everything has to be "because women like it" or "being attractive to women"?

I enjoyed dancing the shit out of Just Dance with a couple of dudes at a party and some of them were like "man, I'm embarassed of doing this shit in front of girls".

I dunno, I just did it because it was fun, not really interested if they didn't like my rendition of Rich Girl or Night Boat to Cairo, ended up laughing like a damn idiot and decided to pick up the game because it felt like a good exercise.
