Health Assessment by pick-up at the Disco

Apparently, strutting your stuff may be a lot more analgous to the old peacock than we may like to think. The way a man dances is a good indicator of his physical health, and may be one of the bases that a woman use to assess his physical fitness prior to deciding to breed with him.

Given that I make normal 'Daddy Dancing' look like a performance by the Bolshoi, and my wife's a good dancer, I have some suspicion that the hypothesis may have the odd loophole or two

... or does it?

Because they are more in touch with their feminine side? If I was not so awesomely testosterone-loaded then I too could prance about like Wayne Sleep on acid…

Are they? I can't say I've ever noticed. My eyes have this unfortunate tendency to track cleavage on individuals with high hip-to-waist ratios.

Hmm, maybe it was tripping over my tongue that impressed SWMBO?

Back to your original question, maybe they don't dance like Real Men? How do females of the non-Orange persuasion dance?

Linked from the OP:
BBC NEWS | Science & Environment | Birds show off their dance moves

I despair for the species when profs think this is cutting edge science. The entire article is shite.

True, the reporting is yours, but the prof is feckin' Harvard.
