dancing

‘Boom Boom, Out go the Lights’ comes on the radio while we are working in our room.

Baby: “I’m dancing!” (shakes booty)

Mom: “Why are you taking off your clothes?”

Baby: “I’m dancing!”

Should I be worried?

In my continuing effort to blind you with science:

It’s true, dancing does lead to sex - Science - Specials - smh.com.au

men with the best dance moves have the most sex appeal.

The finding lends support to the idea that dancing is a way to show off high quality genes and good health - both indicators of a top quality mate.

Charles Darwin was the first to suggest that dance was a courtship signal in animals, but there had been no studies of the relation of dance and genetic or physical quality in humans until now.

In a study published yesterday in the journal Nature, William Brown, of Rutgers University in New Jersey, looked at how dancing ability correlated with a person’s body symmetry, a typical measure of the quality of a mate in evolutionary biology.

Across a wide range of species, less-symmetric bodies are associated with increased disease and poor reproductivity.
