Scientists have discovered what moves make a guy a good dancer, at least in the eyes of female onlookers (and, after all, what else matters?). It’s apparently very simple, which only deepens the mystery of why so many of us are such bad dancers. We just need to move our torsos and necks more. *forehead slap* Why didn’t I think of that before spending all that money on lessons?
OK, the sad fact is that almost none of us don’t suck at dancing, when left to our own devices. I’m not talking about ballroom dancing, where the moves are choreographed and improvisation is frowned upon. (Don’t believe me? You obviously haven’t watched Strictly Ballroom.) I see a lot of highly skilled ballroom dancing guys on a regular basis, but when the band breaks into Louie, Louie and they have to rely on their own partner-less imaginations…well, let’s just say it’s a sad thing to behold.
(Girls, don’t think you’re much better. It’s just that we guys have much different standards. Trust me.)
Further, I don’t think there’s any hope for most of us. Even with science-backed moves at our disposal, the best most of us can hope for is that we don’t fall down too often when attempting the Water Sprinkler.
Personally, I think my best strategy is to emulate the classy moves of Los Chulapos dancing El Chotis, to wit:
Most of those guys are rockin’ classy babes; I’d like to hear how the smarty-pants scientists explain that!
