Previous work has shown that a number of factors can affect perceived attractiveness of opposite-sex dancers. For women watching men, body symmetry, perceived strength, vigor, skillfulness, and agility of movement, as well as greater variability and amplitude of the neck and trunk, are positively related to perceived attractiveness. For men watching women, body symmetry is also important, and femininity/masculinity of movement likely also plays a role for both sexes. Our aim here was to directly compare characteristics of attractive opposite-sex dancers under the same conditions. Sixty-two heterosexual adult participants (mean age = 24.68 years, 34 females) were presented with 48 short (30 s) audiovisual point-light animations of adults dancing to music. Stimuli were comprised of eight females and eight males, each dancing to three songs representative of Techno, Pop, and Latin genres. For each stimulus, participants rated perceived femininity/ masculinity as appropriate, sensuality, sexiness, mood, and interestingness of the dancer. Seven kinematic and kinetic features-downforce, hip wiggle, shoulder vs. hip angle, hip-knee phase, shoulder-hip ratio, hip-body ratio, and body symmetry-were computationally extracted from the stimuli. Results indicated that, for men watching women, hip-knee phase angle was positively related to ratings of perceived interestingness and mood, and hip-body ratio was positively related to ratings of perceived sensuality. For women watching men, downforce was positively related to ratings of perceived sensuality. Our results partially support previous work, and highlight some similarities and differences between male and female perceptions of attractiveness of opposite-sex dancers.
