I'm this close to get into a fight with my boyfriend because of this video.

Now this is dancing.

HUMANS (to the best of my knowledge) are the only species where the females advertise their sexuality.
For pretty much the entire rest of the animal kingdom it's the males chirping, singing, displaying and fighting to demonstrate their worthiness for reproduction at the female's pure discretion.

For the most part I would agree with that assessment, although you do see aspects of male posturing for the sake of 'mating' throughout culture. In China there is such a shortage of females that men are spending the first 10 years of their career living with multiple roommates even though their jobs are high-paying so that they can afford to buy a house. No house = no woman is going to marry you. There's too much competition.

But I suppose this one of the more extreme examples on the human side:

So perhaps in human culture, it's not so much that only the females vie for the males, but that both sexes vie for each other?

Oh, clearly the overwhelming majority of male behavior is tantamount to speed dating:

Male - Will you have sex with me?
Female A - No.
Male - Will you have sex with me?
Female B - No.
Male - Will you have sex with me?
Female C - No.
Male - Will you have sex with me?
Female D - No.
Male - Will you have sex with me?
Female E - No.
Male - Will you have sex with me?
Female F - Okay.
Male - Alright!

Times billions of males across human history.

In no other species are BOTH genders vying for supreme selection competition.
We are unique (and you girls don't need to try anywhere near as hard as you do. Trust me - we'll find you!)


Ray-ism: THOSE THAT FAIL TO REPRODUCE TEND TO PASS THAT TRAIT ONTO THEIR OFFSPRING.



DISCLAIMER: Yes I am a hetero male, we are disgusting pigs, but your gender keeps rewarding us for our persistent, bad behavior. :D

Ray, I don't thiiiiiiiink so! I'm no zookeeper but I do watch Animal Planet with my kids. And OMG, no WAY are human females the only flirts! The lioness comes to mind immediately -- they're way over the top. There are bugs that spray love potions (often just prior copulating which is in turn followed by devouring the male's head), even a street mongrel in heat behaves in a playful submissive manner -- okay maybe not a street mongrel, but a dog of any breeding let's say. The dating game? No matter the species, the gals usually play it better. Okay, gonna watch the video again...
 
Maybe she's in estrus.


I can't see the gyrating!!!
You could probably find her in the room using other senses.



PS - I don't skateboard or anything, I just watch a lot of skateboarding and surfing videos because they have a strange, hypnotic quality to them.
LOL!
That's perfectly okay. I understand what you're saying.
I don't kill a lot of people but I do watch a lot of people getting killed in movies because there's a strange, hypnotic quality to them.
:D

OMG! I thought I was about to die seeing E-Type posted here on Indietalk.:P
But as a swede i feel i need to tell his story.
Before you dismiss him as some weird pop artist the fact is he was a very talented rock singer and did metal stuff. Then he did like one pop/dance song for the lulz it was a smash hit. He tried metal again = no interest in him. Then he got a whole bunch of pop hits but he hates them himself but it earns him his living.
A funny thing is when he was to play at some music award ceremony they hired E-type the pop artist. He was so sick of that music so he did some metal songs and everyone went WTF!

Just felt the urge to somewhat protect our reputation around the world! :D
