Why dad dancing is the sexiest of all

-

Good news for bad dancers everywhere: it’s better to let it all hang out than shuffle awkwardly in a corner. According to researcher­s from Northumbri­a University, throwing yourself about with wild abandon is the way to attract a partner, as it makes you seem more attractive.

My husband, God bless him, is a terrible dancer. What’s more, he’s a terrible dancer, and he doesn’t know it (or at least he didn’t until now). Whenever music comes on, he flings himself into the middle of the floor and moves about like an octopus having a fit.

I never know where to look, but there is such passion in his eyes and smile as he gyrates that it is impossible not to find him completely adorable. He enjoys it – to him, that is all that matters. And is there any more attractive quality than having self-confidence, even if it is only in relation to dad-dancing?
