Sexy walk = unfertile?

Post Reply New Topic

So, do you ladies find yourselves to be walking unsexily while ovulating, and walking sexily the rest of the month?

Do you do this for any particular reason? Are you trying to attract men while you're not ovulating, and keep them at bay while you are fertile?

Or, is this strictly a phenomenon among neurotypical women, and women on the autistic spectrum do not act this way?

I guessed it was involuntary, but I'll let them answer for themselves if they wish to.

I just don't know what would subconciously cause such a walk-fertility relationship.

This might be a combination of a social conditioning and unconscious evolutionary trait. Humans don't always have sex solely to procreate. Perhaps, when and if they ever did, there might have been different results.

My theory is that women who are not ovulating are "feeling sexy" and available because they lack the fear of pregnancy. Women who are ovulating may be worried about their cycle, experiencing hormone shifting which affects mood swings and overall energy. I think we can act really animalistic even if we deny having that consciousness. For example, I have a "friend" who is a sloppy hippy, she acts like she can care less about her looks most of the time.
But every once in while she'll don red hotpants and lowcut tops when she goes out "on the town". Like a baboon. And she'll be attracted to very "anti-hippy" guys at this time. It just seems very hormonal to me.

Another thought would be that may be women are looking for "suitors" before they ovulate, giving enough time for courtship.

Well I mean, isn't the 'sexy walk' just a product of 1920ish Hollywood producers? What the heck does Hollywood know about what people think is sexy?

Hollywood shouldn't have much to do with it because,

I walk something like an unsteady robot. Is that considered sexy?

Well, I have a couple theories, but both of them involve discussion of bodily fluids and I'm not sure I want to go there.

Edit: Hey, I just thought of a possible explanation that doesn't involve the above.

Based on personal experience as a woman, I wonder if women are more inclined to be thinking about a specific man quite a lot during the fertile phase--so much so, that they pay less attention to their appearance in general, when he is not around? During non-fertile phases she may be less wrapped up in those thoughts and more accessible (in a friendly way) to those around her. Those feelings may be subconsciously conveyed through body movements.

Though, honestly, I find I get the most male attention when I'm already thinking about someone special to me. My eyes are happy and day-dreamy and the guys think I'm looking at them.

This is getting to be the wrong time of year for this, but what I was just thinking about doing was sitting out on a park bench, watching the women go by, rate them as sexy versus non-sexy walkers, and then approach them and say: "Excuse me, are you ovulating?"

Well, I think that I will only dream about doing the last part , but the first part is certainly feasible

Then, if I notice the same women walking with different gaits on different weeks, then I can infer....

Did anyone download and read the study itself? I think that it would have been a stronger study if the women were viewed on different days in their cycle, to see if women really did change their stride while ovulating. It looks like each woman was only evaluated once, and she may have been ovulating or not. Since ovulation occurs (I think) only during a couple of days, this group would be much smaller than the other. And the method of evaluation was quite subjective.

Of course, if women are wearing high heels, it will cause their butts to stick out more, which is usually sexier, depending on the physical qualities of the butt.

Well, I went out on a brief foray. It is cold and drizzly, and all of the women are ovulating. Except maybe one or two.

But, I don't know, where I am now, it could be that all of the women are constantly ovulating.

I suppose that it would make for a rather off-beat pick-up line.
