Dancing has historically played a role in courtship and mating displays, similar to how many animals use movement or color to attract mates.
In social settings (like clubs or parties), some women may choose to dance provocatively as a way to feel sexy, confident, or flirtatious, which can include attracting male attention.
In pop culture, music videos, or performances, sexualized dancing is often marketed in ways that align with mainstream beauty and appeal norms—usually targeted at heterosexual male audiences.
