Masculine vs Feminine Walking Style and Body Mechanics with Todd Martin MD
Masculine vs Feminine Walking Style and Mechanics. What distinguishes a walking style that would be considered masculine from one that would be considered feminine. I will analyze the visual differences and the mechanical differences. Before I start, this doesn't mean that all men walk in one way and all women walk in another. Most men and women walk in a similar manner, but some women walk in a particular style that is considered feminine. Some men, intentionally or not, walk in a similar style. Not infrequently I have been asked by men to help make their walk less feminine. To do this, one needs to know what are the characteristics that are being perceived as feminine. Also, as a note, I am wearing a 2-inch Cuban heel in my tango shoes for the demonstration so this should eliminate any of the style difference that is strictly related to wearing a heel.
1. Arm Swing-The arm swing in a masculine walk drives clearly forward in the direction of movement. In a feminine walk, the amplitude of the arm swing will be less because the movement is driven more in the hips than in the upper torso. In a feminine walk done by many models, the arm swing may even be behind the body. 2. Hip Action-The hips move with little side to side sway in a typical masculine walk, while in a feminine walk the hip sway out to the side of the swing leg before the swing leg heel touches the ground. This may also be accompanied by a cross over of the feet. 3. Speed-There are two types of primarily masculine walks. In the first type, with the driving forward arms, the speed is generally quick and purposeful. There is another type of masculine walk, with a more wide based gait, where the walk may be slow and often the feet are turned out in the duck-foot manner. A typical feminine walk is generally slower than the first type of masculine walk because part of the movement is used in the side to side direction rather that dedicated to forward movement. 4. Foot Position. Foot position should be straight forward in both the masculine and feminine walk, but the second type of masculine walk I mentioned typically has turned out feet. This is commonly seen in many masculine male actors.
