'''Gait''' is a person's manner of walking. How attractive a man's gait is depends on many factors such as the width of the shoulders, the length of the forearms, upright posture, physical strength, emotional state, intentions, and rythm . The more exaggerated these traits the more attractive as well as higher status the man is perceived to be from gait alone. Women more than men discriminate between strong and weak walkers when assessing attractiveness of male gait.<ref>https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2017.01427/full</ref> Altering of the human [[femoid|female]] gait through use of high heels is also a female sexual strategy,<ref>https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2017.01875/full</ref> that | '''Gait''' is a person's manner of walking.
