Like me, you may find it hard to believe anyone could see the dancer move in any direction except the one you see. You’ll have to trust me that you need to vote and see the results for yourself.

You need a fourth option: Dude, nipples!

1. What is the correct answer?
2. Can I get her phone number?

If you scroll up to where only her feet are visible, you can get her to change direction.

Good tip, Rusty. IF I scroll the page and only watch the grey reflection of her foot on the floor I can see her rotating in the opposite direction. Then if I look away for a minute I can see her rotating in the original direction (clockwise for me).

Most of the time when I first look at the picture, it’s clockwise. I can make the direction switch if I look away, but not while I’m watching, even though I know how the .gif works…

So now I’m more likely than before to see counter-clockwise movement.

My corollary to Rusty’s tip is that if you want to see her turning counter-clockwise block out the bottom part of the picture with your hand and watch her boobs.

Yes, it’s a sacrifice. But do it. For science.

If I scroll up so the bottom of the foot is at the bottom of the screen, and look away, I can sometimes get her to sway back and forth. But it’s so obvious that it’s her right leg extended, and the left shoulder is a pivot point, that it’s hard for me to let go of the clockwise direction.

Cold studio.

It was CCW at first, but with a half minute or so of watching it, I can make her spin either way at will. Maybe it has something with having trained myself to be opposite eye dominant and then back again when I was younger. shrug.

A few weeks ago I wandered across your blog and have been reading along quietly. I decided I could write my opening comment. Im not sure what to write except that I have enjoyed reading it. Nice site. I shall carry on coming back to this site in the future. I have also grabbed the RSS feed to get any updates.
