A Wodaabe man performs a dance of male beauty, showing off the whiteness of his teeth and eyes at a festival in InGall, near Agadez in Niger on Friday Sept. 26, 2003. The Wodaabe, a nomadic West African tribe, value male beauty and are taught from an early age to look into mirrors to consider their appearance. The Wodabe men perform a dance to compete for honour and selection as the most beautiful man by women of the tribe at a festival celebrated at the end of the rainy season. (Photo/Christine Nesbitt)
