Apparently Monkeys are Way Ahead of Us

According to a new MSNBC article a study states that monkeys "pay" for sex by grooming females, and that monkeys may treat sex as a commodity.  Further, the value of sex appears to be impacted by supply and demand, ie. a larger supply means less grooming required on the part of the male monkey.  

Hummm.... wonder what followup research will be generated by these findings?

I took an anthro class a while ago in my undergrad that was pretty cool. Apparently, in the bonobo population, women are dominant. Men can be attacked and castrated or killed for not revering this dominance. In this population, though, sex was very common not only at feeding time to get extra food, but it was also m-f, f-f, and m-m. It was very interesting.

Furthermore, it's very common in the chimp/bonobo/etc... populations for food and sex to go hand in hand.

Women control the supply, so they can demand whatever the hell they want!  And us men just keep going along with it.  Every one of us.  And happily so.  That's because we know just how sweet it can be!

And we are them?  Its proven scientific fact that the only difference between humans and monkeys is the poop throwing gene.


. . . which doesn't mean anything to them, IMO, as monkeys also haven't evolved finger-fucking gene either, but that part has been poorly studied.

Let's see your freaking monkey do THIS.

Although I have to admit, they masturbate like champs, not chimps.

They finger fuck. They do all sorts of shit. That anthro class showed lots of videos that were so detailed I began to refer to it as my monkey sex class. All we needed was the cheesy music.

They finger fuck, they rub, they hump, they do it upside down, on top, on the bottom, standing, scissoring, they 69, they do it all. Those are some skilled fucking monkeys. They know how to get off. I think they invented the kama sutra before it had a name.
