He may have come down from the trees, but prehistoric man did not stop swinging. New research into Stone Age humans has argued that, far from having intercourse simply to reproduce, they had sex for fun.
Practices ranging from bondage to group sex, transvestism and the use of sex toys were widespread in primitive societies as a way of building up cultural ties.

Sex toys leaves evidence but the group sex, transvestism, etc left what evidence?

Sexual intercourse. So easy a caveman can do it.

Hmmm. Now I will watch the Geico commercials in a new light.

You know, they failed to mention early man’s use of cigars in his pursuits of carnal pleasure. Surely, a rather interesting oversight.

Experts believe research such as Taylors may help overturn false assumptions that sex for the purposes of reproduction is the form closest to nature.
Petra Boynton, a relationship counselor and health lecturer at University College, London, found the study refreshing.
So much evolutionary theory promotes the idea that humans, particularly women, are preprogrammed for monogamy, but that is often simply overlaying science on a pre-existing view of society, she said. No agenda here, nope.

No kidding.
I was hoping to see they’d found some fossilized vibrators, but apparently their main evidence is some statues.
I’m still trying to figure out how they get transvestism, group sex and sex toys out of a couple of statues.
OTOH, some other primates have pretty active and varied sex lives.

Timothy Taylor, reader in archeology at Bradford University, reviewed evidence from dozens of archeological finds and scientific studies for his research. And the evidence for his theories? Certainly Fox doesn't give any.
I wonder if this microbrewery is his website?

The article said — “He may have come down from the trees, but prehistoric man did not stop swinging. New research into Stone Age humans has argued that, far from having intercourse simply to reproduce, they had sex for fun.”
I guess they don’t believe in the book of Genesis, then. It’s presented a bit differently there.

the other day I noticed a picture, on the subway, of what appeared to be a primate. Its eyes, whether real or photoshopped, looked unmistakeably...intelligent, aware, human.
That got me thinking. Suppose, instead of being predecessors, they are successors -- that is, they are what humans become, over a long enough course of generations, if unredeemed, if left to their own predilection to turn away from their Creator.
Hey, it was just a thought.
To: cougar_mccxxi
And this know this..how?????? And why should we care?
To: cougar_mccxxi
a 30,000-year-old statue of a naked woman -- the Venus of Willendorf -- and an equally ancient stone phallus found in a German cave, provide the earliest direct evidence that sex was about far more than babies. Direct evidence?

Lucky dog or what?

"This is an example of how absolutely useless our major news networks have become..."Well at least they got the story right. Usually, the story is worse than useless. It's completely false.

You're going to feel silly when I point this out to you. They found the videotape, of course
