Sexual intercourse plays a major role in Bonobo society, being used as a greeting, a means of conflict resolution and post-conflict reconciliation, and as favors traded by the females in exchange for food. Bonobos are the only non-human apes to have been observed engaging in all of the following sexual activities: face-to-face genital sex (most frequently female-female, then male-female and male-male), tongue kissing, and oral sex.[1]
Sexual activity happens within the immediate family as well as outside it, and often involves adults and children. Bonobos do not form permanent relationships with individual partners. They also do not seem to discriminate in their sexual behavior by gender or age, with the possible exception of sexual intercourse between mothers and their adult sons; some observers believe these pairings are taboo. When Bonobos come upon a new food source or feeding ground, the increased excitement will usually lead to communal sexual activity, presumably decreasing tension and allowing for peaceful feeding.
At first it sounded like a horrible story but its kind of sweet the more we learn about it...../s
Gives new meaning to Planet of the Apes. So that's what the world is coming to! Ewwwww! [runs screaming from keyboard]
I've always had to do the feeding thing first.
Humor aside, this is a tragic story. Seems like this young girl needs some type of loving relationship in here life and has unfortunaltey ended up in this mess.
Really seems to be heading that way . . .
Sounds like some sort of long-haired, pinko, atheist prevert hippie commune to me.
Where, exactly, in California is Bonobo?
