I think that bonobos would figure out what to do with a box of sex toys, seeing as how they already view the world as a giant box of sex toys. We're just better tool makers. Then again, I suppose that any bonobo with the manual dexterity required to make tools like ours would be pretty busy with those hands.(September 27, 2021 at 11:33 am)The Grand Nudger Wrote: I think what we're nattering away about with naturalistic fallacies, is the strong desire to insist that we aren't, or shouldn't be, animals... not that the good or bad can really be determined by looking at what animals do.
Doubly strange, in context - since....if we're really saying that people shouldn't be animals..then kinky sex being a thing only humans do is a mark in it's favor.
Bonobo chimpanzees love their sex. I mean it depends on what you mean by "kinky". There are no vibrating dildos or anal beads, but bonobos enjoy frequent sex, multiple partners of both genders, and different positions.
This "we're not animals" thing is something that some versions of Christianity obsess about.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
