> How are we aberrant, though--or more aberrant than other animals?
I think the differences between the sexual behaviour of people and the sexual behaviour of other primates (as our closest relatives) are very pronounced (hence we are abberant)
:-)
e.g.,
-we don't come on heat / in season. we can mate whenever.
-we (tend to) mate facing each other.i don't know if females (aside from humans) orgasm. don't know.
apparantly there has been a lot of work done on female orgasm. about why females get to orgasm.maybe so they find sex more reinforcing? lol. i don't know.
i think humans are strange because females tend to be more 'showy' than guys. whereas in nature typically it is the other way around. but maybe the 'showy' side of things is cultural. i don't know that biologically females are more 'showy' than males.
though beards. you would have been able to tell the adult males from across the savannah or whatever...
