ANT211H5 Chapter Notes - Chapter 1: Natural Selection, Hominidae, Human Sexuality
Document Summary
Humans have the weirdest sex life compared to any other animal . Other animals live independently unless they are mating to breed. These females are most attractive to males on these days, others they lack arousal features. They only have sex when they have in this period: sex is not for fun, it"s for the purpose of fertilization. It is different for humans, dolphins and bonobos: menopause does not exist for other animals. We might think that other animals" sex lives are bizarre, however compared to the thousands of other species, we are the one"s in which are bizarre however we cannot see that as we are bias. Some species, such as europeans birds do fall into partnership with their mate for the entire breeding season or sometimes for life. Resulting in both the females and the males jointly caring for their offspring, however this is rare.
