hi everyone,
so Emily cant read this post..... sooooo shu Emily shuu.. your mom will get mad at me... and thats the last thing that i want.... unable to come back to the states for fear of Leslie
ok shes gone?
anyways i was in bio class today and i learned the most incredible thing! banoboes, they are are relatives of chimps, perform sexual acts in lieu of physical violence. if the alpha male is upset, other males lower on the social ladder will come over and have mock sex with him. how crazy is that! as my teacher said in class today, "its a true John Lennon society." make love not war man. this is in contrast to chimp societies where the alpha male basically runs a muck if he gets pissed offed, breaking trees and running around screaming.
and possibly the best part, i saved it for last, is that if the whole pack of banoboes get all excited and agitated, two females will actually start miming sex with each other to calm the crew down.... ya i know... i know... (insert inappropriate comment here)
anyways, i have to write a paper on biology, evolutionary factors, and such. i know i have a few biologists reading this blog (AJ, Sarah, Riley, Becky and kim (kinda), Dave (you kinda count but i dont know about the reading) do you guys have any good ideas? anything that you have studied that might make for an interesting paper?
