this is how stupid report studies are.


Male macaque monkeys pay for sex by grooming females, according to a recent study that suggests the primates may treat sex as a commodity.

"In primate societies, grooming is the underlying fabric of it all," Dr. Michael Gumert, a primatologist at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, said in a telephone interview Saturday.

"It's a sign of friendship and family, and it's also something that can be exchanged for sexual services," Gumert said.

Gumert's findings, reported in New Scientist last week, resulted from a 20-month observation of about 50 long-tailed macaques in a reserve in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia.

Gumert found after a male grooms a female, the likelihood that she will engage in sexual activity with the male was about three times more than if the grooming had not occurred.


simple logic would say it's an exchange of mutual affection and consideration of exchanging appreciation... which leads to the natural intimacy of living entities. they can't read the monkey's mind.. it could be their way of showing affection to and for each other and be their form of romance.. and maybe even their form of dedications to show they actually care to share time appreciating each other..

I can't stand these STUPID people who put the slant on stuff to try and sensationalize it.. as if they are promoting prost*tution.. because they are devoid of understanding the nature of appreciative relations of living entities.

I don't know what his program is, personally for hooking up...

but speaking in general.. not about him...

you might have a point in general about some men.. as some men do make a ritualistic fool of themselves for some patronizing and maybe even some sympathy sex which some women give.. and some even give token sex, and appeasing sex.. after they figure .. since the guy made such a fool of himself.. why not compensate him just a bit... but then it too depends if she herself may just be in the mood for a bit of pleasure and know that he will do even more rituals to give it to her

I personally don't jump thru any loops to get with a woman.. she either has her own desire to share with me.. or we just don't do anything.. for me it's a matter of self respect in that matter, I think I'm enough of myself as myself that I don't need to coerce some woman to get with me.. I think I hold as much natural desirabilty as she thinks she holds.. in a male to female interlink.. if nothing happens between us.. and if she thinks to consider it, that I missed out on something, she has to remember, she didn't get anything either.

I personally think many many men today go thru too much ritualistic drama to get with women and all it conveys to the woman is that she can dictate and manipulate him any way she chooses with her on and off reactions.. and it only makes the women become more arrogant and the men acting more desperate... and drives the women to run to their substitutions and then try and play it off that she got hers .. and he didn't get any... when the reality is.. neither of them have the natural pleasure of which is the male and female doing their thing..

the toys is just another form of mas*&b*tion, and both of them know ways to do that to themselves, to some levels of appeasing pleasure...

as a woman friend of mine told me many years ago and she still tells me this same thing today.... women get afraid of me, because they know they can't play that .. dangle the sex on a string, like a carrot on a stick... and they will have to get real or get on.. because it's not going to make me any less of a man, because she don't engage me.. besides.. my whole point of engaging is about appreciating.. and if it's not about that.. what the hell do I need to deal with it for.. I can relieve myself, and quite well, I must say.. if that is what the issue is..

even in this web site.. I can say what I say and say it with confidence, because.. I've never been here with some thought about being afraid that women won't like me becase I speak my mind.. I don't want them to like me .. unless they can respect me speaking my mind as well as I respect them speaking theirs. and when and if I choose a woman.. to get with.. it's because I like something about her demeanor.. that makes me want to act on the fact of her shapely butt or pretty face... I like the face and I like the butt. but .. it's the nature of the person as to whether I'm motivated to engage her. be it a mutual let's just f, or let's share some enduring appreciations, or let's have some fun... that's all a matter of what communication develops.
