Better to be a Chimpanzee
Barbara Ehrenreich
Excerpt:
Another reason to make the human-to-ape transition
is the sex, at least if you're smart enough to declare
yourself a bonobo or pygmy chimpanzee. Bonobos,
who are genetically as close to humans as larger
chimpanzees, use sex much as we use handshakes -
as a form of greeting between individuals in any
gender combination. See an old friend, and you
start rubbing genitals together, with mutual orgasm
serving as a hearty "How ya doin', pal?" Plus, bonobo
bands are female-dominated, which should be a
special enticement to women investigating their
chimpanzee transition options. . . .
