  • hare meat with females double their chances of having sex with those females
  • More surprising was that males shared meat with females that didn't have sexual swellings, perhaps in hopes of future success, the researchers say.
  • he fact that the chimp males also shared meat with females not in heat could also add new fire to the debate about chimpanzees' cognitive abilities

      What do you think the male chimp's behaviour might indicate?

      That he knows, since he is doing something for the female now, he is hoping that in the future she will pay it back in the form of sex.

      To me, it indicates some common ways of thinking between us humans and the chimps

      This behaviour may indicate that the chimps have some sort of intellect. They are able to process the outcome of events, which in this case is a trade of meat for sex.

      The male chimps behavior may indicate further signs of social structure in the primate community and mating rituals are far more sophisticated than what we thought.

      that he really wants to reproduce and he is willing to trade it for his food. So it shows some sort of planning ahead and they are becoming more intellectual

      The fact that he is giving her meat even though she is not ready to have sex shows that he is planning for the future. The monkey is showing that he has the ability to give something in hopes to get something in return soon.

      It shows how the chimps are evolving and staring to make connections between giving the females meat and recieving sex

      This website is very interesting because it explains the promiscuity of teenagers and how it has changed. In many ways, teenagers are more conservative about sex than previous generations. There are statistics that explain the promiscuity of teens. Also, it explains the way teens have changed the old ways which was dating and THEN sex to sex THEN dating.
