Quotes with BONOBOS (3)
Sex is flagrantly separated from reproduction in a few species, including bonobos and dolphins.
I loved the zebras, the cheetahs, the fruit flies, the octopi and the rest. But The Nature of Sex “climaxed” with a species I’d never heard of before, “bonobos,” which the narrator also called by their Latin/scientific name Pan paniscus. I knew “Pan” as classical Greek mythology’s horned and horny god of the wild, so maybe I shouldn’t have been surprised. But when the bonobos started swinging onto my screen, well… what can I say? Today, I’ve got a whole book’s worth of stuff …
Though bonobos tend to be a lot hairier than us — and they don’t build houses or churches or Pentagons like we do — these primates look and act remarkably human. They often even go beyond the merely “human,” and enter the realm of the truly “humane.
