boys will be boys

In articles in recent issues of Current Biology, researchers separately studying the dance fly and the rhesus macaque monkey concluded that males will be males. The male dance fly was found by a team from the University of Western Australia to sometimes present a female with worthless tokens for the opportunity to mate with her, but by the time she discovered their worth, he had already hit and run. A team from Duke University found that the male monkey will forgo his own rewards (juice) in exchange for being permitted to view pictures of female monkeys' bottoms.

Countless male animals fight each other for a chance to get laid...are you saying it is OK to start a bar room brawl for a chance to score? Countless male animals have (removed) with their female counterparts as soon as they hit reproductive age... are you saying it is OK to seek out 12 year old girls for pleasure?Why stop drawing parallels at mammals? Some female insects eat the males head off after intercourse...I don't know about you, but I don't think I'd enjoy that type of aft-play.I know you were joking and so am I (at least I hope it came across as a joke )...but the scary part is many people really do try justify their actions with that type of "animals do it" rational. Personally, I think human beings should be smart enough to know what is right and what is wrong regardless of genetic tendencies.If anyone is interested, here are the stories presented by drunkenvibe:http://www.livescience.com/ani....htmlh ... ne....html
