Bonobo monkeys, hints on how to have world peace?
Arc @arc
Lately I've been reflecting on social behaviors of bonobo monkeys and how they might affect the world if humans adopted the same mannerisms.
First off let me say that Bonobo monkeys have been able to obtain a perfect peace in their society, partly due to abundant food sources, and another part due to sex. Rampant, casual, open sex. To them, sex is as common as a handshake or an apology. So what can we learn from these happy monkey sluts? What would happen if our world society was much more open to casual sex? These three words I believe are the cause of most wars.
"This is mine."
This is my girlfriend. This is my wife. This is my country.
Consider for a moment that there are no girlfriends or boyfriends, just people making other people happy when they need comfort. Our DNA is only a few points different than bonobos. From them we can learn what can counter aggression. Sex.
In summary, I believe that in order to get closer to world peace we have to come up with better birth control methods and eliminate STDs.
How would you feel about living in a bonobo-like society?

Sure... If you don't mind rape, STDs or unwanted pregnancies. Thing is, many do live very open sexual lives and it hasn't made them or the world anymore peaceful. We have wars mostly because of greed for power, wealth and resources, not because me so horny.

Nah, I like being STD free. Plus I like being a gentlemen, It's one of my things.
Also War doesn't start because of sexual lust like some silly tv show. Power is what most wars are fight for, Money, Resources and extremist are what causes most war. Its a lust for power not desire. War is also made for revenge.
Sexual contact will not stop me from killing a man trying to take my food. Sexual desire will not stop ISIS from murdering people, Sex will not stop any country from needing resources. Sexual intercourse is not the answer for war.... I just got trolled didn't I? Dangit.
